Hi everyone! I had mine on 10/1 and just wanted to check in! Pain is totally fine at this point except I’m still having gas pains.. so walk walk walk!! Other than that I had some broth tonight and that was nice but not getting much of anything in.. not hungry and it feels a little funny going down at first. Be careful if they give you morphine in the hospital.. made me a nauseous mess! Percocet was fine but haven’t had one since Tuesday morning. Had some Tylenol Tuesday night and that’s it! And I’m a big wuss!!! Good luck all!!

@clara1900 I’m so nervous. I had the band in 2012 and removed in 2015 so the pain isn’t making me nervous but I’m miserable in liquids. I’m so hungry! I’ve only gotten in one protein shake today and it’s 5pm.. I just can’t get them down.

Hey all! I went shopping yesterday and started liquids today. I’m starving!!! I’ve barely gotten one protein shake in today because work is so busy and I just feel awful. Everyone just says keep drinking but I’m not thirsty!! Help :(

I’m a wreck. I’m supposed to start liquids today and I’m totally unprepared. I had my brothers wedding this past weekend so was so busy with that that I had no time for anything else. I guess I can start tomorrow but am just dreading it. I am now rethinking the whole surgery because I’m so scared. Just having an overall bad time.

Just tried the Syntax Nectar protein powder for their caramel macchiato and it tasted amazing! Just like coffee!! Highly recommend for anyone trying to find protein shakes they like.
