I was sleeved on the 12th. First night was a little rough. I kept thinking I was going to throw up but it was all burps. Let me just say that it hurt! Right now I am working on a sugar free popsicle, I got it off the stick so it's in chunks. I excited for this journey.

My stomach is still sore a little bit. I'm trying to get my fluids down. Everyday is a little bit better. I had my gall bladder out in 2006, so this is familiar with my stomach. That took me about 7 days to feel normal again.

I was sleeved 4/11! First two days were really bad with nausea but by day three I was able to get some fluids down. Just remember the trick to getting fluids to stay down is sip wait 30 s to 1 min and sip again. Trust me if you sip too fast or too much it will either hurt your pouch or come back up and you don't want that pain

Good luck with your surgery and journey!!!!

      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.
