Me and my mom were sleeved on Monday here it is Wed we are doing great and begging to go home! We have to get X-ray for leak test then drains and staples out if all goes well with leak test and we can go. We have nights paid for at the Marriot but we are missing our puppies and ready to get back!

Pain is minimal at this point just and a little difficult to move around!

I had the worst reflux of my life last night but mylanta saved me!

My mom has had no nausea no reflux very little gas pain she is doing great!

We are super anxious about having these drain taken out!! I know it's going to hurt!

The drain does not feel so bad while it's getting removed. You'll feel a million times better afterward!

      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.
