3 days post op

[sjohn185 25]

I had my gastric bypass on 11/8. I had major issues with the pain meds. Once I stopped then I felt so much better. My question is how do you know how much broth to eat? I'm able to tolerate sugar free popsicles. I am really missing regular food. Especially my saltine crackers. I used to eat like a pack of crackers a week.

I had one ounce every 15 minutes. It's more about staying hydrated during week 1 than overeating or oversipping. Give yourself a few more hours and the feeling should pass. It gets easier, I swear!

@@sjohn185 I had my bypass the same day that you did. I haven't had any hunger issues yet. I hope that it doesn't happen too soon. I can't drink too much at one time so I am basically just sipping.

I had mine on the 4th and I agree about the pain meds. I stopped then last night. I feel so much better. It seems we all on here have a ways to go but good for us in the steps we have taken.
