6 days ago I had my gastric sleeve done, I also had a hiatal hernia repair. I haven't been drinking a lot, not only because I'm not hungry but because thinking of certain things makes me feel sick. Can any one relate? Also, I am sooooo over this stomach gurgling!!!!

Yess! I'm definitely having food aversion for food I'm not even eating. The smell of certain things make me nauseas.. especially the smell of Protein drinks! [emoji13][emoji13] I'm three weeks out and my appetite is pretty much non existent now. I try to drink my two Protein Drinks a day and keep up my Water intake.. plus at least one meal of creamed soup... but I feel like it's way too much. It's literally a chore to eat now, I have to remind myself to drink something. It's really hard for me to keep up during the day with my liquids. I'm starting purees this week so maybe I will have more motivation to eat but I know it will probably still be difficult to get all my liquids in. The struggle is real lol.

      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.
