I'm seriously tired. Absolutely no energy. I can get maybe 2 ounces of shake or yogurt in. Or 3 ounces cream Soup. I'm pushing n pushing my Water but it's never enough. I'm not trying to be a whiner but I'm pretty miserable.

I am out of surgery and finally awake enough (kinda) to post an update! Surgery took a couple hours. My surgeon said that my liver shrank very well and that surgery went great! And no hiatal hernia!!! I have 5 lap sites. I have some aching pain in my belly, but the IV pain meds are working pretty well. The worst part is my mouth and throat are EXTREMELY dry and a little sore. I am allowed ice chips, but I have found that I can get too much for my tummy to take! I'm nodding in and out from exhaustion. I didn't sleep well the past 2 nights. Thank all of you that sent prayers and good vibes!

Welcome to the losers bench Lindsey!! Get some rest!! Congratulations! After surgery my mouth was so dry and I couldn't have anything but they did let me use mouth swabs. Didn't take the dryness completely away but it helped!

I feel you! I been working on this shake since 1pm after about 3 sips I feel like it's bubbling back up and I can't drink anymore !! Water is doing same thing . I was able to eat my Calcium chew though. My doc gave me all pill form meds which sucks I feel like they get stuck. I'm pretty miserable 5 days out too. Doc said I'm just going the slower route.. Yay me :(

Hi everyone, I am Angie and I had my surgery 2/11. I was pretty miserable until like 6 days after it, getting rid of the gas was so hard. I have a question, everything I have makes me burp right away. I sip Water, Protein Shake, Soup and all is the same. Is this normal?? Also I lost 17lbs but nothing in the last 3 days and that freaks me out. I am so glad I found this app, thanks

I felt fine. I have a desk job but after lunch got tired and bloated I ended going home about an hour and a half early. Being in dress pants was the most uncomfortable. Thank goodness for a longer shirt and a private office. I ended up unbuckling my pants after lunch:)

I get weird like, spasm type feeling sometimes after I drink or have a bite of yogurt/pudding. I don't know of its cause in full (cause I get them sometimes when I know I'm not hungry cause I haven't had anything in a long time) or because I'm hungry, or its just what happens. The feeling is like my stomach is spasming up towards my esophagus. But I also get it when it'll happen and half way through it it turns into a burp. So weird.

I called my doc about my weird pains last night. Said it's probably normal, from my incisions healing and stuff. Told me to take pain meds if it hurts. I assumed it was normal, glad it is.

      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.
