Very sluggish and couldn't get liquids in- didn't want them. I too have a pain on my right side. Doc told me yesterday that can come and go for no reason or twist wrong as the biggest incision is right there thus pulling of the muscle but you really should at least call your doc. You'll feel netter

Y'all pray for me' date=' I don't seem to be doing as good as all of you guys... My side is swollen & I don't feel I've lost any weight since last Wed.. I can't seem to get many liquids down - today in try'n to get in 2 Protein Shakes & more water... You all are losing so much weight & I don't think I am... Maybe b/c my stomach is swollen & irritated & inflamed...

Hey everyone, yes I went from goin to the ER & have just been brought to a room, so back here again from just be'n here a week ago... They did a CAT-SCAN & I'm waiting for the Dr to come let me know what exactly is wrong besides me probably being dehydrated but ik it's something goin on w/ my side b/c the pain really hasn't subsided since I left here...

On top of all that ig b/c I'm so dehydrated they have serious issues w/ getting an IV in... So they had to stick 4 times to get an IV in & now the 4th one has my arm swelled up so they had to take that one out & now I have to be stuck a 5th time to get another IV started... I'm so discouraged right now & I want all this to go away & be able to eat & feel good & lose weight & not be in pain... When they weighed me in the ER I've only lost 3lbs since surgery date... During my CAT-SCAN they did say that I had a lot of air in my stomach which means I'm still swole & I can see that on my left side which is hurting...

Just wanna feel better - glad that all of you are doing so well & glad for you alls weight loss & I hope in the next few weeks I can catch up to you guys...

Oh I'm with u honey. And they will pump u full of liquids which will undoubtedly help u sooooo much. This is good that you went in. The pain I have is from incisions. I hope yours is too. Praying for you! Keep your chin up and know that you're not alone. I'm right there experiencing this with u. Just two days ahead ;) KK?

What I want to know is I go for very short walks- and now calves cramp up. Why? Find it weird. Anyone?

      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.
