hey guys im back and everything is good. My mom is a nurse and she is taking really good care of me and all my demanding lol. I have been resting a lot. My port area is a tad swollen and the pain was a 7/10, but when I took my liquid 2 teaspoons of pain killer it went down to about a 4. My mom said it's a narcotic so do not overdue it but c'mon lol. I am having a hard time falling asleep in bed so i've been in and out of sleep but I don't feel very tired. I fell asleep easier on the couch. I've been savoring Peach Ocean Spray juice mixes so refreshing you guys have no idea how thirsty I was post op. My father went to buy some chicken broth for me but is having a bit of a hard time because all the thanksgiving shoppers lol. He is running to another store now to look for it. My surgeon was great, he even let me mom see me as soon as I was out and man waking up from the anesthesia really had me tripping lol. It went well and I'm glad you guys were there for me thanks a lot! I haven't had a chance to weigh myself I look forward to updating my ticker since the 11th of November.

Love you all, later bandsters.

      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.
