Well, I'm back sorta they will be moving me out of icu today. In a lot of pain and discomfort gas plus muscle and tummy pain, but I guess thats normal.

Was only able to do 2 laps yesterday and it was rough.

Haven't tried food yet, doing barium test in an hour, then if that goes well Clear Liquids.< /p>

Hows everyone else doing who was sleeved yesterday?

July 2nd sleeved here too, new to the site! So many wonderful people and threads here!

Post op 3 days.. All in all I feel like everything is going great, I haven't taken pain meds in about 22 hours now. I'm not feeling too much pain just gas pressure that comes and goes. Almost feels like labor contractions...working on learning what I can eat and how to SIP drinks! So far so good! :) would love to know more about your personal experiences. The good the bad and the ugly!

      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.
