I had mine done on May 5th. I 'm doing much better then I thought would. Im staying focused on Fluid intake.

I need to learn to go slow. I'm very happy I had this done. I had so many doubts and have never experienced that kind of stress before. This is only my 5th day but its already easier then last week.

Surgery was successful. Only have some mild incisional pain. The drinking post op is hard. I fell like I could drink a gallon of iced Water because my mouth is so dry but they will only let me have 30 ml and hour. Overall successful so far!

Note: Post-op has been WAY BETTER than I expected. I'm amazed at myself each and every day. :)

Be proud...be strong...be ready to start life over again. :)

I was May 9th and I'm feeling great 6 days post op, there is tenderness in my side but no pain meds needed, I'm really starting to embrace this new lifestyle knowing that the ultimate reward will be beyond tremendous.

Home now from the hospital. Everything went fine. The doctor said my liver looked perfect. I walked the unit every couple hours and haven't had any gas pains. Starting these Vitamins are hard. There are so many and trying to sip sip sip is a struggle. I can honestly say I have absolutely no hunger as of now.

      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.
