Hi everyone. Just wondered how you were all doing. I am almost two weeks out and I have lost about a pound a day. Love looking at the scale every morning. I feel almost back to normal, but am still low energy and I get a little light headed sometimes. The Water is the easiest thing for me to do. The Protein shakes not so much. I just don't like them. I am getting the 30 grams of Protein that my surgeon's information says that I need during this two week liquid phase. It will be tougher though as the requirement goes up. Just curious. What is the best tasting, high protein thing that you all have found?

Congratulations on everyone sleeve in September. I'm 15days post op. I'm getting in Protein and fluids. Started purée today and it was challenging. Question- does any still have pain to their abdomen? Exercise? I sometimes feel like I should be doing more. I went walking and the following two days I was in extreme pain. Just curious

I have been doing great also. Haven't used any pain medicine for since the very first days, but oh boy am I in pain now. I was walking at lunch time and got a very sharp pain under my left breast. It feels like muscle or like something tore/came loose, I don't know. If I sit very still I am fine. It is only if I move funny I get this very sharp pulling type pain. It is near the largest of the laprascopic incisions that my surgeon said would bother me for a while. Is that what you were experiencing BPowell? I am 2 days away from 3 weeks post surgical. This pain has just really caught me off guard.

      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.
