How long until I feel normal? I am 5 days out and I'm getting my Protein and liquids. I just feel queasy and nauseous all the time. Incision pain is hardly noticeable-not taking lortab or Tylenol for that-gas x only helps for a minute.. Is there something I can do or take for the tummy yucks?

I was prescribed zofran for the nausea. Otherwise walk, drink Water, walk, drink water. It took awhile for me to feel normal, but started feeling better about 2 weeks out. Good luck!

Hey everyone☺

This is my first post!! I have found this board so helpful with all the information..

I had my surgery on September 11. I feel very good today and improve a little each day. No major complications & have found a daily routine to get in all the shakes/vitamins/calcium... plus abt 3 more pills a day. All the liquids are just almost too much!

Thanks to everyone for being such a wealth of info!! Looking forward to the new me!!

I would love it if you would list your routine. That is the one thing I am most concerned about is how to get everything in and when after surgery.

Wishing the best and hope you feel better and better with each passing day. Welcome.

      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.
