6 days out doing good! But...



Recommended Posts

I have lost 3 or 4 pds :) cant really tell on my stupid scale lol.. its not digital. I am on full liquids. Healing well, not so crazy for all the gas that I have. I am hungry every 3 hours, but I guess thats to be expected since I am only on liquids, really, how long can that stuff last in your belly! I get full after 10mins, which was the same before surgury. But it is weird, when I get full, on my the left side of my neck I get a dull to sometimes sharp pain in my neck, weird huh? Not shoulder, my neck?!:) Also, I am healing fine.. but I expected to lose more then this, (i know :)), but I am still bloated and pmsing!! GRRR I bet I will drop a lot of weird after I get that stupid Ms. Flow! Anyway I feel I am doing well, moving around more healing fast, I would be happy to lose 3-4 pds a week verses what they said 1-2pds a week, blah on that! lol... Anyway anyone experienced this weird neck pain?

If you're passing the gas than they're working...if you were unable to pass the gas that would be super painful! I know I get the same way...my poor husband..lol

      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.
