I'm so sorry you are still in so much pain. Lortab is a narcotic, what else do they have you on? Hope the pains go away soon. Saying prayers for you.

Just checking in, today is day 4 post-op and it was a little better, I get a ly of pain when I stand if I've been sitting. It gets a little to get out of bed and stuff, but getting better. Day of surgery I was 267 and today I am 264. Wish it was more but taking it A day at a time! my pain meds are the worse I actually dread taking them they are nasty but numbs the pain a lot :) I still get nausea here and there. But hopefully I'll check in tomorrow and I'm better than today! :)

      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.
