Don't know how you did it for 30 days! Hands down you win. My work Christmas party was my last night on real food, so that was pretty easy.

Good luck with surgery.

Doing well, can finally take in a little over 2 oz at a time sipping of course, before I stop. Then wait a bit before getting more. I am only up to 30oz but tomorrow is a new day!

I still have pain in my upper chest especially when I use spirometer and sometimes just sitting.

Wishing my ft worth buddies good luck!!!

If you don't want to walk or do your incentive spirometery then you are not taking enough pain meds. Don't be shy on taking them the first few days. Glad you are doing well!

Day 4 post op

Today is better than yesterday! Was able to sleep on my side and slept well. Woke up and was able to get in 4 oz in 30 minutes, took my Vitamins, walked on treadmill for 35 minutes and about to have my injury chicken broth Protein.

Ready to get out of the house today.

Wishing everyone well!

      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.
