I woke up in a lot of pain. Now that they have it under control, I am feeling pretty good. Once they got me to my room, I walked several laps around the floor before getting into bed. I think most of my pain is just glass pain. I am so happy right now.

Awesome!
! I remember waking up from surgery so sick to my stomach it was unbearable. All I wanted to do was vomit. No pain though, just terrible nausea. I’ll never forget that.

You know@brown- eyed girl I am not that worried about post surgery pain, i already have a fair amount dragging around this tired old body, that pain will be for a reason and it won't last forever. And I'll be so much healthier and thinner afterwards. I get excited and hardly can wait for you it to happen.

Thank you for your updating posts. I go in day after tomorrow (by pass) not so worried about surgery as I am of what it will be like after. I have had plenty of surgeries before and know I tend to vomit from the anesthesia so asked the dr to make sure to put the anti nausea patch behind my ear, worked great for other surgeries.

i like that you came back as a post op report from your pre op.

I have also been having a lot of back pain from an injury last March and hope that doesn’t make things worse after surgery.. I have to go back to work the next week (no vacation time yet).

How much have lost so far and in how long?

Thanks!

We have a lot in common. I had back surgery in April 2017 and have had other surgeries. I think the patch helped a lot. So far I am down approximately 9lbs. Good luck with your surgery. It sounds like you are well prepared. That helps a lot.

      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.
