I am new to the site. My surgery is scheduled for March 20th. Since my first visit was the end of February I really am on the fast track due to a large umbilical hernia that can not be fixed until I lose 100lbs. I need to lose 130-133.

Well, 5 or 6 hours post op and feeling much better. The first 30 minutes were not much fun, but have continuously felt better and after a couple decent naps the discomfort is not too bad at all.

Good luck to the rest of you going today, and the rest of the month.

I'm home now, no nausea, very little discomfort. Hardest part is getting all the liquids down.

So you decided to go through with it! That's great. Glad you're well. I'm still having trouble with liquids too, seems we all do :/. I love Water, but the Protein Shakes SUCK.

I am a week out post op and hit a few bumps in the road. Bad reaction to CO2 gas then had reaction the adhesive in the bandages that covered my incisions., horrible itchy rash all over my torso. Other than that minimal pain, everyday easier to get more fluids down. Wasn't allowed anything but Clear Liquids first 7 days, Actually entered phase 2 of liquid diet today and had home made cream of potato Soup. Delicious!!

<p>I am trying different shakes, have liked Isopure and Unjury so far, some are simply too chalky for me. I wish that there was an unflavored Protein available...</p>

there is unflavored protein available but the pro nutrition store I went to said it is typically not carried on sale floors, you have to order it. The Vitamin Shoppe is where I last got it and also thru Amazon. I do that in Water with the MIO type flavor drops. It is not as icky sweet as many of the shakes and you can control the taste by the amount you put in. Best wishes for your journey!

      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.
