Today is my first full day at home since my surgery the 7th. I've been following the full liquid diet plan and I'm trying to stay as hydrated as possible. I walked on the treadmill for 10 minutes 2x today and I'm hoping to be able to do it again but it's difficult to get out of bed right now, my stomach is uneasy after dinner, I had cream of celery Soup strained and Sugar Free Chocolate pudding. Just wanted to share.

Congratulations on your surgery. Make sure you take it slow on the treadmill at first and get plenty of rest so your body can heal. All the best to you!

I too had the surgery on 1-7 but I am only on Protein Shakes Water broth and sugar free ice pops until next week. I have to walk 2x a day for 15 minutes my stomach feels okay but where the hiatal hernia was repaired still bothers me . I took a pain killer and it took the edge off. I hope this gets better:)

Congrats on your surgery as well, I'm hanging in there but my incisions hurt more today than they have earlier this week, without any drainage or discoloration but I've stopped the Vicodin and already lost 10lbs. How are you feeling?

congrats on getting through your surgery! it's nice to hear your progress. cream of celery soup sounds strange--I've never had that one ;) Are you hungry or just eating cause you're supposed to?

      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.
