4 Wks Post Op Miserable



Recommended Posts

Mrs Igg.I just read this thread and I think her question was fair. Before you or your little posse start attacking others ask yourself this.Who cares for your special needs kid while you babysit this website? Looks like another act of selfishness to me! SMH! You even had the nerve to say thanks everyone.You are just an old bully!

Thanks for sharing your opinion. Nice to see someone join this site just to do so :)

When my son is not in school he is with either myself, my husband or his nanny. He has a feeding disorder...rest assured your concerns for him are duly noted. He's in great hands at all times. Right now he's doing his homework while I sit with him.

And I'm barely 49. To be an old bully I think I have to be at least 60 don't I? :P

Lux babe...how's it going today? I'm hoping slow but steady on the mend?

No vomiting for a couple of days now is surely a good sign :D

so many do that it's typical for doctors to prescribe prilosec or another PPO at the surgery. Call and get some asap.

Good :) They take a couple of days build up in your body to work, but most sleevers find them necessary for the first three months. I tried to go without them last week and learned I still need them. (I'm at seven weeks from my second surgery and three months from the first).

I was taken off my PPI at the 6 month mark. No problems with heartburn or reflux as long as I don't lay down after eating, or eat too much, (that actually happened to me last night with too much meatball Soup, a little too much broth and it had to come up) but I do keep some tums around if need be. Citrus acid is the only thing that still seems to be a bit much for me, so I have to pass up on the margaritas, darn it :o

Iggy - how's that claw holding??

      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.
