Hiii hope everyone is doin great some days are getting really close for some yeeyy you all will get there and i can't wait to see posts ....i myself have had a decent recovery surgery like i said b4 went great i am a week post-op today i stayed an extra day in the hospital because i started to get fever but thankfully it was nothing bad and not too high, the one problem i have had is Protein i have not been able to do any protein at all i am unsure if it was texture, flavors, etc but one of the nurse practitioners called me today to follow up and i was able to adress my concerns she gave me other ideas for drinks i can use for getting my protein and my dear hubby went quickly to get them, i have been on Water, broth, and crystal light soo i have been feeling extremly tired but hopefully i do better tomorrow once i start trying the new Protein Drinks. Anyways i tried going with hubby and kids shopping 4 just a few things i was out of breath and had to hurry up and come back home because i wasn't feeling it at all. I have been able to walk around the house much better now i made dinner with my daughter's help for my hubby and kids also got tired. My water intake has been much better well water with crystal light atleast and the chicken broth feels soo good on my sleevie i ordered some unflavored Protein Powder so that i can add it to my crystal light and broth to add some protein in my diet atleast that way i have had some weird sensations in my sleevie and in my chest area as i drink i am still unsure what it may be i get it when i drink plain water it almost feels like it causes my stomache some kind of spasm and i have to breath slowly and wait for it to pass and another thing is when i drink again mostly plain water its like water goes down into the empty sleeve causing air to come up idk really weird feeling lol i guess i'll figure it out sooner or later.....and finally from 222 when i went in on my surgery date i am at 209 soo far so 13 lbs in 7 days and everytime i look at the scale i feel soo weird and in disbelief so a total of 26lbs since i started with the preop diet ....we can do this! ;) xoxox

      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.
