Dang I wish I could say the same thing. Surgery was. Wry difficult took 5 hours instead of an hour and half. My liver was a lot bigger than they knew. Hernia was hard to fix. I still have no clue when I will be home. Tell me about yours how in the world can u feel great?

Well I am still in hospital. Any ounce I eat drink goes straight out. It is crazy not sure why. Everything seems to be an issue for me. I wish my dr would of done a liquid diet before surgery. I guess my liver was really fatty!! And I had a hernia is had to fix. I was on table 5 hours when it should of been 2. I just want to go home a d try to recoup. Glad you are all doing well. Does anyone have diarrhea?

      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.
