I'm surprised I haven't had many gas pains. I've had 3 tiny cramps, followed by 3 tiny burps and that's it. No chest pain or anything like that, like I read some people had. I have my heating pad ready just in case though

I haven't had to many either. My left side hurts a ton and the Meds are making me itch. Plus my left side feels like is sucked in.

Finally going home! They took my jp drain out a few minutes ago, and it was so gross! There was 2-3 inches of ribbed white plastic on the end of it. Felt really weird coming out. Glad to be going home for sure. Hope everyone else is doing well

I'm feeling so much better today! Came home yesterday and slept for a long time. Was up on and off all night. No real pain just still really exhausted. Swallowing is tough but I figure that will get better each day! Can't believe I'm not even hungry! Love it!!

I am home now, but I am feeling the gas right now. It's coming an going. I just wish I could burp real good. Fluids are going down slow, but it will get better! I understand not feeling hungry. It's crazy to me. Hope everyone is doing good.

      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.
