I'm about 42 hours after surgery and feeling great. I was expecting so much pain and it hasn't been unbearable at all. I'm just doing what I'm told and all seems to be going well. I hope everyone else is fairing as well. It's still a little hard to believe that it's done that my new journey has started.

Yeah, my husband is probably getting tired of hearing me talk about it. But he's being a good sport.

Hello everyone,

Well my liquid diet is no longer an issue for me. My cold has taken away all desire for food or beverage. Which is good in a way I guess. Just got to stay hydrated and hope it goes away before next Tuesday. Set up a schedule on my phone to remind me to drink drink drink. Popping some Vitamin C and Tylenol Cold and Sinus. Needing lots of prayers right now. Going to go wash my brains out with some salt Water. FEEL like going back to bed. NEED to get on the treadmill.

      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.
