Want to know what liquid I live on? Trenta (30oz) iced passion tea with 3 equal (my personal favorite artificial sweetener) and no Water from Starbucks. It's one of their cheapest items since it's tea and well... it's tea so it's not bad for you! It's so delicious and makes getting in a big chunk of my daily liquid in so much easier.

That was my strategy too. I only took pain meds at night and got to sleep through. :)

I had to stay an extra day because my heart beat was elevated when they took my vitals. The rest of the day: perfect heart rate. Why? Because having my vitals taken makes me anxious. I explained this but no go, I was so upset at the time lol

Just walk and walk again. That will get the gas pains to subside.

My bed is much more comfy than the hospital one. The pain isn't too bad but I did take the roxicet and something else to help me sleep. How long are you out from work? So far I'm going back on the 6 th.

My surgery is Monday!! I'm sooo nervous for the pain :(

Try not to be. I was at first, but thankfully I didn't have any pain besides gas pain.

      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.
