I am doing great, walking is a challenge with the pain, but i refuse to be a bed person, it hurts the body. That hospital stay had me feeling like I slept to much, constant back pains, sleeping pattern is off, but doing well...so far so good.

Glad to know that you are doing good. I have walked around the house some, but I haven't gotten out. The meds had me so tired, but I wasn't able to really rest because I constantly had to use the bathroom and I couldn't go alone. But I got through that.

Oh wow! Doctors are all so different. Honestly, I didn't think I would be on Protein so early. But when it was delivered the next morning I figured it's on now. I'm still taking my time with everything. I will be researching the pureed foods thay can have. I want to take it easy.

I agree, I too am preparing for pureed foods, and looking for a good puree blender, my girlfriend did organic baby foods, may try it

      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.
