Isopure zero carb drinks helped me. At 40 grams of Protein and 20 ounces of Fluid you kill two birds with one stone but you will have to be committed...they are not tasty. You can get them at GNC.
I am ten days out today and I can say day three and four were the most uncomfortable. The incision that hurt the most almost scared me day four because it seemed to increase in soreness and pain overnight that day. It gets better I promise. I had back pain too because I am normally a tummy sleeper so my body didn't like the pillow prop positions. My pain is so much better I am sleeping on my stomach again. I found that walking was the best medicine. sleep as much as you need even if it is during the day. Your body needs rest to heal.
