I'm still in the hospital feeling good. These gas pains are ridiculous and the meds they gave me mad me want to puke. The nauseous alone without the meds made me beg for meds. Overall it's slowly improving though. Any other October sleevers out there? Need someone to talk to

I was just sleeved on the 8th. Had to go in twice had some bleeding inside based on blood pressure dropping. After, blood pressure was fine. However I was so groggy in the hospital. Feels so much better to be home. Gas pains were horrible first 2 nights in hospital. Ugh! Walking does help.

I got sleeved on the 8th too lol. The gas pains are the worse I can't seem to get ruin of it. I can feel the gas rumbling in my stomach. I'm having trouble getting my fluids too the smell of any broth is among me nauseous. I promised myself I'll get as much of the Protein Shakes and Water down as humanly possible today. I spiked a fever last night but I seems to be gone now. It's all so hard to get use to

unjury makes a protein chicken broth which would be a clear and Isopure has clear Protein drinks. I think you have to order the Unjury online and the Isopure can be ordered online or bought at GNC. You can also buy unflavored Protein powder to add to any of your current "clears".

I can have Water, broth sf Popsicles, sf Jello also but the protein n vitamins I got from my dr office I take a multi Vitamin w/iron b-12 and Calcium been on it since being discharged from the hospital. The vitamin and protein (70g) a day is what's need to avoid Hair loss and sf jello helps with keratin in the hair... So yes please call your dr to see when they will be adding this to your diet you don't want or need your hair falling on the floor

      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.
