6 days post op and not wanting to eat or drink.



Recommended Posts

Hello and Good afternoon everyone!

I went to my 1st post op appt yesterday and my doctor told me that I am doing very well! He is allowing me to drive again and go back to both jobs come Monday.

I am feeling so much better. And I explained to the doctor and nurse what I was going thru and they told me (like all of you) that I just take it one day at a time. Thanks everyone!

I have been moved to the mushy stage.I was told to try and eat mushies and if I can hold them down and they don't bother me I can eat what I want on the mushie stage.

I had some refried Beans w/cheese and ground beef w/taco seasoning.....soooo goood and I only ate 1/2 cup. and I feel good. Not stuffed but comfortable.

I just have to remember not to drink while eating. :smile:

Thanks for all of your support!

Let me know how you all are feeling as well.

I am just checking in with everyone. I am feeling soooo much better. I am on the mushie stage for another 3 days. YES! I would like to know how everyone is doing. I went back to both jobs yesterday after working one job for a week. And I am feeling better as each day passes. I did however pull a muscle on my left side of my stomach that is the only thing that is giving me an issue.

Does anyone have any suggestions for some mushies?

      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.
