Had my surgery on 4/16 and feel great. It's true what they say how things you liked before, you may not like afterward. While on the two week liquid pre-op diet I thought the various brands of Protein Shakes I had were just wonderful. Now, I can hardly stomach them. Guess I might be looking forward the mushy stage. Refried beans.....YUM!

Sleeved 4/18. Pain was a 3 out of 10 and nausea a 4 out of 10. All easily resolved with meds. Really gaing trouble getting the shakes a d liquids in. Lots of air getting swallowed and weird sensations, but better each day. I can't stand the favors that I liked just a week ago...but am doing ok. The first few days are hard..trying to get it all in when you're swollen. But is has gotten much better.

Good luck to all!

      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.
