Had my surgery at noon today and so far i am not doing to bad. For up to walk a few times. I think I'm being released tomorrow have some gas pain but the morphine is helping. Really excited now to get this going. I was in a three day liquid diet before which i handled surprisingly well, is amazing what i can do when I have to . Before surgery i was really hungry now I'm not which is a good thing. How is everyone else doing.

Glad to hear your doing well. I'm not having gas pain but i am having a lot of pain in one of my incisions. I had a hernia repair too so i am wondering if that's where the pain is coming from. I'm uncomfortable and I'm actually craving food which is worrisome. How are you doing with that.

      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.
