Congrats ! I was sleeved on Thursday the 21st. Like you I haven't had that many problems just a little pain here and there when I "forget" I had surgery and move to fast. I couldn't be happier that I had this done. One of the best decisions I have made in a very long time.

Happy losing ????

I had surgery the same day and feel fantastic! I too occasionally move just right and say "oh yeah I had surgery I shouldn't do that!" Lol my only hiccup on all this is my one incision in my belly button won't stop bleeding, doctor checked and said it's fine I just had a hematoma below the skin and eventually it will empty and all will be good! Otherwise getting in my liquids & protein! How about you?

It was a little hard at first to get in all my liquids but this past week I've been doing much better. My incisions are still just a little painful also but I've been feeling great:)

      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.
