  1. I had my surgery last Wednesday and I'm down 16.5 lbs already. I called yesterday and asked if this was normal and they said it was fine. I'm wondering if I can be on mushy food earlier than next week? Has anyone started early on it?
  2. I am 5 days post op too and today was my first day back at work. It was MISERABLE- but I don't get paid time off so I had to go back. I'm still on liquids/smoothies. My blood sugar got low and I had nothing to drink so I got a small soy caramel frappaccino( I know,I know). When I got home I slept for two hours and my tummy feels awful. Anyone else get a sugary liquid to help blood sugar? what happened? You live and you learn I guess but I will not be doing that again.
  3. I am having this same issue at the moment. I am 5 days post OP.
