Doing well here. My main incision is sore, and still have some gas pains but other than that I felt good.

Occasionally have some pain when drinking water/jello, but nothing unmanageable.

You should have thrown your phone at your snoring husband and reminded him that he was there to support you, not drive you to distraction!

Surgery ended up being at 12 today. I had and still have lots a trapped gas. Been walking and it's helping a bit, but that is the majority of my pain. The pain med I have is making me super nauseous and the zofran that is suppose to dissolve under my tongue isn't dissolving very well and is making my nauseous. Husband is snoring like a crazy person
All in all, I feel ok

ckcford, any news? Hopefully your are feeling at least a smidge better.

Feeling better today. Have gotten NO Protein down, but am sipping Water and sugar free apple juice which tastes amazing. Haven't needed much pain medication today, but the incisions burn a bit. Feeling ok.

Hey Everyone! Happy New Year! I just toasted in the new year with some Powerade Zero, haha. I've been sipping and sipping and walking and walking. Gas pains are all gone, but the fact that every single time I take a sip and it sits right above my stomach before it 'flushes' into it is bothering me like crazy. No sharp pains, just dull soreness. I'm dying to take a solid sip of Water without having to sip.

I have lidocaine gel that I put around the incisions. Helps with the burning.

They kept me in the hospital 2-nights & I asked to come home today... So I'm finally home! But I still have lots of pain & what seems like painful spasms on & off?!?? I don't know if that's gas or something else! I still haven't been able to get much down because as soon as it hits my stomach it's painful! The smell of broth Makes me nauseated!!!! I'm hoping I can get down some Protein Shake tomorrow so I can start getting Protein in! ????????????????????????

I hope you all are doing great! Blessings!!!

      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.
