Question: Did any of you sleevers actually need a robe in the hospital!? It's on my list of suggested things to bring but I don't even own one!

I've heard the hospital can give you an extra gown to wear like a robe for when you walk the halls... Hope that's true!

I didn't bring a robe or a nightgown to the hospital- you'll have an IV - IMO using their gown makes sense

it was just easier to use their gown, when i walked, robe was sufficiently tied in back - so there were no accidental "peek a boo" :wub:

besides, me, myself and I - only brought chapstick -wore comfortable sweats to hospital, made my tummy happy post WLS

for me, no cell phone, lap top, ipod, book - et al

i was in the hospital overnight, slept & walked most of time

i see your WLS has come and gone - hope you are doing well, not too much discomfort,

snoozing/sleeping - having pleasant dreams of health and happiness :)

good luck

speedy recovery

      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.
