Good so far. I felt really bad to at least the first 4-5 days post op. Just went for a 20 minute walk - not fast but got it in. It's so hot in St. Louis that it's hard to get exercise in.

I've had creamy chicken Soup, Tomato & Pasta soup pureed, potato soup pureed, etc. Yogurt works really well for Breakfast for me. I bought some unflavored Protein Powder yesterday to add to Soups and such. Looking forward to some crackers and a little more variety next week.

Still have little energy - definitely tired in the afternoon. Ran some errands yesterday morning and I'm done - no energy left.

How about you?

One week was on Thursday for me also. I don't think I have lost much weight cuz I haven't moved around much in the last week. Have been in so much pain. Pain was finally tolerable today so went for a little walk. Hopefully things will start to look up soon.

I took the Bariatric Advtg ones but they were awful. I tried the Centrum liquid and it was horrendous too. I finally gave in and tried the Vita Craves gummies and they are fine. Just chew, chew, chew.....at least I'm still getting them in.

The pulling will subside...it felt like my insides were gonna fall out but I can tell you I went for a 2nd walk and didn't have any pulling whatsoever. Hang in there!!!

      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.
