March 25th surgeries we are on deck! I AM SO HYPED FOR THIS TO JUST HAPPEN ALREADY. But still just bit anxious I pray for an easy recovery for all🙏. Lets keep positive and get ready for the next phase in this journey 💞

You’ll do great! I had surgery Monday and doing better than expected. Just a little sore, but like JustJazzy, I also had a hernia repair.

I just had my surgery yesterday. The pain is more soreness than anything. But the trapped gas in my stomach is the most annoying, uncomfortable feeling in the world. I've walked; attempted to lay on my side and nothing. I burped a little but nothing significant from either end. Someone, PLEASE help!

Glad to hear pain is not as great. Hope the gas resolved quickly and you are starting to feel better!

Looking for my twin March 26th

Here I am. I am very hungry. Had to throw out my daughters cupcakes to avoid any risk of slipping on this 2 week pre-op diet. (Just so you don’t think I’m cruel, unlike me, she barely looks at sweets- she made them just so she could practice cake decorating).

This time tomorrow it’ll all be over!😬

Good luck to you!

I had my surgery (Gastric Bypass) yesterday so far recovery is ok, i have been moved up to pureed diet, still in hospital but hoping to get out this afternoon. Biggest problem has been managing pain closely. But i think we got it taken care of now. I have been walking and it is so true it does help the gas pain. Fingers crossed I get to go home tonight🤞🤞🤞

      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.
