Got home yesterday, doing good. Water is going down fine. Go 20g of Protein in for yesterday so that's good. Just adding little by little to make sure I don't hurt.

Glad you are home. Keep pushing your protein and fluids. 20 grams may seem like a lot but it isn't. You need a lot more. What are you allowed on this phase? Premier Protein has 30 grams of protein per 11 oz.

What is your protein target?

Keep sipping!

I didn't get home til 3:00 PM, I have 20g in already today on clear protein.

I'm sure I will hit 40 today, and my Water will be 48 to 60. My staff says that's good for 2nd day. Don't get dehydrated. Keep plugging away. They gave me pills for nausea, that really helps.

OK. So had the sleeve on Monday. Got 60g of Protein in today and working on 48 oz of Water. This is my last day of Clear Liquids, yea! You guys are my support because I didn't tell anyone but of course my husband. He is great, but not going through if he doesn't know what to say or how to react about the small things. Like GOT MY PROTEIN DOWN! YEA! Lol

I love the help and support available on this site. I personally know of no where else people truly understand the process.

We all tackle the road differently, yet there is unity in WLS .

I am thankful !

Feeling better today and think I may hit my Protein goals today. I have just keep sipping the various sweet things I have. I added Protein powder to a Protein Drink this morning and got a decent start. How do other people feel pain wise? I feel like I did a lot of sit-ups and now my abs are sore. Every so often I do something that pulls my stitches and that doesn't feel great either. I stayed with my bestie and her family after they let me out but I am home today.

Glad you are getting your protein in. I haven't had any pain meds since yesterday. I have pain spasms in my stomach, but I'm trying to stay away from meds because they make me feel weird. We will see. Getting all my protein in and 40 oz of Water a day. I have to stay up til 11:00pm to get all the water in right now. Can't wait for this phase to be over.

      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.
