It hasn't been too long for me yet.. I have say that the walking helps. I walk every hour then try to stay standing then rest.. Still need the pain meds though .. Can't wait til I don't! The sipping bothers me.. One day at a time

My surgery was at 7:30 this morning. I was sooooo exhausted that I have slept all day! I did get up and walk which was not to do at all. There is pain but it has been controlled with the drip and a of yet have not felt really sick....looking forward to all the positive changes that will transpire for me due to this surgery and my determination. For everyone who is going through surgery in the coming weeks and months....keep your eyes on the prize and keep moving forward!!!!!

      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.
