I’m surprised by the amount of pain. I just got home from the hospital and am really looking forward to the gas pain leaving.

Just got home as well. Yeah have gas pains and I can’t seem to really get stuff without having the burps. Other than that I am fine but this is really annoying

I am still burping too. I’ve heard from others that will go away around the 3rd month. I hope so cause you’re right it’s annoying. The 3rd day I thought I was having a heart attack because of the gas pain I was having. I just walked and walked as much as I could. By the 4th day it was gone.

I have to admit, I’m having a hard time getting my Protein in. Doing my walking and sip sip sip. I still have gas pains in my forearms, of all places. So weird. Hope everyone else is rocking and rolling.

I had trouble getting my Protein Shake in too the first week. Just listen to your body and strive to get as much in as you can. It will get easier.

      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.
