You are perfectly normal for this phase. The nausea could be coming from the pain meds if you are taking any, and you should take them if you need them but ask them to give you an anti nausea med with them if they aren't already doing so. Keep walking it will release the gas from your stomach which will help with the pain and possibly the swelling, and keep sipping. Good Luck, enjoy the journey it's not always easy but it gets better every day.

If you are nauseous, as the dr for a patch that they put behind your ear, works wonders for me when I have any type of surgery. I might help you because you are not putting anything in your already sore tummy. Just a suggestion.

Perfectly normal. It's been one day after major surgery! Be easy, be gentle on yourself. As far as the pouch noises, it drove me crazy. It's called "grouch pouch" but it's normal too. It takes a few months to go away.

      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.
