Not much. Barely using the pain pump at this point. Mainly just to help me sleep. Of course all my machines keep beeping and waking me up [emoji31]. I have a very low resting pulse that drops even lower when I'm sleeping. My nurse has had to lower the pulse rate monitor 3 times because I kept triggering it. Then my iv ran out. Then it was time for vitals. So yeah, I just wanna sleep. My throat hurts and my tummy is a little sore.

I am feeling better. They sent me home with pain meds every four hours. My chest isn' hurting like it was, just a pain in my left side. I have been up walking and drinking. I got in my liquid and Protein yesterday so going for it again today. I also get to finally shower! Yay!

On my way to recovery! Hope everyone has a great day!!

      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.
