Oh poo. I guess I'll wait and see what they have for me at my first post op visit on Monday. I also have a seminar or something with their nutrition afterward. Then I'll have to start all these Vitamins. Or do they suggest waiting until phase two. I think the original nutritionist did. Can't recall. Doc said to wait until after this visit though. I take Biotin chewable a everyday anyway just bc I'm dreading the upcoming Hair loss.< /p>

I had it so bad I couldn't sleep at night. Dr said to try PPI's at night, and if that didn't work go to 2 a day for a couple days. then taper off. I finally slept last night... Thanks to Prilosec.

IF all else fails Gaviscon..

but beware of TUMS

Tell your doctor especially if you are not on heartburn meds. Because the acid can erode your stomach.

I had the sleeve on July 24th. Came home today on Clear Liquids for 3 more days then I add my Protein Drinks into diet till I see my doctor on aug 4 to discuss purée foods. Weighed myself prior to leaving hosp and was up 2 pounds from Thursday morning. Nurse agreed that intend all the fluids I received during my stay and gas. Lol. I also had hiatal hernia repair done and I gotta day I think that hurts more than the other right now. Feel every sip of everything going down. Including meds (liquids).

I was sleeved on July 7 2014. No complications but I was naive about the recovery time. I'm 61 and thought I would bunch back more quickly. I am up and doing housework and shopping etc. I am however, so thirsty. The sipping doesn't do it for me. I have eaten a bite or two over my full limit and suffer with that incredible chest pain. Anyone else with minor struggles?

I'm worried I can eat too much. For lunch today I had a boiled egg and a cheese stick. I did feel full afterward and my stomach did spasm some when I ate but it spasms with Water, too... How much can everyone eat at one meal?

I'm not eating solids yet but I'm 2 weeks out tomorrow and I can drink a fair amount of liquids at once which makes me worry too!!

      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.
