So today i got up from the floor and the spot right above my big insisiom on the left side started hurting really bad. I went to Walmart a few minutes and it just got worse so i left and came home and layed down. It felt ok while i was lying flat on my back than i got up a little bit ago and the pain is really intense! I keep having to lift my boob off of that spot it hurts so bad. I cant really stand all the way straight without it hurting even worse. Is this normal?? Or should i go into thw er??

Completely normal that happened to me about 2 weeks post op, and lasted a week. My surgeon showed me the tool that was inserted thru that site and then I was more aware of why I was in so much pain. Lol take ur pain meds & feel better!

      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.
