How are you doing sleeve sister?

I'm doing pretty good. My doc told me to use children's Tylenol for pain management, but it's way too sweet. My new tummy does not like it. So we're working on that. How about you?

Day 2 stinks. Walked had my leak test and that just put me over the edge. More gas pain and the tummy is MAD grumbling like crazy...and that hurts. Toradol is doing the job though. i don't do well with narcotics. I wonder what they will send me home with. Had 2 watery BMs and really not having problems drinking. Home tomorrow!

Just Do It!!!

I didn't have to do a separate leak test. Doesn't sound like fun at all! I had my hubby go buy some Tylenol rapid release tablets....way better than the liquid! Getting more Water in this morning than I did all day yesterday, so things are looking up. Will they let you take anything for the gas? They wouldn't let me in the hospital but in my discharge papers, they said I can take gas-x as needed. Hope it gets better for you!

      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.
