I was sleeved March 18 2019 and so far so good. I'm 8 days post op today.. The only complaint I have thus far was the unbearable pain I was experiencing due to lack of BM. I took a laxative so I feel better but I'm just curious if this has happened to anyone else.

I’m just got out of surgery, 8 hours ago. The pain was unbearable, but pain medication help. I’m just been drinking Water. I’m I supposed to drink Protein because I have this 100% whey protein that I can add to my chicken broth.

Yes! I have issues in that department anyway but this was a little worse. I tried taking OTC stuff and nothing worked. I had to take prescription Linzess to get relief.

How do you know when your full. How much Protein are you supposed to consume. Also I’m supposed to drink 2 oz of Water every 15 min? What about lunch, which is chicken broth and Jello that’s provided by the Dr

Has anyone noticed any taste bud changes? I had surgery on 3/13 and started soft foods this week. I had mashed potatoes and found that I no longer care for them. Same thing with refried Beans. I had some today and it was nasty. It was such a let down because I’ve been craving both for a month now. I am currently sick with both pink eye and the crud but I don’t think that’s why I didn’t enjoy the food. I’m really bummed.

      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.
