When I got out of surgery and they had me in the recovery room I felt like a bus hit me....the gas was making my back hurt real bad. You're lucky...not only did you have less gas pain but they didn't keep you in as long. I was submitted into riverside parkview hospital and stayed overnight and released at 11 pm the next night. Im dying right now because this liquid diet is killing me. I'm hungry and I can't sleep for some reason. Im use to sleeping on my stomach so i think that might be it but goodness...im hoping it passes.

I'm in my precert phase with Dr. Coon. I see these post are about a month old now. Any more Doc Coon feedback? So far (1 visit) I like him.

I'm not worried about Lq diets post op because I go on them for fun as part of my regular failed diet attemps.

      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.
