I feel the best when I just do stuff! I went to church and the grocery today, 4 days post op! Now...I was tired when I got home and took a 2 hour nap! I think it is just because I can't eat much. I might get 2oz at a time in! Plus...I used to like yogurt and pudding...yeah...not now!!

I'm on week 3, and I'm struggling to eat.

I feel a tightness in my stomach, it hurts when I eat and drink. I feel like there's an obstruction.

Has anyone felt that before?

PS : I did made the mistake of trying mash potatoes last week, after that, everything has gone down hill..

Any advise?

I drink and put Protein in everything I drink. I want to eat...just nothing I'm allowed to eat. Ha! I haven't cheated or anything...just struggling.

I am 17 days post op. It does get better. Hang in there. Let you body heal and do the very best you can. Make sure you are walking. I'm amazed but that seems to be the key to every thing!

I'm 21 days post op. Each day gets better. I even said I wanted to go to work. WTH!! Lol. Ok I was bored. Lol. I can get my liquids in. I can't stomach the Protein drinks. My doctor told me that if I can get it in thru food(thank goodness I'm on soft foods) that it's ok. Other than that everything thing is good

The challenge is real!!!! I am so full, I am forcing myself to eat, but I can hardly get anything in. I'm still using the 1 ounce cups to help me gauge my food/liquid consumption, and so far I'm not getting much in. :( HELP!!!! what can I do?

      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.
