It didn't end until I was out of the liquid stages. Liquid in, liquid out.

Once I start adding creamier liquids and such in the full liquids and mushies will it get some better? I start full liquids on Monday. Have been on clear all this week.

Posting to ask a not so nice question...

Did anyone here have problems post op with diarrhea during their liquid stages and if so when did it end. I'm being tortured. :blush:

I didn't until day before yesterday, but I don't know if that's because I took some Milk of Magnesia the day before because I wasn't going. It was something my doctor's office listed as something to get, along with stool softeners (which I didn't do). But it ended that day and I haven't had it since. You aren't the only one I've heard have that problem, though.

So I'm guessing you can't have Protein Drinks yet? I was able to have those since my operation, so I'm sure that helps -- and I have been getting a good 80+ grams of Protein a day.

Monday will be here soon or I would have suggested the Unjury unflavored protein, since I think you could just put that in Water or other clear liquid.

I was like Beth, once I hit fuller liquids and mushies, I stopped up. Badly. Make sure you have something at home to help with that. It is so uncomfortable.

I've been on Protein Shakes in small amounts since day 2 of post op. It's so hard to get Protein in because I am just not hungry. I get full so easily. I can't wait until Monday when I can have blended Soups yummm lol and pudding :blush:

      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.
