Sorry to hear about your loss as well. If you need extra support, we are here.

Laying on my left side with heating pad help me move to a bm. I also feel my insides moving when I go from laying down to standing.

Anyone from 3/28 have a BM yet? I've been on stool softeners, walking, drinking, passing gas but nothing yet.

My first BM was Thursday. I've had one every day since then. Very small.

I had a great recovery so far. Healing nicely. Getting my Vitamins and minerals in, fluids, and Protein in every day. Walking a few miles every day. No pain at all. Here comes the bad news. Two days after surgery, my mother passed away. So I have to travel now for the funeral and stay on top of everything while traveling. Wish me luck.

I've read lots of posts on here about sleeve stretching liquids pass straight through your stomach from what I understand so NO I know it's a paranoia us sleevers can have but I feel much much more at ease about this issue since researching it you can not do any harm by drinking more clear liquids

Today is my first day back at work. Almost has anxiety attack this morning thinking about it. Once I was here, everything g has been great! A nice distraction and life feels normal again. Doing great on Protein and liquid today. Doc said two weeks. One for healing and one for learning how to get Fluid in. Glad I decided to come back early.

Glad to hear all of the successes. I'm going in today to remove my stitches. ..can't wait. I've been semi back to full activity and the protein/vitamin intake has been really good. Down a total of 16 or 17 lbs depending which one I want to believe mine or the doc's lol. Down 3 diabetic and 1 hbp meds is the ultimate high!

      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.
