I'm feeling better every day. . . I'm still taking pain meds about every 4 hours. . . maybe I'm just totally a sissy. but where the port is its really sore.

I honestly have no hunger. . . but i keep drinking my liquids. I would like to have a little texture though!

Sorry I haven't posted sooner. My surgery was on Tuesday. Today is Saturday. I am feeling much better today although I am trying to push the fluids even though I am not normally a drinker. Starting last night I am hungry alot! Yesterday I stopped taking the prescription pain meds and started with liquid Tylenol. I have not had ANY pain meds at all today. My back is getting sore from laying around so much but I am tired and don't feel like doing much.

      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.
