Any April Surgery Dates?
bsumner replied to rokse23's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I definitely think moving around has helped. I have to drink slowly as well. Except now everything is going right through me (tmi I know). Hope you are doing well -

I am ok. A lot of pressure I guess from the gas. I feel like I’ve been beat up I’m so sore. Are you able to drink ok? I’m on clear liquids for a week. 1 ounce every 15 mins. -

absolutely! How are you doing in the middle of the pre op diet? My surgeon has me on full liquids. The hard part was the first 3 or 4 days I guess going through caffeine and carb withdrawls. -

I am on full liquids. I am doing like 3 shakes a day, yogurt, pudding, jello (all sugar free). Of course adding in the water, gatorade zero, and crystal light. No caffeine either-that has added to my fatigue too. I did try some broth yesterday to try and get used to it for post op and its not my favorite by far. I keep hearing that the second week is better. Hoping this is true. Are you having the sleeve? -
Hope you do great! Mine is the 25th

I'm April 25th. This pre-op diet is something else. -
Hi!! I am 7 days post op and only drinking protein shakes and water. After I drink my protein shakes I get the hiccups, they only last 15 secs or so, but it just seems weird. Anyone else having this?

thanks guys. Im learning, slowly! -
down 22 pounds and its been 3 weeks since I started the post op diet, 1 week post surgery......

cda97, hope its going better for you. Ive been dealing with hiccups and pressure in my abdomen. Called the doc and I found out that I have been drinking water before and after my protein shakes (meals) and that's a no-no. Now that I've stopped doing that I feel a little better. I think at this point I feel kinda stuck like Im not getting anywhere or what in the world have I done.....ugggghhh-this is a roller coaster for sure!!!

Im near Savannah. I was banded on the 3rd. When were you banded?
-
Im just glad that Im not the only one going through the same thing. Also glad to know that it will get better!!
-
I feel the same way. I was banded Friday also. Im having mixed emotions, just up and down kinda feeling. One minute Im hungry, the next I take a sip of water and I feel like Im gonna explode. Not sure how we will make it, but we WILL!!!

Im feeling the same way. I was banded on the 3rd. Is the Mylicon working for you?
-
Hey, I was banded 2 days ago and Im feeling the same thing. Its almost like I have to burp or it feels like bubbling. What are you doing to help it?
