My doc won't let me drive got the first week. That is partly why I think.



Is anyone in Stage 2 eating egg whites and avocado? I'm 8 days post-op and my appetite is slightly increasing. Any recommendation?

Had my post OP appt today. Got in trouble for not eating food. Only been sipping Soup every other day just drinking Protein Shakes been scared to eat. I was told that as the swelling goes down your stomach will hold slightly more food. I will be having my first meal today. Try drinking Water first they say thirst sometimes disguise as hunger

Can you give me an idea of what your days have looked like so far-- what you drink and when you drink it?

      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.
