I've been feeling hungry as well. I also seem to have no problems drinking Water or Protein shakes. I'm a little worried about this. I hope this works for me! Good Luck!!

Yes I am not having problems drinking Water or my shakes but my dr said that it's due to the swelling already going down. I'm a fast healer (I've been told) so I kind of expected it. I still feel satisfied after 1/4 a cup of yogurt or cream of wheat just not over full and uncomfortably when I haven't even finished the 1/4 cup!

Ps does everyone else eat out measuring cups and use baby spoons? Lol. I do so many dishes because me and my daughter compete for the baby silverware. I thankful I have a lot of measuring cups though!

I'm not using small cups or spoons just trying to stick with pre-measured foods. I've been really trying to get in 64 oz of Water. I'm feeling dehydrated though. Not sure if I need more Water or more calories. I have to stop trying to rush everything. I want it all now. Haha!! Tomorrow is my post op appt.

Ditto to being jealous! I have to wait until next Tuesday as well! It's getting easier, not easy by any means but I'm used to the same 5 things I always alternate between eating/ drinking. Lol.

Hello everyone,

I was sleeved a week ago (May 7th). I guess I'm one of the lucky ones (so far). I have no problems with getting my Water, or eating. I am on a full liquid diet for a full 2 weeks after the surgery. The gas wasn't pleasant at all; it took me 5 days before it was all gone, and its been great since then.

I've lost 12-lbs in the week since my surgery. I go back to work in another 8 days, after I see the surgeon and get my release back to work.

Its obvious from the posts our recoveries are all different; however, we each share the same goal, si I wish everyone the best on our journey to health and a better life.

It only gets better from here!

Take care,

Julie

      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.
