Hello all I'm new to this, I was currently hospitalized due to dehydration, My surgery was jan 31 2013, I don't want to eat. But they tell me I have to find things to eat. I need help or suggestions. Also I feel like a acidic pain in my belly is there any type of OTC drug that anyone could suggest?

I heard that Rx Prevacid works well for bad acid that over the counter stuff doens't work for... hope you find some relief so you can eat and drink again!

What I would suggest is that you call your surgeon's office and ask them what they recommend. They will surely give you good advice tailored to you........I have taken omeprazole for my stomach acid......it was recommended by my doc.... :) Get well 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.
