I am back online after my Oct 7 sleeve. I had a late surgery. Got to my room about 9:00PM and discharged the next day at 4:00PM.

No real issues. I have not gotten my Vitamins yet. Hopefully today.

I am on Clear Liquids til tomorrow. Not hitting my Protein the past couple of days. I am drinking Isopure Protein Drinks and Water so far. I have tried some broth and sugar free ice pops and Jello, but protein is my priority.

Then I can get strained Soups and protein drinks.< /p>

My 5 incisions are healing nicely.

Been walking indoors since it has been 100 degrees for a couple of days.

My most helpful items in the hospital were gas x strips, heating pad, eye shade/mask and a toothbrush (to help me gag to burp).

Monday is one week and meet with the surgeon. I can add in more meal items like creamed Soups and V8. Cleaned the garage today and over did it. Paying the price tonight. Tried to do to much. Laying low and watching the movie Wild.

I don't think its strange that you are posting here, I think its great to have you here. Its rare to find someone banded 4+ years, and I think your experience is a valuable addition. We can always use more banded (and bandwannabe's) men in our discussions. (Ladies please don't be offended by me saying that;) ) Welcome Malcolm, good luck on your port replacement.

      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.
