7 days post op and I just want to eat[emoji30]



Recommended Posts

Just hang in there - do you have a ppi (acid reducer) you take? It can mimic the feeling of hunger if not. One day at a time - definitely don't let your head win. Leaks are horrible.

I had sleeve done on the 10th and I feel the same way. I want to cry and it does not help that my husband is cooking the kids all my favorite foods.

Ladies, do you not understand that what you are doing is dangerous? You can land yourself in the hospital with major complications.

This isn't just a physical journey. The mental part is the real struggle. If you can't get control of relationship with food when it is dangerous to eat what are you going to do when you are able to eat regular food?

Why did you get the surgery? Do you want to succeed? Do you want to be slim and healthy?

Don't make excuses. Do something else. Call a friend. Go for a walk. Hit a punching bag. But

DO.NOT.EAT unless you have been cleared to do so by you doctor.

@itzbrittanyx3, I am by far the wrong one to give advice but I will tell you what I am feeling. I am 5 days out. Drink ALL my Water eat 2-3 popscicles a day a tiny bit of yogurt to take my meds. I AM HUNGRY your not the only one. I have been shamed on here from @@Babbs for asking what ppl are slowly introducing as the days go on. I sent him a copy of my discharge instructions because I know he didn't believe me. All it did was break down the different stages but gave NO TIMEFRAMES. So I feel at this point it's worth getting other sleevers inputs//--- besides @@Babbs. Read through and you can get some good ideas

I have been reading other comments you have made on other people's post. I just wanted you to know that when you get yours and you need someone to just agree and understand where your coming from. I hope that you dont get someone like your self that will kick you when your already down.

All my years of fighting for this and preparing my self for this and it still is messing with me.

Good luck on your journey.

You see what you want to see honey. I don't kick people when they are down, but I also will not lie to you and say what you want to hear when you are doing things that are harmful.

When I am fortunate enough to to be post-op I will follow all the rules because I've been reading and researching this process for months and I know the rules are there to keep me safe.

I do no lie to myself and I don't make excuses. I do occasionally make mistakes. I do not say "I can't" I say I will try.

I'm sorry you think I'm mean. You aren't the first and you won't be the last.

If you are really interested in what I post then stick around because you might find out I'm a huge cheerleader and believer in the power of positive thinking.

Your success is up to you. No surgery or other person can define your success. It is all on you. You are in control.

May you have a wonderful journey of self discovery and weight loss.

I'm basically in tears because I want to eat.. this is so pathetic... I still have a whole week left of my liquid diet [emoji19]Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Get busy cleaning a closet, rearrange drawers, and paint a room if you can. It kept me sane and occupied!

It wasn't allot and it was basically puréed... I did consult my physician... and everyone's body is different .... this is a rough journey and if you have someone you know that has had this done ask for there advice.... everyone's situation is different some are allowed food 5 days after surgery... some not until 4 weeks after....

      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.
