Hi sunsetsue, I hope you're feeling better. Last night I had grumpling discomfort. Panadol Syrup and oxycodone are such pain to swallow. But I managed to drink Water despite the pain.

yeah i struggle to keep it down. but i guess because he did hiatus hernia repair as well i feel it is trapped inside. it hurts a lot after though. until its effect. I think you need some IV meds until your swelling go down and be safe to swallow liquid. It is ok.. they need to be flexible based on every individual. you will get there on time.

my surgeon came by and said I can go home. waiting for them (2hrs) to take the drip away and i'm quite thirsty so want to trickle some liquid in.

I feel a little better but still in a lot of pain. I make sure to walk as much as I can. I threw up a few times from the nasty taste of repetitive pain killers. I'm home now.

I've just had a walk in the mall for shopping. Tired and resting every 10-15min but still managing to do it.

Just Bought some Protein powder to add on on my Protein drinks for top up. I'm cleared for shakes and low fat milk as well as diet cordial and tea or coffee. Don't know how can I get them in. One shake takes me 4-5hrs to drink and I feel so full. But I know the Protein for faster healing and energy regeneration. I don't have surgical pain now. Just exhaustion. I think I had a good surgeon. It is day 4 post op. I only had paracetamol once today. But need to keep up with fluids. It is a challenge.

      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.
