I had my surgery 9 days ago and am post-menopausal for 3 years and after surgery I have had a very light period pretty much for the past 9 days. I am glad to follow this thread. I understand that it is normal now. Thanks

Thank you to everyone who offered me some suggestions and comfort that this is normal. It is getting slightly better but the Dr. Said that this pain could be from reflux. I don't think it feels like reflux. I have taken the Omiprozole for the past few days and it improved only slightly.

My surgery was yesterday morning. I did lose weight prior to going into surgery so that was a plus. Surgery went well according to the Dr. Got out of the hospital around 2 pm today. I feel like I hurt more now that I am home then when I was there. Gas is going down very very slowly. I have listened to all of the things they told me to do. One of which I am struggling with today. I have had less than 20 oz of Water, a small sugar free Jello, about 4 oz of the chicken broth they gave me in the hospital and about 8 oz so far of a Protein Drink. I am drinking little sips and have been awake most of today. I am trying really hard to get their total of 64 oz of Fluid in me and 70 oz of protien but day 1 is no where near what I am supposed to do. It is slow going because it hurts if I go fast. Do I worry? Will it get better? I even mentioned to the Dr. That I thought I was hungry but she said that it was "mental" hunger.

I am new to the group. My surgery is scheduled for January 24th. My pre-op diet is no more than 40 carbs per day which includes quite a few meats, cheeses and vegetables. I have tried to count the carbs throughout the day but have failed on occasion to account for some things. I have been doing low carb for longer than the two weeks but still... my failures and overages make me worry.
I’m 8 weeks out now. Can I have a coffee yet?

I am 7 weeks out and started drinking Hazelnut Decaf about two weeks before surgery and still LOVE it. I don't know that I really need to go back to regularly coffee. I was told it was OK to have caffeine in VERY small amounts.
