Hello Jennypoo,

Well, we are finally back home. We were on the red eye from San Diego to Florida. Oy.

Got home about noon. Showered, cleaned my stitches, got into bed and.... passed out!

Just had some chicken broth. Yum. (I still think its the weirdest thing - enjoying broth... Just my first few days maybe??)

You know, I bought 2 packs of Gas X, knowing that a lot of people here used it to help with the annoying gas afterwards, but... it didnt work for me. Finished a whole pack within a couple of days and even more gassy. Oh well. Just weird like that I guess. :D

Good luck to you! 11 days! woohoo! ;) :Banane11:

      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.
