Still waiting for surgery, I've been waiting all freakin day. I'm bored as hell, hungry and thirsty. My patience is running thin. I was supposed to be first and I definitely was not

Maybe you could ask for something to relax you a bit. Maybe then you won't think about being bored or frustrated. Idk...works for me sometimes...I think it's a Kolonopin kinda night anyway!

Sorry it took me so long to update for you guys. After surgery I was in quite a bit of pain from the drain site. It still hurts but not as bad. This surgery is waaaaay worse than my 3 c sections. I have just been started on Clear Liquids and this apple juice is yummy yummy. I'm tired, I keep falling asleep. I can walk fine but it hurts a little to get up. Gas pain has been in my chest... I brought gas x strips but was told I can't have them yet. The drs and nurses are all very nice. They are kind of non existent unless you ask for something but when you do, they are on it. My dad described our room as an oversized jail cell lol he is pretty high maintenance haha. The room isn't bad it's just very empty. All in all my stay has been good I'm just over this pain. I'll talk to you guys soon

      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.
