was sleeved March 7th. I feel like I'm doing well. My eye sight is blurry. My incisions do burn. Gas is still working its way out. I too am a big Water drinker so its hard to just sip. I gained 10 pounds since surgery. I am going to stay off the scale till my next dr.s appoint. It is not a good feeling to step on the scale and see that gain. But I know its just the way it is.

What is unjury broth that everyone is talking about.

I bought the Unjury Protein broth stuff and I can't eat it!! Just the smell made me want to vomit!! I'm not sure if that's what everyone else is talking about....

I cant handle my Protein powder! It smells so nasty to me. I also need a ready to drink one because the blender adds so much bubble to it. Idk which one to get.

I buy the premixed premiere Protein from costco. It's worked for me!

I was sleeved on Thursday, they had trouble finding a vein to put the IV cannula into so I was punctured three times in the left arm before surgery and woke up with an IV cannula in my right arm but I also had a bruise near that cannula so I know they tried and failed to insert one there as well. I've also had 4 blood test done due to getting cellulitis in my left hand so I was prescribed antibiotics to help with the inflammation. I've also been given potassium given to me which really hurt going in besides that I've also been given anti nausea medication, anti reflux medication

However, on the upside I've been sleeping well had little to no gas pain and well being going home tomorrow

I drink the protien shots. They are a bit to sweet but I work it out. I am so bloated with this gas. I just want to get through this week. Who said they lost 35 pounds already. WOW. I want that to be me. I lost 8 in the week pre op diet but I gained 10 during the stay at the hopital.

Where do I find this powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury broth. Does it have protien is that why it good to drink it?

It hurts to sit stand and lay down too. I found a position and took a 2 hour nap. I can't wait to feel better.

I had my surgery on the 5th and the Isopure Protein Drinks have been a lifesaver! I'm still working on hitting the minimum Fluid and Protein intake. I need at leat 40 grams of protein and 42oz of fluids. This is harder than I thought it would be but I'm going to do it!

Sleeved on Monday, the gas pains are getting better, although the minute I take a sip of Water they start, only with water. I can drink tea and broth. I'm seriously thinking about jumping ahead to some creme soap. I can't so tired of the tea, water, broth. I don't like most favored stuff so popcisles or Jello aren't an option. My diet says clear foods for day 1-7 but reading here, tree seems to be some latitude depending on different doctors. I haven't been able to get pass 36-40 oz a day yet.. Amazingly enough I had a small bowel movement this morning. Who'd thought I'd get so excited over something like that.. I guess I needed visible proof that everything is functioning as its supposed to be.

I had my sleeve on the 6th and all went well, not to bad on the pain but the gas has been terrible. I have had 3 watery bowel movement which have made me very careful, I to have learned to never trust a fart. I have been having a hard time getting my protien and Water but I think that with time and research we will all get very creative. Good luck to all!!

      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.
