I can here my husband and mother in law just don't remember seeing them. That's how my day 1 felt like I had my surgery out by 12:30 walking by 5pm boy does that help. Day 2 pressure pain on abdominal area super bad gas pains horrified left side of shoulder just kept walking as much as I could. 10am cathedeter removed peed solo by 12:30 again I just kept waking Ice chips wasn't feeling them but I had no problems with them just didn't have a taste for anything!! (Food commercial were making me sick) I felt better sleeping on the chair more than anything too. 3rd day I am up already I have very little pain on my stomach just sore I am sitting up now and dr said I will get liquids today.

I haven't weighed my self yet we are still extremely swollen and bloated. I been having my 3 meals which all consist of broth, pudding,or Jello , applesauce an apple juice. I don't even get near a 3rd of that in but with all my sips I feel content. Oh and sugar free Popsicle at least one :)

Good luck

      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.
