I am officially 3 days post op ! 1st day wasn't too bad although walking made me nauseous. 2nd day was better and I walked like ALL THE TIME . Today is my first day home and I have taken my lortab 3 times ! I feel great but the left pain in my tummy hurts like crazy ! It goes away and then comes back to strong !

Thank you guys for all prayers and encouragement ! I'm not really hungry and have been eating ice chips since surgery!

Again, thank you all do much.

I woke up screaming and crying at 3 am in the morning because I had never felt a pain like that !

Every time I thought the pain was coming back, I called a nurse to get some pain meds !

      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.
