Recommended Posts

My surgery went very smooth I am so happy that I did it. I had no gas pains didn't vomit just soreness . I am sipping on broth and Water very slow but it seems like my tummy can't get enough I can wait to get solid foods so that I can feel full.

My surgery went very smooth

congrats on having the sleeve, doing so well now, and continueing for a great recovery.

keep drinking alot of fluids - drink as much as you can. Dehydration is no fun.

even though you might feel like you can eat solids sooner than later, do all the proper stages that your NUT/dr. tell you.

you shouldn't jump ahead of yourself, just follow all the rules :)

enjoy the start of your new life

You know sometimes that hungry feeling is actually a healing of your tummy and sometimes it's actually just gas. I was sleeved June 4th and I'm still on Full Liquids. I am looking forward to pureed stage but I really want my stomach to heal inside and out. I know most people that were sleeved the same day as me are already on pureed and some are on soft food already and last night I tried 1% small cottage cheese (just three partial teaspoons and I mushed it and I chewed it) and my tummy turned and it hurt and I was like okay, not yet.

      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.
