Congratulations on your surgery! It will take a few days to bounce back, you are still healing. Check with your doctor on when to start your supplement. Stay on course, you'll do great!!

You're welcome! I'm two weeks post op today and I understand! I always look at my sheets to make sure I am on what I should be and, luckily, they have a list of Clear Liquids, full liquids, etc, which has helped me A LOT! Oh and sugar free popsicles as well! I got the twin pops in a clear bag from Wal-Mart and they are different flavors. Just to mix things up a bit!

I was sleeved 6/26 . I am able to drink /eat Protein Shakes, broth, water,Popsicle and Jello. I can get my suggested Protein from 2 shakes but it ins't enough calories. The other elective drinks don 't add many calories. Should I just drink 1 or 2 more shakes?sorry for the dumb question. I wasn't sure if that would be too much protein.I feel a little lost.

I don't think it will be too much, but it will help you down the line when you need to meet that protein because you know you can do it. I only do 2 4oz shakes right now, which for mine equals 200 calories and 46g protein, but am going to up them tomorrow. I also am not getting too many calories, but I start mushy foods tomorrow, so yay! :D

Maybe try a small bite and see. If you don't try, you'll never know! I'm sure you'll be okay if you are getting your liquids and Protein in.

      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.
