I am home from hospital. Boy am I sore.

I hurt for you. Good luck and hang in there. Every day is better. I'm three weeks out and feel SO much better. You will, too. Keep your eye on the prize!

It gets better everyday. After week one post op, I really felt my energy levels start to increase and discomfort levels decrease.

Good Luck on the road to recovery!

Didn't have a great day. Lots of nausea' date=' cold, and some pain. Didn't eat or drink much today... Hope tomorrow is better![/quote']

Having liquids might help the nausea. If you have nothing or almost nothing all day you won't feel well. Try to keep drinking to at least remain hydrated. I hope tomorrow is better for you too. Good Luck.

Remember, Lifesaver, you have to get water/ liquids in to keep you hydrated. That effects every organ in your body and can cause nausea and dizziness. Each day is better. Even if you can't get all the shakes in, sip, sip, sip Water all day. If you are in pain, take those meds... That is what they are there for. Good Luck.

Even Decaf tea or warm chix broth! sugar free popcicles. You've got to stay hydrated. Try to force yourself. You don't want to go back to the hospital.

I did try a SF Popsicle today was very good. I am having chix broth this evening. Already got my Protein in

Don't seem to have a problem with it. Don't have a problem with Water either. So hope it keeps going like this for another week.

It's so scary though. Even if I think I am doing it right I am so afraid I will have a problem like so many of you have had. I don't want to puke never liked to puke and sure don't want to now. I hope we all feel good by our 6 month status and we never have to worry about all these hiccups in the beginning.

      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.
