SpaveDust, so far so good! Surgery went well, mo complications and with an hour or so post-op ibwasbup doing laps. I have discomfort when intake andrii, But its not horrible I've had so far 24 ounces of Water.

One thing to beware if - I'm an ice person. I love chomping in ice. They caught me at the ice/water station and totally busted me before I could have some. Apparently ice can make you tummy spasm. So all I've had is room temperature bottled Water :(

As far as the staff. They are all fantastic :) a little noisy at night, but with some meds on board I got some rest. I haven't had a lot if pain. The night nurse insisted I take pain meds every 4 hours. I suppose that's not a bad thing though.

Itsme.. Glad to read you're doing so well! Congrats!

And goodness me.. If you don't need the pain meds then tell her so..! Unless it's an OTC pain reliever, Don't let them push narcotics. I'm a firm believer they slow down recovery, or at least slow you down from getting back to normal living.

Again.. Glad your doing well, and hopefully we all can gather some day :D

Hi there... yes I normally go to that meeting... I had to work on the 14th but hope to be there next month. It is on the 2nd Tuesday of the month. Great group of ladies! We could use some fellas though if any of you dudes want to add a little diversity to the group... :)

      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.
