Banded 9/4...

Day two post-op. Just woke up a little bit ago. Slept much better last night than I had expected to. Had to have the loritab last night, its sooo NASTY but it helped me get a lot of rest. Feeling pretty good other than the gas pains that have settled in my left shoulder. If it weren't for that I would feel perfect. Will keep everyone posted. Time to get up and walk around a bit.

So how are you feeling now, are you still really bloated, I am. It seems the gas just does not want to move out. Other than that I feel good, not real hungry, still on broth & liquid, having some creamy potatoe or tomatoe today. I hate to say it but let me know about you gas? HaHaHa.

12 days post-op. Doing just fine. No problems with anything. On smooth diet but am eating some soft - well blended foods like hummus and chicken salad (more like pate consistency). But no problems. Go in for my first fill on October 10. I can't wait to begin a full fitness program, just walking right now. How are ou doing?

:hungry:Hi I am doing well, I am still doing liquid & moving to mushy foods this week. I made this great pot of vege stew with hamburger last night. It will be my first attempt at anything solid, but yet in a Soup. When can we start that exercise routine? I am down 35 pounds since I started this process & need to start moving. I tried riding my exercise bike but sill hurt, I will try again today.

They told me I could begin walking as soon as I felt able and to just listen to my body and do what I could. I can begin weights and Water aerobics 6wks post-op. I have been walking 2 - 3 miles everyday for the last week or so. SInce I have started my weight loss and stopped but my intake had not increased much. First fill is 10/9/07. When is yours?

      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.
