My surgery is 12/31... New Year's Eve!

I'm freaking out about the 7-day liquid diet for pre-op. Not because of the diet, but it will be during Christmas and much of my family will be around and they don't know (only hubby knows). So, somehow, someway, I hope to stay under the radar!!!!!

I had the RNY surgery yesterday. Yesterday was s vey rough day the pain was awful they ended up giving me dilauded to get my pain under control . I was able to walk ten laps yesterday by the evening time I pretty much had pain medication every 4 hours though out the night. I walked 3 laps this morning around 3 am. I got more pain medication this morning around 8 pm after waiting 2 hours for it this time I had liquid po and IV pain medication. I walked another 5 laps (I'm suppose to walk 20 laps today to help the gas to move) I am finally starting to feel a little better. I'm on my last bag of IV antibiotics Sill on IV fluids at 125 ml/ hour. I can have 60 ml of Clear Liquids per hour. I've had no nausea or vomiting so far. I'm grateful for that. I pray this day will be much better than yesterday sine I am suppose to go home tomorrow.

      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.
