Just got out of the hospital and on my way home now. Just a speedy (hopefully) 2 hour drive. I will have to catch up on the post-op thread tomorrow, in between catching up on Dexter. :) I ate some cream of wheat and pudding in the hospital, did alright. Kind of felt like crap after eating a couple tiny bites. I will have to really figure out where my full feeling is.

I was sleeved on Monday the 25th! I came out of surgery by 10am and I was walking by 3pm! I am home now and I am having a lot more gas pain! The gas just rumbles around my chest an abdomen but I don't see a BM coming anytime soon, I'm just trying to walk it out! I've read that the first 5-7 days are the hardest so I'm just trying to push through! Stay strong and focused! Just think about 2-3 months down the road!!

Hope all is going well for y'all!!

My surgeon didn't let me leave the hospital until I had some good bowel movements. That included a depository and that didn't work much so the edema did the trick. I literally felt violated lol

That was the hardest thing for me too. I took stool softner and benefiber (beware ot becomes explosive) but man it was a relief! There is light at the end of the tunnel!

      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.
