I had surgery May 13th. Just came back home. A bit sore on the left incision. But active and started doing errands. Constantly thirsty.... Is that normal? Lost 17lb so far since surgery

Great news. Being thirsty is normal. Your body is telling you that you need more liquids. But happy to hear your well. Gives me more encouragement. Only 3 days left for me.

I am on day 6 of 14 of the liquid preop diet. I was getting discouraged as I didn't feel I was losing any weight. I was on vacation for the last week and tried hard to do good. I only had a few bites of food on one day and some watermelon along the way, but mostly shakes and Jello. This morning I weighed myself and I am down 9 pounds from May 2!! Only 9 to go to the weight nut wanted me to be at! This gives me so much motivation for the rest of the week! Surgery week from Tuesday! I am so ready!

Good luck to all surgeries this week! I will be thinking about all of you!

      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.
