Thanks!

I am pretty happy so far, not a lot of pain, just tightness.

There was one weird thing though. On the plane home, the gentleman next to me ordered a drink. The smell of the alcohol made me so sick. I drink and have never felt like that before.

Anyone else have something like that?

I don't drink either before or now, but my sweet tooth has lessened a bit, plus I don't go for carbs much either. I guess it's your body's way of telling you that you need different things now.

Thanks!

Wow, you sound like you're doing really well. I wasn't really up to much 'til about 3 days after my op as I was still on the drip and feeling a woozy from the anesthetic LOL! tongue.gif

      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.
