Hello everyone... I'm new on here. Literally an hour new.

I was sleeved April 1st. I'm 8 days out. I can answer questions from everything from Pre Op Diet to Surgery, Recovery and the Post Op liquid diet. I am just starting Full liquids today ( OK last night before bed ) .... I am certainly not an expert or a Doctor, but I have done it and would love to hear from people that are just now a week post op like me.

My surgery date was April 6th. When I got home I experienced horrible nausea but today I feel SO MUCH BETTER!!! I think it could've been my pain medicine on an empty stomach. So I started using one Tylenol.

I would love to join this group. I was sleeved on 4/4 and have told very few people and love that the group is secret. I sent you a friend request and email.

Thanks!

I'm doing good. Haven't yet been able to get 64oz of Water in yet. My tailbone is getting a little sore but other than that I'm good. How are you doing?

      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.
