46 hours after surgery, 18 hours since arriving home...

lol auto correct... i meant to say the staff were very sympathetic . from the moment i arrived till my discharge... i was even visited by the hospital manager and even though; im guessing its standard procedure , it was very calming for my nerves. Dr. Ali came to see me before hand and that was reassuring as well... so other then the hopefully temporary pangs of the left over co2 gas in my abdomen and chest (which are painful id rate a 6/10), it wasnt such a tremendous deal as i had made it out to be ,, it was the fear that created conflict in my psyche about undergoing this rather overwhelming change on my lifestyle.. i really dont regret nothing ...

i couldn't do eggs but ive been putting Sriracha or tapatio on all my Soups and i haven't had a problem at all, and ive been drinking aloe vera juice about half a water bottle full a day.. its good for the healing.

I put ketchup on my eggs and I put stuff in my Soup too just to give it more flavor and I've been doing the Protein Drinks and the Protein Water I had coffee today but that s*** had me wired. I probably need to make some pudding cuz I have been having cravings for sweets

Sent from my SM-G920T1 using BariatricPal mobile app

with the sweets be careful... i thought id be a smartass and take a bite from a sees candy some little chocolate then spit it out, which i did ... and i still got sick.. it turned me inside so never again... try the light sherbert or get the gerber banana oatmeal and make a light avena with almond milk and a splenda and that kills the cravings.. its bomb.

i was told only drink Decaf so im on that with the fat free lite Creamer the french vanilla or hazelnut,, thats been hitting my sweets craving at night especially.

I think I'm going to go get some baby food cuz yeah earlier I took a bite of a Hershey bar and i threw it up

Sent from my SM-G920T1 using BariatricPal mobile app

the baby food like the custard or the premade stuff hits the spot just its minimal with the Protein so its like a treat. the gerber oatmeal has good Iron and a bit of protein though

Do u ever feel full..i haven't but i just stopped

Sent from my SM-G920T1 using BariatricPal mobile app

my stomach is like numb but other then feeling full in the stomach i feel satisfied... ive been using sesame oil like a couple drops on Soups or adding chili powder or whatever just to give it something extra and with what i serve, i never finish because just two three bites and i tasted it , it was good and thats it.. i physically and mentally dont feel like i should keep eating it... as long as i taste it i guess ...in the first week only the Protein Shakes satiated me but now just tasting food bit here bit there and im fine.. so i dont feel full but i dont feel hungry either.

are you having trouble sleeping?

      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.
