My nurse said about an ounce to 2 ounces every 10 minutes. You will do great. Look forward to your updates. I am 2 weeks post op today. Keep smiling!

All is good. I've been post-op for 7 hours. I'd be asleep now if I hadn't been woken up to give my vitals. I haven't even been asked to walk, yet. Which surprises me. I'm feeling no pain right now. Just had to get past throwing up and dizziness for a few hours right after I woke up. Congratulation to Rachel and everybody else. I keep dreaming of trying on smaller and smaller sizes. Yay to us all! Good luck and speedy recovery wishes!

I'm 13hrs post op. it's not as bad as I thought. I've walked 3 times but I asked too. My doc had to remove a lot of scar tissue, also need a hernia repaired at a later time when i loose 150lbs. Anesthesia wearing off I feel a lot of pressure. Not painful just uncomfortable. Morphine pump is the best! Waking up was horrible for me. I felt a lot of pain for awhile cuz they had the wrong chart for me, so I had to wait extra long for meds, I was weeping. They actually had a another ladies chart with the same last name as mine. As I was waking I could hear the nurse freaking out. I'm also itching like crazy. Are u fb?

I've been allowed ice ever since I got to the room. It sure helps. I got woken up every 1.5 hours last night and I still can't pee on my own. I sure hope you get a drink soon.

Pain pain pain and more pain. Thinking post op infection no temp tho. But my open incision site is so tender and draining the pain is radiating from front left side around to the left side on my back. Going to see surgeon. Worst I have felt since waking up in recovery.

How are you feeling today?

Yay! I should get to go home today. Have you been able to pee, yet? I'm still waiting. I'm about to ask for a catheter for the second time. I hate having to pee so bad and not being able. Otherwise my pain is not as bad as I thought either. Congratulations to you!

      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.
