That's awesome!! Good luck!! I had my surgery on 10/1 and everything went well. I'm healing fast and today I move on to the Puree Diet. I refuse to blend everything Lol, so my dietician and I came up with great alternatives for me. I am totally embracing my new journey. Good luck again to you and all Sleevers.

HI new here, just had surgery on 10/6

Hey how have you been holding up? We're sleeve twins lol (Oct. 6th).

The first 2 days were pretty rough for me due to gas pains and discomfort. 3rd day was a little better and today has been much better. Can't wait to enter the puree phase 😪lol.

I’ve just had to take time for myself. Sometimes I slink off to the bedroom, or I go for a car ride. I’ e expressed it to my family and surgeon that I’m getting nervous, and they have been supportive. It’s like sometimes I have no nervousness or anxiety about it, and then it just hits. Those are mostly the times that I like to be alone. Don’t know if that even helps, but it’s what I’ve had to do.

I won’t lie it’s been rough. This was or is my first surgery so I didn’t really know what to expect. The pain has often brought me to tears . I am able to get some liquids down so that’s good. Just praying all this will be worth it in the end.

It will be all worth it in the end. Are you walking to help with the pain, and taking whatever pain meds they gave you? Good job getting your fluids down too!! It will get easier they tell us!! Believe in that.

      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.
