Feeling like I can drink alot



Recommended Posts

I feel like I can drink alot and even have entire Italian ice without any issues. I feel like it is too soon to be able to consume that much. It was only a week tomorrow that I was sleeved. It seems like it's over night. One day I could get enough and now I feel it's too much. Has anyone had the same feeling?

@Tweety40. I've been on full liquids since leaving the hospital. I can drink a lot but to eat broth, pudding, jell0 exc. is a whole different story. I can't get the whole pudding cup down, not even half of the Jello cup, maybe a 1/4 cup of the broth, but boy can i suck down something to drink lol

Good luck with your next phase :)

A 11oz premiere Protein shake takes me about 2 hrs, it must be the thickness

      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.
