4 days post op and confused



Recommended Posts

Thank you so much everyone! Glad to have somewhere to talk about it all because I've kept this a secret from everyone except a select few.

@@kim0518 oh nono don't worry I haven't had anything other then Water, Isopure and broth. The lean mean I was talking about was from pre op diet. Don't worry, I'm not straying from the plan:)

I have to @jackieemac.... that is kept this as my business only so coming to this forum and receiving all this support is so awesome. I have people on here that have been so warm and kind since day 1. It has made this journey a lot easier for me. I truly feel I have established some friendships on here as well.

I'm on the same boat. I was finally discharged last evening. My belly feels worst at home. I even weighed myself and looks I gain 2 pounds. My daughter said it's the Water from the IV. Very painful drinking broth. How's everyone with the weight and the drinking?

It hurts so much but I'm drinking slow.

It gets better as you heal.

I went through the same feelings. Mourning the loss of some fav foods. I really wish they discussed these feeling more before surgery.

I agree with un.be.sleevable. The tv commercials will get you! Since I had my wls, it seems as if every other commercial is an ad for fast/junk food. Netflix has helped me with my unhealthy cravings. No more regular tv for me unless it's the local news. And it helps it give the tv the finger when one of those commercials come on. ;-)

      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.
