It went well. When I finally became conscious I kept saying that I had to pee. I tried but it didn't happen. The second time was a success. My nurse wanted me to walk but I protested and made a deal. The next time I walked. This was at 10pm. I've been walking every since. I did great. I was hitting milestones before time. They gave me an once of Water the next. Easy pease. I went home Saturday. Yesterday was the worse for. In the hospital I guess my body fought the gas. Laying on my side probably helped a lot. Being home I do feel the gas I lay on my side. I'm doing better than yesterday

I'm scheduled for next Friday, 12/23, but I didn't get cleared by my primary on Friday, as planned. During pre-op testing my A1C was over 10 (diabetes #) and my blood sugar was about 246, too high. I told them I had been having trouble getting my insurance to pay for my Metformin. When I got to my doctor, he called the surgeon, who was in surgery. My surgeon called back soon and said it was ok to clear me, then called back again to tell my primary to wait. Now, I have to get my blood sugar down by Wednesday, otherwise my surgery will be cancelled/ rescheduled. So, please, I could really use some positive vibes. At least I got my meds, which was a bit of an ordeal itself, and my blood sugar is now heading to lower #s.

      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.
