Willi ever feel good again?



Recommended Posts

I have only had a few good days and. Am almost 4 weeks out. When will I be able to eat without pain, not feel nauseous and be able to drink without gagging? Very discouraged.

I am 8 weeks out and still feel pain when eating many times. Especially foods like chicken or veggies. The positive for me has been that I am FINALLY beginning to feel some extra energy come into my life. Whether it be first thing in the morning or after working out. Some people have been laughing because they can't figure out why i am not lethargic all the time like ousted to be 60 pounds ago. It can be so frustrating to feel like sh*t day after day, but you will get better every day. Hang in there!

      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.
