My surgery was yesterday morning at about 11. I have been walking quite a bit and the nurses say I am doing really well. I just got dressed and that made me feel like a real person again.

I have been sipping on Premier Protein and G2 nonstop. Pain is mostly the gas pain but stomach muscles are really sore when getting up and then sitting back down.

Surprised you can have Protein Shakes already. I'm Clear Liquids first 3 days. Glad it went well fir everyone. My first day was rough, vomit blood then they gave me stuff for nausea. 2nd day felt human got a shower and went home late in day. Doing well and sipping constantly. Walking every 30 min for 5 min. pills kinda hurt and have to sit straight up when drinking per Dr and it helps.

My surgery was Tuesday morning

I was sleeved yesterday afternoon. I am eating Jello right now and they are preparing my discharge. The night nurse said I was the best bariatric patient he has had. Not complaining about pain and walking constantly. Walking feels so good. I am glad to be off morphine, it was making me sick. I swallowed my first pain pill today and it was easy. I was really nervous about that. I can't drink cold Water it has to be room temp but I drink doom temp water normally anyway. I feel great. I'm so excited.

They say they would send me to a hematologist to see if it is ok to have the surgery or not. If I get the clearance, my surgeon says I will do it Monday Morning.

How is everyone doing today? I am at home now which feels so nice. Took a nap when I arrived and now watching trashy daytime TV and walking for 10 minutes of every hour.

Gas isn't dissipating very quickly and stomach is really swollen. But it isn't unbearable.

I forgot to mention that I am 6 pounds o from surgery weight due to the bags of IV formula that got pumped in.

      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.
