Hey there everyone...I'm alive and kicking...surgery went well. I was in there for 6 hours...didn't get released until Wednesday at 6:00 pm and that night I stayed at my parents house. I am getting around really well but in the mornings I'm pretty sore because I sleep sitting in a chair because it's too hard for me to get up from a bed. I also wake up with sinus drainage which makes me cough which makes me feel like I'm gonna die...:lol:

I have five drain tubes and I go back to the doctor this morning for a follow-up...looks like they are only gonna take out one but it's better than none. I got to take a quick peek in the hospital and my tummy was flat...woo hoo...I'm so excited. Well...hate to cut it short but the pain killers are calling me by name.

Thanks for all the well wishes and prayers. I will post some pics soon but right now I'm sore and tired. Thanks again everyone and I'll keep you posted.:blink:

      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.
