Yeah I know I have not been getting nearly as much water as I should

Thank you for the reply ... I don't really have an appetite.. It feels like all I do all day is struggle to get my protein my water and then my food

I have a question my surgery was April 30th I'm on puréed foods now... Whenever I start to eat after a few bites I get this pain in the top of my stomach.. It feels like a gas pain but its a few seconds but then it keeps coming back?? And I'm not sure if that means I'm full or what... I only am getting 2 ounces each time

Thanks I've been eating Popsicles all day because I can't seem to get my fluids 48 oz is a lot !!

Thanks for the reply do u know how much Popsicles count as and no I never tried broth

Hey I have some questions about eating.. I was sleeved on the 30th... I am suppose to eat puréed food 4 to 6 times a day 2 protein shakes and 48 ounces of water... And I'm having a hard time eating and drinking all this...so far today I had 2 ounces of egg beaters 1 protein shake and about 10 ounces of water ... I really am afraid that I will dehydrate... I just don't feel like eating or drinking... My starting weight was 278 now I'm 254. I also don't want to hit a plateau either

Hey I got my sleeve on Tuesday the thirtieth...I was so nervous but after when I was in recovery they gave me nausea meds and pain meds so I was not in pain at all so for a few hours went so fast... When I got to my room I took the medicine they gave me couldn't drink anything which was not as bad as I thought because I didn't even want to drink... The next day Wednesday I left with some liquid Percocet and I take that and do a lot of walking... The pain is also not like I expected the gas pain does hurt but t is not a constant pain and my back and stomach is just really sore nothing major.

Mine went really well I got discharged today at around 4.... I'm in pain my chest and the right side hurts....now trying to sip some water..

Thanks for all the post guys!! Yes moth swabs are amazing right now.. I'm haven't been really hungry just a little thirsty.. But I wanna post my experience on here and answer questions for people who have questions about being at the hospital and the pre op diet... Every time I wanted to kno something I came on here People have really good information!!! So if you guys who have not had surgery in have any questions ask!!!

Hey my surgery is April 30th... I started my pre op diet on 4/17... And tomorrow I only can drink clear liquids...so that sucks but my diet consist of 3 protein shakes a day and 6 servings of like cream soup pudding salad that's pretty much it...the day of sucked because I went straight into to eating whatever to eating nothing....but the protein shakes fill you up... Sometimes I forget to eat or am not hungry which I never thought that would happen!!! Two weeks may seem like forever when you have to be on this kind of diet and my surgery is Tuesday it flew by now I'm nervous for the surgery!!!

For me it has not been that bad I can drink 3 protein shakes sugar free pudding cream of chicken soup salad.... At first it sucked but now I don't even get hungry... But every now and again I wanna bit of some good food

So you are saying the scoop in the container that it came with i fill it all the way I'm not sure what I did it just seemed like a lot.. I took a measuring cup and measured it in it was 3 ounces

Is your guys pre op diet for two weeks then night before clear liquids??
