  1. They still have to cut you even tho it is laprascopic. 5-6 half to one inch incisions. That is what is glued or stapled after.
  2. Is it a trend? I bought a lobster tail and am grilling it. I am grilling zucchini too. Lobster tail is small and I plan to eat 3 ounces.
  3. Not every surgeon uses staples. Mine doesn't. He used glue which is nice because when the incisions heal the glue comes right off.
  4. 3 ounces grilled chicken. 1 tablespoon mashed potato.
  5. Try some skim milk. You need Protein. I drank three cups a day when I was on liquids.
  6. I eat two greek yogurts every day and a probiotic. I can't stand the taste of milk of magnesia so I'll just keep trying miralax. Maybe I need the water.
  7. I have terrible constipation too. I've taken miralax for the last three days and still nothing. Can we try anything else?
  8. 2.5 ounces roasted chicken. 0.5 ounce of roasted potato.
  9. Preach it! Im in the same boat. It all feels like a chore.
  10. It happened to me too. Luckily it started after but it was still a pain to deal with.
  11. I bought a lobster today too!! Very funny.
  12. I use the grape celebrate. They are pretty good. Calcium is the one I need to do a better job with. I need to find a higher dose calcium because I never seem to get all five chewables in per day.
  13. It is totally normal. I am almost three weeks out now and just starting to be able to eat more that. 2 ounces. I measure everything and eat 3 ounces 6 times a day. Unless it is a Protein shake. Your body is still healing so relax and know it will happen.
  14. I will bw at three weeks this wendesday and tried grits this week. I had about 2 tablespoons with an egg ( I ate the egg first). I did fine. My profession is different than yours as I started mechanical soft yesterday and will be on this for two months. Good luck!
