Surgery Went Well



Recommended Posts

I had surgery at 715am..had some scar tissue removed and have to have a hernia repaired at a later time but overall...i really cant complain. No pain just uncomfortable...the gas was horrible in recovery but has been very mild today. Thank you God. Im ready to get this life change started! :)

wonderful news. So happy the gas pain is lessening. I think I am afraid of that more than anything, I have dealt with that after other surgeries and c-sections, so I know it can be bad.

I have a big smile on my face for how well you are doing.

Praying for continued healing and comfort. And welcome to the beginning of the new 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.
