We can do this! Im 11 days post op and I'm hungry and struggling with just all liquids! I'm scared to give in ... God help us!

Has anyone filled out their FMLA documents for their employment? And what was the length of time it was approved for?

My surgery was on a Friday and I went back the following Wednesday, bad idea though! Since I work at a desk 10 hrs, my back was hurting so I took the rest of the week and I go back tomorrow!

Hi, I had my surgery on 6/28 and so far I'm doing much better....Dr was nice, met him the day before surgery and the day of surgery, the staff is also very nice and helpful. Don't have any complaints (so far) , good luck and I'm here for you if you have any questions.

I'm 7 days post op and I can't even eat any cream soups until 1 more week....

??????ªit wasn't as bad as I thought it would be! I can do this!! I took my protein shake and my Greek yogurt and I didn't even think twice about all the food they had!

Thank you all!! this group is definitely motivating and I'm sure I will go fine!! I can do this!!

Tomorrow we have a huge family bbq and I will be on my 6th day post op. I'm hoping it won't be so hard... I can do this! Just have to plan my liquid meals.

What are the best or more tasty protein shakes?

Yes Im still in the full líquids for the next 2 weeks, cream of wheat, Greek yogurt and cottage cheese with fruit puréed, I'll see how I do!

I was just reminded by my drs office that I don't start cream soups until week 3.

I haven't been able to keep up with the 90gms of protein a day. I'm just not hungry although i do keep sipping on water all day. As far a cream soups.. What kind should I buy? What's best and tasteful? How about the non fat yogurt?

I'm on day 4 and feeling somewhat better just glad I can start full liquids, the protein I need to more flavors, I'm tired of vanilla!

Day 4 post op, still a little sore but feeling better. Im able to start my full liquids, more variety.

I've been able to also drink water and protein liquid drinks but I don't start the full liquids til this morning... It's been hard trying to take in 90gms of protein a day I'm not hungry at all

I'm post op on my 2nd day, yesterday was horrible but today not as bad.. Not hungry at all and still sore and some pain getting up

Today is my 2nd day post op, feeling better still sore and hard to get up from sitting. I'm praying tomorrow is much better.
