Recommended Posts

That's awesome that you are feeling good..yes that anethesia kicked me in the but too. She kept telling to breath becuase I hs s low oxygen level...what you eating so far? I'm was able to do my first full glass protien shake today.it was carnation instanst with chopped ice and it was good..I'm glad to hear you feel wonderful..its gets better!

So far I've tolerated cream of chicken and Tomato Soup without issues. I'm getting most of my Protein from Protein shakes and I'm okay with that as long as I never have to touch another Bariatric Advantage shake ever again lol!

You just reminded me I had issues with low oxygen in the hospital for a few hours as well. They put me on oxygen for awhile and it seemed to help. Also, even after 2 and a half bags of IV Fluid I had nothing in my bladder. They put some drug in my IV and it seemed to help.

Try some warm tea, I remember Water was hard for me to keep down without having that annoying pain, but tea seemed to help :-)

Ok now I am freaked out. No one told me going to,fast could cause a leak. I thought it was just about tolerating stuff and I have done fine. I don't want to do anything that can cause a leak. Wednesday I can start purée foods. They have good recipes here so I will use those.

Can't have fruit yet. I saw a buffalo chicken purée recipe on this forum I want to try. I don't mind soupy oat meal.

Hi everone I was sleeved on the 29th and I have no hungry pains at all, I really don't even have any craving for food. I'm having a hard time getting the Water and protin shakes down.

      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.
