Reporting in after surgery.... So far, so good. I did have a rough hour around 9pm when the anesthesia wore off. Had some terrible nausea and a headache. Feeling better now though, just thirsty. A little bit of abdominal pain, but very tolerable. Looking forward to my swallow test tomorrow and having some clear liquids! I hope everyone else's procedures went well today!

Less than 24 hours out from surgery - I'm feeling good, just a little low on energy and my tummy is feeling pretty tender - but I would say its uncomfortable, not painful.

Dr. said I may be able to go home today. I haven't tried drinking anything besides ice chips so hoping that goes well.

Hope everyone else is doing good!

Glad everybody is doing better. Nausea may be from pain meds when you start walking it will get better.

I'm home. I didn't have such an easy time. He first two days I was in a lot of pain, and very nauseous. I did have several moments of 'why did i do this to myself?' My nurses were amazing though. I stayed in recovery the first night and didn't get moved to a room until the second day. Feeling much better today. Still in pain, but no no nausea! For all you people that were able to get right up I applaud you! I couldn't really walk around until today the pain was more intense when I stood. It's slowly getting better and better though! I know this will all be worth it soon!

I got home today, so 3 nights in hospital. Boy oh boy, I didn't get it easy either. I was so nauseous day of surgery, and still fairly out of it the following day. But I've been walking as much as I could - stalking the wards at midnight. Helped with the gas pain, which I had around my diaphram and under my ribs. Once it moved up into my shoulders, heat pads were good. Today I thought I'd have a try at yogurt - 2 licks of the teaspoon and I was done. Weird! But 4kg (8.8 lb) down in 4 days. Now to concentrate on water/protein I guess.

Got home on Thursday afternoon. VERY painful recovery with all the gas. I got up and walked as soon as I got to my room . Every time they gave me morphine I got nauseous . I'm doing much better now. The first night home was rough sleeping but I got a full nights sleep last night. Just trying to make sure I keep getting my fluids in. I can't wait till I have a solid BM. Good luck everyone !!!!

      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.
