Peachee, I hear you! Hope you feel better.

I'm siting here in the hospital after my second surgery. I had an intestinal stricture. What a bitch. I was SOOO sick. Nothing would stay down. Horrible gas pains since nothing would stay down. Feeling better now but wow I wish I hadn't done this over the last 24 hours. Hoping things pick up now.

Heather I am so sorry. I hadn't checked much yesterday. I hope you are better, Sending you prayers and positive thoughts.

Gentle hugs my friend

Hi family. I just wanted to check on everyone. I've been very quiet. It's been rough for me starting out. A cold' date=' then thrush, and my picky pouch has issues with the antibiotics. My poor hubby is so worried. I'm sad with a little buyers remorse but I expect that will change when I'm back to feel better. I dislike being sick. <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':(' />

I hope all is well. Congrats to any new post op family we have. <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />

Dotted nails:

I have had the same issue with all of the rumbling in the stomach, my doc says its pretty normal and I have found that I needed a bowel movement to make it go away. I am now eight days out and find its a little better but still present occasionally. Keep up the great work!

Tstark: I had surgery Monday and the second was yesterday. I'm feeling pretty good. Rey said it was an easy but critical fix.

Head Hunger ugh! Love that! I too have that. I actually have to ask myself if I'm really hungry. So weird! I've also been going through a bit of depression but I'm getting out of the house so that helps. My surgery date was Nov 19 and I'm down 20lbs. Getting anything down is really hard. But I'm hopefully and I keep trying:)

Omg y'all my stomach is hurting SO bad!!! I've never felt this ever! Like something is stabbing and ripping up to my chest!y mom had gastric two years ago and she says something's stuck or won't go down, the only thing I ate today was mootopia milk and raspberries with cottage cheese, I felt bad all day but this is horrible now, I've been hacking and practically throwing up foam for 30 minutes, it tastes like raspberries?!?! Gross I know, but I was wondering if anyone who's gone through this has any tips?! I'm 19 days out. :(

Amanda, it maybe the raspberries. The seeds can be very irritating and you are not that far out. Are you ok now? I'd do liquids for a day to settle your pouch and call the dr if you are still sick. ((((Hugs)))))

      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.
