Sorry for the delay in updating. My surgery started 6 hours late. I was in a lot of afterwards. The dilaudid worked miracles in the hospital. On Sunday I was given the option to stay one more day or leave the hospital. I chose to go home. The loriatab elixir wasn't as good as the dilauded, so the pain was bad Sunday night, a combination of gas and one of the 4 incisions is pretty swollen. Extra strength liquid Tylenol seems to be working the best for the pain. My mom brought me some ginger root to suck on and it worked instantly for the gas. I haven't felt hungry, just craved food. I can't tell if I'm full because of all the gas and pain. I'm doing Clear Liquids until Saturday, when I will go to full liquids. Trying to move around regularly, but not too much. Thanks for asking for the update.

      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.
