I feel good as far as pain. I do however have no idea what these weird feelings mean in my stomach. I drink Water I get a strange feeling. Drink Soup weird feeling. I can't even explain it. I'm allowed yogurt and pudding. I get the same weird feelings. Am I still hungry? I don't know. I have yet to go to the bathroom since morning of my surgery and that has me worried. Perhaps the multi Vitamin is not correct any advice on the multi everyone else is taking. Do you eventually begin to understand the gurgling and rumbling feelings in your stomach? I have not thrown up. Perhaps not getting the correct amount of water? I can not wait for my doc appointment on wed but wanted to know your thoughts. You are all great.

Tiny tummies are noisy! Mine was down right embarrassing in the beginning but it settled down and now I'm "normal" again.

I concur...

My stomach was (and still can be) a noisy little bastard...

And as far as that 'feeling' goes, I also had a weird feeling for the first few weeks after surgery...

It wasn't pain...

It wasn't hunger...

It was like an empty feeling...

But not really...

It's VERY hard to explain...

But I had it...

So if that's anything like what you're feeling, just relax..

Thank you very reassuring. It's very hard to describe but it seems as though you guys have experienced it yourselves. Thanks for the insight.

      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.
