I'm 10 days post op and I'm still using the breathing exercise, so I think you should and it will help with your congestion. Also I used a heating pad and it really helped with my back pain. I also have to use a pillow under my stomach when I sleep on my side. I hope everything gets better for you, I think when your cold goes away it will help everything. Good Luck!

Ok, so I'm eight days post-op and I'm soooooooooooo hungry, the protein is only working for a couple of hous and I'm tired of freakin jello and broth. I'm able to eat soups and cream of wheat but I WANT to chew some real food. I called my Dr and they told me I can't even have sugar-free applesauce or eggs. Feel like I'm dying over here.

Congrats and glad everything went well! -
I'm 5 days post-op today and I had to head back to work. I'm really tired and feeling the soreness. I will have to go home after lunch, but I have to come back tomorrow. Really wish that I had more time to be off.

Check the health food section of your grocer as well. I found some soups in low soduim in Frys (Kroger) and they had all kinds. Pureed like squash, sweet potatoe, and baked potatoe all kinds. I'm going to try the sweet potatoe one this evening.

Surgery 2 days ago and I'm hungry
dawnk replied to Marcib's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hey guys, I'm two days post-op and I'm a little hungry. I find that I'm really to sore and tender and full of gas to really care about eating that much. I can go to full liquids on Monday and my Dr is allowing me to get cream of wheat or malt to meal so I'm excited about that. I also have isopure in juice that's helping. -
Hi Everyone, I have my surgery yesterday and I'm doing pretty good. I go home shortly, just looking forward to laying in my own bed.

Getting ready to head to hospital, I'm up first!!! Everyone please keep me in your prayers and have a great day!!!!

Congrats, my surgery is tomorrow as well. I'm really nervous, the nurse told me to just bring some comfy clothes and some books. I plan on bring some baby wipes as well. I'm only staying for a day so she said I didn't need much. Good Luck and see you in bandster land!! -

I think this pre-op diet is the hardest thing I have ever done. As the days go by it's not getting easier, the first couple of days I was good to go. Now I have a killer headache and would really like to get or suck or something solid besides veggie!!!

How long will it take to get unjury?
dawnk replied to mandy J.'s topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It took me a week to get mine and I live in AZ. I tried the vanilla today with coconut milk and it was pretty good. I usually drink light vanilla silk so I will try it with that next. -
