My surgeon says for me not to worry about Protein just yet. First we get in sugar free liquids and that's all I need on my mind. Then comes Proteins a week or so later. <br><br> As for popping a out a poop, my bro in law sharted and only realized it once he got up to walk. So yeah, do not trust a fart this early on. My sister was like "well, I just had to wash Doug's ass, this is my punishment in life" lol

Oh my gosh that's funny! I'm def gonna have to be careful, no sharting for me. I would be mortified and anybody who knew would never let me forget it lol!

I just had my sleeve 2/17. It's been more difficult than I thought , but everyday gets a little better.

The first three days were the hardest for me. Hopefully you begin to feel much better from here on out.

Finally home. Still haven't passes gas or pooped. I'm so damn bloated, it sucks. Lol but hopefully being at home and taking a shower will help. Besides that, I'm doing pretty good.

I just really want the gas or whatever to go away. Like I wish I could bend over or something. I've even had 2 fingers up my butt, and some milk of magnesia. Nothing.

But. I know it'll get better, so I just keep telling myself that over and over. :)

I don't think you need to call your dietician yet. My hospital makes us see our dietician one week out (group class) and everyone was struggling to meet their protein needs. I was only getting one shake a day and they were okay as long as I drank all my Water.

Ok thanks Jen! I am working on a Protein Shake right now! Looks like I didn't really make a dent in it yet!!

The first day I finished a whole shake was Wednesday which was day six for me. I took it to my group class with a lot of ice. It was a 2 hour class from 10-12 so I made it at 8 like normal and took it with. I finished the shake and a 16oz bottle of Water. I was so proud. But I don't usually sit around and have time for that. I have my daughter to watch/run around with at home so I set it in the fridge and end up focusing in water and forgetting the shake in the fridge. Lol. I have gotten better though.

      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.
