Surgery Was 4/9/12



Recommended Posts

Hey yall :0) I was sleeved almost two weeks ago, had no nausea, no problems and felt fine except for soreness the whole time. I dont really feel hungry, but my mind still wants to eat. I think that on lik eday 4 i ate a cracker in tiny bites that i was dipping in veg Soup juice. the next day i started eating a couple of cheez its. i ate part a vienna a few days later. Every day i try a little taste of some kind of food that is around (after chewing it forever). I have had no problems at all. I just wonder if anyone else is going through the same thing. I want my surgery to work bc i spent a lot of time thinkinga bout it and i had to pay for it all out of pocket, but i jus think my journey seems so different than most of the people posting. I am not scared to try things. My goal was to be able to eat most of what i want but not be able to eat nearly as much of it. i still want to be normal, ya know? im not trying to hurt myself, I m just a lil more daring thatn some i guess. Anyone else like me out there?? i go back to the dr tues and i have lost like 18 lbs so far, i get he majority of my Protein and i know all of the rules and what i am supposed to be doing. i just feel like mybody is tellin me something different sometimes.

      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.
