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.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
