Hope our 8/16 group is doing well!!

Luckily, because I'm young and healthy my cold wasn't a problem and surgery went as scheduled! Had a hiatal hernia repair along with the sleeve. I'm relaxing with some dilaudid right now and still battling the anesthesia nausea. Overall feel pretty good. They tell me I don't look like I just had surgery. Guess that's a good thing. Lol.

I am glad to hear you're doing well. I'm walking trying to get the gas out. I have only been burping so far. How about you ?

Burping/ some pooting. Lol.

Sipping on some liquids. It is hard to keep up. Especially when my stomach is not really into this drinking thing right now. I keep battling nausea.

      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.
