I have struggled with acid reflux and IBS for the last thirty some years or more in fact I cannot remember the last time my stomach felt so relaxed. No bloating. No pain. No hunger. And it's Thursday , had mini bypass surgery on Monday here in Tijuana . Some huge differences here in the hospital care. When you ring for a nurse they actually show up. My room was cleaned twice a day. Michael stayed with me in the room. Medications came on the dot. IV changed as soon as it beeped! Doctors are so kind and amazing. It's wonderful here and the men and women here are so gracious. Mexican health care is great with Bariatric Pal. The service was great, the hospital clinic clean. I'm very happy with the results!!! And Roberto Carlos is a real sweetheart as are all the BP Mexico valets!

I'm so excited about my new life and the gift of my new life from Dr Illian!

Feel good. My bypass and I are figuring out what foods are ok, what it will tolerate, and how much . Sipping is my new life instead of gorging!!

      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.
