I cannot get enough Fluid in. It hurts so much to drink anything. I can feel it going down and into my stomach then it spasms. I take the meds prescribed but then I just sleep still not getting fluids. I walk and walk and that did help the gas in the chest. I told myself before getting sleeved that I would not let myself regret it, but the mourning of food is killing me. I understand it will get better and I try not to dwell but having difficulty.

Maybe you are drinking too fast...sip slowly. I get a lot of pain if I gulp or drink too many sips in a row....it has been a hard adjustment for someone like me who ate superfast all my life.

I got sleeved Oct 16 I'm 5 days post op, what helped me with liquids was to use a teaspoon to slowly drink my broth, lemonade, chamomile tea and iced Water up until I got discharged from the hospital, right now I'm drinking all 64oz + without any problems. Best of luck on your recovery.

      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.
