Best of luck! My dogs sleep with me every night (it is a horrible habit I cannot seem to break but they keep me so warm) and they don't like my gurgling belly very much. :) They may not like it but they don't mind the extra long walks every day that they have been getting.

Puppy therapy helps the healing. My brother brought my fur neices over today and that made me so happy!!! The left side pain is so intense sometimes...like "things" are moving around inside!!!!!

Congrats on joining the loser's bench. I can still remember all the growling and churning Frankensleeve did that 1st week post-op. It does go away... slowly. B)

I'm 7days post-op and I'm feeling okay, able to get fluids down fairly well. Though, if I stand or walk for more than 10 min, I get a pain in my belly on the side of the largest incision area, and I have to sit down. It's not a topical pain near the incision site, it feels like something is pulling inside. Has anyone else experienced this? If so, will this go away soon?

Yes! Exactly! I hope this goes away soon so I can begin exercising. Also, getting in and out of bed has been quite a challenge. The couch is where I've been spending most of my nights :(

Clautxs, thank you for asking. I feel slightly better, but, when I don't take any pain meds, I still hurt a lot. I'm definitely sleeping better. I hope this gets better soon. I'd love to get out and walk more.

      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.
