Omg I was craving chips and salsa and Mexican food so bad when I came home from the hospital. I hate the head hunger. I wasn't even hungry I just wanted it lol!!!

I'm telling it, it really is the "CAN'T HAVE RIGHT NOW LIST," we just have to make sure we support one another.

Dear God please give me strength!!! I really want to cry right now. My Husband made tacos for him and my Mom (who's here visiting and helping). This is just pure torcher. I just want to eat something so bad!!! I'm not even hungry. I don't know that I'm strong enough to make it some days.

Girl you have us along with him so there he's given you strength and support :)

Now after saying that I will say this FUNNY! I went and looked in the fridge last night after a nap and just wanted something BAD, so I looked at some COOKIE DOUGH,put two pinches in my mouth swished it around them spit it out. So there, WE ARE ALL GONNA GO CRAZY AT SOME POINT, WE JUST HAVE TO MAKE SURE WE DON'T COMPLETELY STAY THERE. LOL hope that gives you a laugh, cause I'm laughing just writing it :)

When that drain comes out you'll get some relief too! I felt atleast 60% better the second it was removed! Good luck!

I have had a good almost 24 hrs being home. Got to walk outside for a lil bit. Oh the gas has been wonderful. Not going to lie. I am touch n go with my pain meds. But since I just had surgery Thursday I think I'm doing well :)

Hope you are too :)

Definately will be better after the drain is out. I was thankful I didn't have to keep mine in.

      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.
