My surgeon's guidelines before and after surgery are 96 oz of Water a day. I'm three days out and surprisingly that's almost been done.

Anyway, the question: I have a slight and very minute amount of pinkish tinge in my urine. I know it's not from dehydration.

Should I be worried? It's not very much and though I do have some pain everything seems to be going well.

You need to call the doctor.

It's likely that Daniotra is correct.

Whether you're just not saying it or don't know, pink suggests blood. Don't get excited. If it was a one-time occurrence, you may have scratched yourself. Otherwise it can be a little infection that can be knocked out easily. If I noticed blood in my urine more than once or perhaps twice, I'd make a gyn appointment.

I think I've found the culprit. I'm on a liquid narcotic and in between liquid Tylenol. It's shortly after I take it that this has occurred. Of course I'll continue to stay on top of it through the weekend, but I'm thinking that's what it's from.

Hubby looked and said he doesn't think it looks pink...hmmm

      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.
