I'm three days out and haven't had a bowel movement yet. Just a lot of gas from both ends and in between. I'm grumpy and sore and bloated. But I keep walking and drinking liquids. It's got to get better.

Every body is different, every body heals different, I was up shopping at costco and the streets of Tijuana two days after surgery, working my horses seven days afterand driving eight hours to work on day ten to a very remote location and eating what was made for everyone on the job site. I've heard some people take longer. Just like snow flakes no two people are alike. Find someone in the same situation as you and go threw the process together, lean on each other and find comfort with someone in the same boat as you. I found the entire experience very easy, others did not.

Good luck, when you feel better you'll be so excited.

Hi ! I had surgery 7/7/2015. Today I went back to the gym..its get better! as soon as you start eating real food (pureed now for me) your body has more energy.

I don't have any pain.Only the firs 2 days are horrible after that is ok.

I'm kind of out of ideas for menus but i will go back to the nutritionist tomorrow to get some help but not hungry yet

      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.
