Had my surgery yesterday! Woke up very dizzy. Now I'm very sore and tired

Take it easy, I hear walking is good. Hope you get that in today. Might help.

Surgery for me is tomorrow! Lots of stuff to keep me busy today. only liquids, nothing after midnight. Have to do the shower/sterile wipes tonight.

Hi all! I finally went into surgery around 3:30 yesterday afternoon. All things considered, I feel pretty great. Last night was rough, but that's what morphine and Zofran are for. I can't really focus on words -- my vision is so blurry from the scopolamine patch -- do this will have to be short, I hope all of my surgery buddies are doing ok!

First night was pretty rough mainly because I can't hack morphine. Feel slightly better this morning. I have 5 key wholes. I hope everyone else feeling better. I can't believe we did it!

      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.
