Day 5 dramas and what not



Recommended Posts

Yesterday (day 4) I had an awful day I felt uncomfortable and gassy all day and to make things worse I got my period less than 10 days after my last one !!

I threw up last night after dinner I had a soft boiled egg which I puréed but I think I ate too much or to fast , anyway I threw up :( I had to get some de gas tablets because I was so uncomfortable.

I have had an upset stomach for the last 5 days so I am taking fibre again hopefully that helps

This morning I felt dizzy and not so great I need to drink more Fluid , also I am slowly having a Protein shake for Breakfast and I must say that has made me a whole lot better so that's a good start.

I did some dishes and a little bit of tidying up and it's okay so I do feel there is a light at the end of the tunnel so to speak :)

Also I have lost 8.8lbs in 5 days :)

yes, gasiness can be resolved with walking for most of us

if you are feeling nauseous however, you need to contact your doctor...you shouldn't feel that way all the time.

liquids will help, make sure you are getting enough....

Good luck to you both

      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.
