Yes I did too. I had sleeve done 3/15. I was sick of broth and jello too. Try and walk more. I thought I was hungry but it was everything waking up inside from the surgery. It does get better. It took me 10 days to start feeling normal and getting more energy. Take it day by day. Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App

I had surgery 3/15. I too needed a nap ever day for at least a little over a week. Once I was able to get more Protein in I felt so much better. Water is still hard to drink all the ounces but I'm doing my best. I am on pureed food now which helps a lot with energy. I am down 19 lbs since surgery and total of 30 lbs since December. Walking alot helps. I wish you the best in your new journey. One day at a time. Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App

I haven't used pain meds in 5 days. I will talk to my Dr at post op appt Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App

@@sammielouwho @@jlw18 Are you mentally or physically hungry? Are you on a PPI? Are you taking an acid reducer? Is your physical hunger below your breast or below your rib cage? It's probably both mentally and physically I believe. Yes I am on prilosec since surgery.

I am 7 days post op and going through hunger pains also. I feel I can eat a lot but in reality I can't. I am on stage 2 and hopefully at my post op Dr visit I will move to pureed foods because this liquid diet is driving me nuts since I've been on it since beginning of march. I am also having regrets of doing the surgery. They say it's normal. Just have to deal with my mixed emotions in my head. I don't feel I've lost anything since surgery. Not sure if it's from everything being swollen and bloated.

I am 7 days post op and I am still feeling weak. I'm trying to get all the Water and Protein in but it is hard especially the water. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Good luck to your mom on her surgery Sent from my SM-G920V using BariatricPal mobile app

Good luck. I'm had my sleeve done 3/15.

I have Cigna and it took a little over a week to get approved. I have done my pre-op dr apt and now I am prepping for surgery with a 10 day liquid diet and then clear diet 2 days before surgery. I'm scheduled for March 15th. Good luck with everything. Your approval will come quicker than you think.

I'm reading that book now. Great information. I just finished my pre-op testing waiting for everything to get approved. The book is helping me know that I am making a great decision for me.
