I Cant Believe Im 4 Days Out !



Recommended Posts

I'm 4 days OUT like omg! I can't even believe I'm saying this before I was waiting to get clearance now I'm 4 days out! I know it's hasn't Been THAT long but I can really say I'm on my way now..Idk about u guys but I cannot get the whole 4oz down? I swear it takes me like 2 hrs but physically I feel fine I still have gas pain but other than that I'm cool. I don't have a issue swallowing or anything, burping yes! I wish I could just burp my life away at this point but right now it's just now working. I also wish I could fart (I know TMI) but I just can't! I haven't had any bowl movements yet idk if that's a bad or good thing yet. I have Been walking a few times a day but I'm just so short of breath it makes it's hard. What I ate today was Water, 2oz of special k Protein Shake and a sugar free Popsicle tonight im gonna have some 4oz Tomato Soup. I'm not having any craving for anything usually when I see food commercials I'll start my cravings streak..but I've seen 7 commercials almost back to back for food and haven't had one thought about eating at all..I'm guessing that's a good thing right?! Well I'm due for a nap and I'll ttyl guys! :)

Sounds like you doing good....I was only getting 30 oz a day in at a week out....doing more each day....the Popsicles help with getting in it....and I was a burper too....but it felt so good to do it....that has slowed down now....everything gets better with each day!

Farts will come sooner or later so will poop your body is using everything it gets right now just to keep going. Give it time everything will pass

I'm sitting here trying to get 3 oz of purée Soup to go down and not having much luck.

Yesterday I found out what dumping was like Not Fun

Good luck keep up the good work

      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.
