So I'm 2 weeks post today. I am doing well on Soups and mushy foods. I have vomited a few times from taken that one bite too many. Ughh I hate that feeling. I now know when to stop because I usually belch or get the hiccups. I have no problems getting in the Water and crystal light. Protein Shakes are now disgusting to me but I have managed to get down atleast one per day. I am not itching on my palms and feet. This is so weird and annoying. I am walking 2miles 3x a week. Sometimes I do still experience stomach pain and pain on my right side after walking. How are all my fellow Sleevers doing? Feel free to share your experiences. Best wishes:-)

Hi!

I am nearly 1 week post-op and finally feeling human again! I get to start the non-clear liquids tomorrow....YIPPEE!!! I am with you that the shakes are simply repulsive, but I heard with the brand I still have left adding a teaspoon of Peanut Butter cuts the nastiness (and obviously adds a little more protein).

i have not yet met my daily requirement of Protein, but only drinking Isopure has been the factor. I am a protein *****, so I know i wont have an issue when I am done with Clear Liquids :-)

Exercise has been slow, but it is happening. I decided I will hit a mile today and plan to hit 2 by early next week. We have a lake near our house that is 2-miles around and I want to be walking it by the end of next week.

Thanks for your post. Mine is boring, but I am so thrilled to be writing it! This journey is going to be GREAT!

      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.
