Are you taking anything for heartburn? I was getting similar issues and my doctor prescribed me something for heartburn and it fixed it.

Thats what the doc gave me prilosec but in generic form so my insurance would pay for it. I had no more issues other than the rumbling that I still get once in a while.

I agree with eveyone here. I wouldn't be doing so well with out my doctor prescribed prilosec. Have you called your doctor and told him/her?

I probably sound like a broken record, but I don't want anyone to go through what I did. Anytime you are having trouble with eating, call your doctor. I don't care how normal everyone says it is, your surgeon got paid a zillion million billion dollars to treat you and I think you should call him. Good luck and keep us posted.

      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.
