Hi! I'm a 38 year old woman that had gastric bypass on April 26---and I live outside of Columbus, Ohio. Seems like we have some things in common! How are you doing since surgery?

Now i am doing great. But one week out i decided i didn't need to follow the diet. Boy was I wrong! ended up in the hospital because of a piece of bread. I am faithful with the diet now but it is hard sometimes. I go back to work tomorrow. That will be hard for me too. How about you. How have you been doing?

Glad you are doing better! The diet does get easier to follow as you get further from surgery. You get more options. I'm doing really well. I've been back to work for about a month. Plan on taking naps when you get home that first week, if you can! I was exhausted. Getting better now. Saw my nutritionist today, and I am cleared for all food, as tolerated. Can't wait to have strawberries!

      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.
