Yes, I got home around 2pm today. Happy to he home but unhappy that I don't have a lounge chair to sleep in. Getting in and out of my bed is not fun.

Hi! I had my surgery on the same day you did at the same time. I arrived home yesterday around 8 PM. Feels great to be home. Experiencing gnawing hunger pains. Trying to sip Protein as Water seems to make it worse. Are you experiencing the same?

Having weird gurgling and pain in my stomach but they don't seem like hunger pains to me. I havent had any interest in food since the surgery. I've been tolerating Water and Protein Shakes though. Hope you also have a speedy recovery!

Oh I haven’t tried Protein Shakes yet. I’m doing Isopure Protein Drink. Doctor said I can only have Clear Liquids. Will try Protein shakes next week. Trying to find high protein shakes. I woke up several times with that weird feeling in my stomach/chest last night and had to take a few sips of the protein drink. Seemed to help. I hope you have a speedy recovery as well.

Yeah, I left the hospital on a "full liquid diet". I tried some broth and yogurt today and wasn't feeling either of them.

How are the Isopure drinks going down. That is what I will be drinking some to my surgery date Nov 27th

Have not tried any of the Isopure drinks. I've been doing the Premier Protein flavored water and this "peanut butter cookie" Protein mix that I've been mixing with almond milk

      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.
