After having my bypass on june 11 and emergency surgery due to internal bleeding from blood thinners on june 13 i am finally out of the hospital and on my road to recovery! Feeling upbeat and ready to pursue my new life! Craving solid foods so bad tho! Lol i also stepped on the scale thinking i would be down after eating nothing for over a week but i ended up being up 14lbs from the day i went into surgery?! So bizarre!

That's just hospital fluids. It's not a real weight gain. I'm glad ur doing better and out of the hospital

After my surgery I weighed 13lbs more. After a week I was down to pre-surgery weight and the real losing started. Give it a week or so and you'll see a difference. :-)

      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.
