They already took my iv out less then 24hours

Awesome. At this time last week they were fighting to get a iv in my hand when i flat out said my veins roll and blow and not to use it. 10 mins later in was in my forearm. Today i feel even better. Still got some Water edema.

Good luck! Keep us posted! <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />

I am finally home. I had lots of pain from the gas for the first 2 days, so I did a lot of walking. I couldn't rest at night. This is day 3 and I am much better. My hubby has been a godsend. It's kind of hard getting the liquid down, but I guess my body is still adjusting.

I can't wait to join the rest of you on the losers bench! The 30th can't come soon enough. I have finally got control of this liquid diet. I do, however, find it quite curious how some doctors have you do a 2-week and others only do a 2-3 day diet, and some don't have to do one at all. I wonder what causes those preferences in each doctor.

I agree, also, post-op diets are different per each doctor as well. You would think this type of stuff would be universal after the amount of research that has gone into these surgeries . Makes you wonder...

      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?

      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.
