Get ready to rumble!
Im 4 days post op and having the same gurgling in my tummy but I think mine is due to the sugar free Jello. I think the aspatamine in it is messing me up so I am going to cut back on that. Gatorade goes down much easier for me than Water. Ive been eating off the same can of chicken noodle Soup broth for 3 day. I figure if I can get a little in its better than none. I no longer need my pain medicine. My energy level is picking up. Today I am going to the mall to walk around. We got this!!!

First BIG emotional trigger since surgery!
Focus on the fact the you made the best decision by making him your EX husband!! You cant control him but you can put a positive spin on it for your children. Realize that your kids are not dumb they will eventually figure out that he is a jerk! Remember that you are the only mother they will ever have and they will love you best forever!

What if you are just not hungry?
Try the Protein shots! I know they are not good for you long term but they will help you thru this week and they come in 3oz clear Fluid. Just a suggestion. Protein and Water are important right now so that you can heal and not get dehydrated.
