I gonna try not to have any food funerals, but I do have a Chinese restaurant that I want to go to and I probably wil after my preop on Tuesday.

How are you? Sleeved yesterday everything going well so far.

Davalrie that's great! I'm doing well too just having some intermittent nausea. I'm trying to drink but I don't know if I'm drinking too slow or what. I don't want to drink too fast and be in pain, but at this rate, I don't see how I can get the 48oz in they want me to today.

I am home now! 2 nights at the hospital. Not very restful,as they wake you at intervals through the night. Felt pretty cruddy on night one, as expected. Day/night 2 were not much better. But day 3 and only have the gas pain in my left shoulder. It's not incapacitating, just bothersome!

I am not panicking over the amounts of anything that I ingest at this time. I just keep sipping.

Speaking of sipping, I am on full liquids, so I decided to have one of the shakes that I purchased from the center. So, I'm sipping away and realize am doing this THRU A STRAW! These shakes came "juice box style". I didn't care, kept right on sipping. I didn't die.

Well, going to sip on some beef broth now (sans straw)

Glad you're ok. The gas pain is no fun but it's not incapacitating. There are lots of people on here on some serious pain meds. All I got was toradol and I'm fine!

      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.
