I'm 6 days post op, I don't have the gas but I feel hungry still. Try walking the gas out, that's what I had to do after my c section. I'm hanging in there with only liquids. It gets hard, but I'm told it will get easier. I just want to see results.

So I have been feeling so good. I went in today got my drains and pain balls out. Came home felt great and then my 3 yr old was playing with her cousins and accidentally superman punched me in the belly. I'm not hurting but definitely way more sore for sure! If still sore tomorrow I'm going to go in again.

So sorry to hear you're throwing up. How are you feeling today? Have you called your dr? Maybe it's too soon for puréed foods. Hang in there!! Things will get better.

Hey everyone, I haven't been on here in a while. I have been reading & I am glad everyone is improving in life & doing GREAT!!!! I am so proud of everyone & myself included. It was a hard first week but it is coming along real good. My acid reflux is still giving me the flux...It still hurt like crazy to eat & drink especially when the food & liquid sits in the middle of my chest & don't move. But, I am going keep doing what I am doing because it got to be a solution for this. I have lost 30 pound & feeling great...Very energize & I love it.. I am soooo happy I did this surgery. It is life changer, I am looking forward to the day ahead of losing more weight. Other than the incisions itching & the acid reflux I have no complaints at all..Good Luck to everyone...

Postop day 13! I was wondering if anyone is still feeling swollen with sore incisions??? I'm down 21lbs and I feel great but my stomach looks and feels so bloated! I have been frustrated bc I can't get my Protein down but I just started puree chicken and Beans and eating yogurt and i'm finally hitting my goal of 60-70 grams a day! so things are starting to look up. Also how long should I wait before I can ride my bike?

      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.
