Hi! I took in to much Water yesterday and it came right back up no problems after that. It didn't even hurt like I thought it would coming up. I can do sugar free Popsicles as well per my doctor along with the rest if clear liquid and he said skim milk as well until I see him next Wednesday then I can do purée!

The gas pain is the worst. I have been walking and walking. I am finally having small burps. Hopefully that relieves it. Dr said it will subside. Focusing on getting liquids down and Proteins. Not very easy. I'm not hungry at all. Now the healing begins and my new journey

I was sleeved on the 8th as well. Everything has been ok except the gas pain which gets worse when I drink liquids and the incision near my stomach. I've got two toddlers to add to the challenge. Looking forward to feeling better.

Try to get some walking in. Space your liquids out. I am doing a 1 ounce cup about every 15 minutes. Takes a few hours to finish my Protein Drink but it helps. Have only been able to get 30 grams of Protein the last 2 days. Just got home from hospital 2 hours ago. My husband and oldest daughter are catering to me. I'll take it. Don't get discouraged. We are doing this for our health.

How are you recovering. My weight is finally changing. After losing 12 pounds before surgery after surgery I gained 8. They told me iv and fluids. I am still swollen on my stomach. But the 8 lbs are gone plus 3 more. Just seeing what you guys are experiencing. I hope to lose more before I see dr next week. I also went back to work yesterday for 5 hours. Taking it easy I need to recover and e back to normal.

I'm feeling much better. Almost 100% I have a lot of bloating and pain every time I drink or eat anything. But it quickly subsides. I wasn't prepared for the difficulty of getting in Protein and Water etc... I also have noticed I'm much more emotional, maybe that's is my head lol. I hope you you're doing well.

Not nasause at all. But it takes me all day to drink may protein. I feel about 75 percent. Glad your doing well.

Hang in there girls! After the first 3 or4 weeks you will feel like a new you. Especially when another 20 or 30 lbs comes off. You now have a new relationship with food and the fat wall is coming down! New world to see and live in.

      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.
