I feel like I'm regaining my appetite ... My surgery was Wednesday ... Barely ate/drank anything Thursday or Friday .. Now that I'm home I'm drinking clear liquids... I have trouble stretching out my liquids over an hour cuz I don't feel the small dipping fills me up

Once I got home there was no restrictions on clears at all. I sipped and sipped. But I was told to take my antacid/ppi daily Bc acid will feel like hunger. I take protonix. Some people take omeprezole etc. so be sure you're taking one

I think we can blame it on the fact we're all on some type of pain meds! Like right now i have to focus real good to not see 2 phones... haha

Heck no. I can't afford that. You're such a lucky ducky to have such an amazing dad. I'm glad you're doing well. I can't wait til we are a few months down the road just rockin n rollin along :)

Hey guys. Today seems better so far. Yesterday. I think I ate too much chicken broth for dinner and was soooo full. But weighed this morning and down 5.2 lbs. YAY!!! I have been off the pain meds since Thursday. But still take some Tylenol extra strength at night. The worst part now is my BMs are now in liquid form. (Sorry if TMI). I do still get some gas pains when I drink, but they have reduced as well.

Thank you all for being here to share this experience with. Hearing your experiences and being able to share mine has kept me from being scared throughout these first few days. This forum is AMAZING. but it is because of each of YOU!!!

Jencovi- I'm on the same plan as you. Finally on full liquids after a week. Like I posted before, really craving solid food, which I didn't expect to happen. Have had a few bites of Beans (chewed like 50 times) and no problem. But trying to wait out and follow Dr.s orders. Have lost 10 lbs. since surgery and eighteen since pre-op Dr. Appt. Weight loss stalled last few days; freaked me out a bit. I find I wish sleeve was more restrictive, because, although I drink slow, I can get 60+ ounces down a day.

Ok thanks. I do have that medication. A nurse is coming to my house in two hours to discuss medication. Also how was ur gas pain after surgery?? Mine was unbearable so I took gas x and now I'm doing a whole lot better. I still have gas pains but now it's moving along instead of just sitting there and now I'm able to pass gas which I was never able to before

My gas pains were excruciating. But now they are almost all gone. Hang in there. I bet when u get on a ppi you'll find that you have little hunger

      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.
