I was sleeved yesterday as well. No pain really from the surgery. This gas pain is my problem. Good luck to you. Where are you from?

Well I'm on day 4/5 (mine was late evening so not really 5 but more than 4) and I'm home. Feeling good. Still have some gas and getting used to sipping, or feeling the pain, trust me sipping is easier! I'd do it again I'm going to walk outside today, even in all this snow I think I need to start moving more and I know my dog does! She's been pretty good waiting for me but now it's her turn. Good luck Sleevers. Take care out there!

Hope so. It is so much better at home...cozy nesting for recovery. Just a different level of comfort.

Same with me. About 3-4 days post op. It's quite a struggle to get the proper amount of both in.

      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.
