Today, for the first time since surgery, I woke up wanting something. For the last few days I’ve had to force down the Water, Protein and broth but today I look forward to it. I took a few sips and no pain from my new stomach. I want to gulp it all down but will not, I will just keep sipping for Now.

Thank God I finally can drink fluids again without pain

Have a great day!

Glad you are able to get your liquids in. I guess I am the complete oppisite. I am concerned that liquids are going down too easily. I can drink 11 oz of a Premier Protein shake within 30 minutes and do not have any issues. I will just need to make sure I don't over do it. My stomach makes a little noise but I don't have any pain or vomiting and I don't feel full.

I can drink fluids or Protein just fine, even a decent amount at a time. But I just fine myself not wanting anything at all. Like I'd be happier completely not eating or drinking period.

Though I do constantly find myself craving eggs and pistachios oddly...

@GRITS77 Mine feels like it is shocked when fluids hit it, it seizes up for a second then it goes in. I get the same feeling when (I think) I’m hungry, so it is confusing. That is great that you are able to get all of your fluids in, I look forward to that.

[mention=321206]Mhy12784[/mention] I didn’t want anything either until today. This is the first day that I actually wanted my Water, broth & Protein. I don’t know why mine will still only allow tiny sips at a time [emoji848]

Have a great day!

I honestly don't know yet. I have my surgery a little over 3 wks ago and I'm still hungry but I'm being told that it will get better when I start eating real food again and not just liquids. I have noticed though if you drink lots of Water and make sure if you can to drink all the Protein Shakes your allowed.. it does help some with the hunger I've noticed.

      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.
