Hello everyone!

I’m 12 days post op , down 14 days & I must say recovery has gone great! I’ve migrated to Purée foods on Day 10 & have been able to tolerate all that I’ve tried thus far. No issues, no complaints or any complications. Blessed! My hardest feat has been getting my 60 oz; in and I do that by starting early in the am and sip alllllllllll day! I get Protein Shakes in between that as well. Good luck to all those waiting for surgery! Best decision ever.

I am very happy to hear of your success. I am having surgery next week and am kind of nervous about the recovery. Thank you for sharing your success.

Will pray for your recovery as well! I was VERY nervous and scared and expecting some type of adverse reaction. Even at this early level; anytime I try a new food, I’m anticipating or a little nervous that I won’t tolerate it, but so far so good. Good luck on your surgery! I’m sure you’re equally excited!

Thank you for your prayers. Im scheduled for August 2ND and as the date gets closer I'm excited and nervous just the same. I know food is a while off for me so I'll ask you for some suggestions when I get closer to being able to eat.

So tell me (I’m 4days post op) when I start to add back in Protein on Monday’s and then progress from there.....does your stomach still make all these gurgling noises while you attempt to drink?! Those noises is what make me almost not make my Fluid intake...

Yes! My stomach DEFINITELY makes gurgling noises when I drink. It’s not painful though. Lol! My daughter prescribed me antacids and that’s helped.

      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.
