Recommended Posts

I was just thinking about what I posted and I feel it needs to be said that yesterday was terrible. It was painful and I was nauseous and so sleepy my eyes would roll into the back of my head. Thought this needed to be said because this surgery is no joke and u will be in pain and should take this decision seriously.

I woke up after surgery and was on some pretty good pain meds and could not even feel much pain but god I was sleepy like I said.
The next day I woke up in some pain not too bad mostly shoulder pain which walking and a heat pack helped to ease. The day after I was discharged from hospital. I was in a little pain mostly just uncomfortable sleeping was hard because I couldn't find the right angle and the pain meds were making me feel hot like red face,chest and scalp. It was so weird so I just took the slow release one and not the endone and I feel so much better. Today I feel great, I'm up drinking Soup, and this amazing smoothie and doing laps of my apartment. Although unfortunately struggling with the Water. But yeah long story short I'm doing great

      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.
