Way to go Cathy. So glad you are out of surgery and ok. I on the other hand managed to get sick yesterday. Went and got a Z-pack so now I hope I won't have any delays because of this. Sinus infection I think and hope that is all it is.

Thanks, Jimmy. I am feeling pretty good. Some crampy gas pains, but overall, I feel ok. Thirsty as heck cause they won't give me anything until day 2, but better than I expected. Looking forward to hearing all of your stories as well!

Today has been a little worse in terms of pain. I had that excruciating gas pain that I have been reading about. Hopefully the walking will help to get rid of it. I am finally sipping on baby cups of Water. they said I could go home today if I can get enough liquid down and if I want to. We'll see. I made the mistake of hurrying home when I had a c-section. Don't want to rush it but missing my kids!

Thanks for taking the time to update:) Was wondering how you were. It's amazing how a group of people can come together and be genuinly caring about people they will probably never meet!

Take your time, make sure you are ready to go home, physically & mentally. It's exciting to think of how things are going to get better & better from here on in. Your health and being overweight affect so much - things can only get better!

hey all, I WAS penciled in for the 16'th but now it's been moved back to the 30'th, just because the surgery scheduler screwed up. and to top it off, now the Dr. is concerned about the surgery because my body makes kidney stones when I do a high protien diet. My PCP isn't worried, he can prescribe a preventative medication to help with that issue. but it's still up to the surgeon.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
