Recommended Posts

I remember how excited I was the few days leading up to surgery, but especially the early morning of surgery.... I could hardly wait to start my new life!

I remember not being scared at all and only a little bit nervous, but overwhelmed with excitement!

My surgery was 11/14/16.

Congratulations on your surgery and I wish you the best and a speedy recovery! :)

I can have anything by mouth until tomorrow but the cool b part is I'm NOT even hungry. I am however in a little bit of pain but not tooooo bad. They fount a henital hernia while I was in sugary and they they repaired that as well... I'm ready to get some liquids tomorrow, my mouth is SUPER DRY. I've been up walking and I'm about to go again. Thank you for all your kind words and I'll keep you posted.

How are you feeling are you home yet?




I got home yesterday and I'm feeling better than I expected. I've been doing a lot of walking which has helped. I've been sipping Water and eating Jello here and there..... I had a little phlegm in my chest and it was so painful to cough up but I finally got it up. The only problem I'm having is the DISGUSTING store bought broth. I have to find something else ASAP... Thanks for checking on me

      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.
