Make sure if anything u have your Protein Drinks and Popsicles at home for when u go home. Between the breathing tube and endoscopy, I barely had a voice. 12 hours after surgery I was given the ok for a Popsicle. I was in heaven. My pouch didn't tolerate Jello.< /p>

Was feeling pretty good until today. I have a pain just to the left of my belly button that really hurts. Have tried walking more, heat pad, and ice pack without much relief. Anyone else experiencing this?

I had that too. My surgeon told me it will take longer to go away as the site on the left was where they put the stapler in and removed items

Bird the one I had was a big jug that you chose a flavor pack and mixed with Water and the stuff. It took about an hour to kick in after I finished it all but be prepared to sit on the throne for an hour lol..... Hope ya have wifi! And honestly some moist wipes were quite soothing after

      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.
