Has anyone else had kidney issues since there surgery, I'm 7 mouths out down 52lb have 48 to go, but these last two weeks have had pain in my mid back around the kidney area. So much so that it stops me doing what I am doing. Just wondering if anyone else has had this issue.

Are you sure it's kidney and not muscle?

Pretty sure, this is more to the right hand side just below the rib cage, its been going on for about a week now, back itself feels fine, and I've lived with years of back issue to know this is different, going to try and hold out till my doctors appointment on the 28th, if I can but if not I'll properly go to a walk in clinic.

Kidney stones can be common after surgery. Go get it checked out. I just had surgery to break up an imbedded stone in the kidney.

I would check with your doctor sooner rather than later! Kidneys are nothing to mess with. You don't want to risk losing kidney function.

      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?

      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.
