Surgery went well on the 14th. I'm home now working on getting in fluids, walking and resting. The only part of the experience I didn't like was having to be stuck 6 times to get an IV the second day. Other than that, it was ok. I only took pain meds once. All I have now is a little gas that gets better each day. So far so good.

I was sleeved May 7th and haven't had any issues. I was kept 1 extra day in the hospital because of not peeing (seriously). I did eventually pee and was released.

I'm on clears for 2 weeks which seems like a lot to me but I have medication I take mixed into some yogurt. I have my 1st follow up appointment with my surgeon and NUT on Monday.

Overall I'm feeling really good and I can't wait to eat something solid but I guess I have awhile to wait for that.

Oh yes I remember not being able to pee even when you wanted to. I pee same day but I was seeting in the bathroom for a while and I let the Water run and that actually help me. By the way I was sleeve on may 6 and I do want too eat some solids for example yesterday I made scramble eggs for my daughter and ohhhh god I felt the temtation to eat some and I did, and it hurt like crazy so I stop I only try I bite but thay was more than enought for me. I will continue to follow my diet. I am in full luquids as well.

I had my sleeve on May 14 and a small hernia repair to my esphoguas. . I was really tired the first day The second day my gas was unbearable, I find it hard to get on the liquids down in the time fr ame given. . I'm hoping it gets better soon everything I drink I feel it moving around very uncomfortable. .

      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.
