Oh my gosh, me too! I have been absolutely miserable these past few days. I was sleeved on the 8th. My mom, who had the lapband, said it's probably due to detoxing all the yuck foods out of our systems. I feel like I'm on a bit of an upswing today. It's been really hard for me to get all of my Protein in too. I fill up so quickly.

Only thing Is i haven't had a BM yet.

Don't get me wrong , I still feel a little discomfort but not as bad as day 1 an 2

So it's bearable for me , I'm still careful on my movements knowing when my body says slow down sit a few mins

But getting some fresh air and walking a little at a time has made these two days easier to manage.

Hope I don't speak too soon and be sore tmw. Lol

I'll let y'all know.

It's been just over 48 hours now. It's getting better. Went home after 24 hours. Pain was horrible had some nausea. Haven't thrown up. Seem to be eating everything I'm suppose to. It's was painful to drink still have some issues but it's much better. Tummy is making huge rumbling noises right now hopefully that means I'll get to release. ( sorry been 3 days). Lol

Every day gets better and better. I've decreased pain meds and feel pretty good. Lots if tummy noises that my kids get a kick out of. Now I'm researching ideas for the next phase. I found a great blog with great ideas and recipes called world according to eggface. Check it out. I think the next phase lasting four weeks for me may be a bit of a challenge but challenge accepted.

Hello all! I was sleeved 12/5! I am having trouble getting in all my required Protein Shake and battling some dizzy but the meds are helping that. Where's everyone at currently? Can you see your weightloss? I got a small bit of anxiety at one point when I looked down at my arm and it was thinner. I have had long sleeves the last couple weeks and didn't pay attention so it seemed foreign for a moment!

My BM took several days then came out very unappealing. But definitely feels good for things to start moving in there! The apple juice helped spark mine

@H.150ToGo I was 12/8 I don't think you see the weight come off that fast. I've lost 70 in total (most pre-op) and no one has noticed. Lol are you still swollen? I am, that may be not helping with weight loss yet. I don't think I'm getting enough Protein yet just doing my best to drink and take Vitamins. So far no issues although worried about the Iron I'm about to take. When I was prego it would make me throw up. Fingers crossed!! I'm realizing smarter to add Protein Powder in yogurt or Soup will give me more for my bang but need to get unflavoured for soup. I think I got 60 think it's suppose to be 80. I also use soy milk to mix which has more protein then milk. It is hard

      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.
