I had a rough night woke up couldn't breathe, coughing and scared. I used the breathing thing and moved to the sofa I felt a little better but not sure what that was.

I woke up today and am happy to see some of the swelling in my abdomon has gone down! I know some of you had a drain but I did not.

All required liquid and Protein haven't been a problem so I am thrilled!!

The nurse said maybe acid reflux since I don't have a fever or pain.

So its been 6 days since surgery and last night while at dinner with friends i was sitting there sipping on my Water usually I'll drink 4-6oz and be full while I drank probably about 12 oz and felt like I could keep going then this morning I was sipping on warm milk and drank 10 oz I was full after but is this normal since I was only able to sip a little and be full should I be worried is this normal?

They say Water goes right thru the sleeve. I bet the past few days you were swollen and it had harder time going down. Now swelling is down. And I wouldn't worry when u introduce a little thicker stuff it doesn't slide down so fast. That is why they don't want any fluids 30 minutes after u eat. That's my thoughts anyway. Ha

      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.
