  1. How did this turn out? I am almost 8 weeks out. I went to dr for kidney infection and she said I was very dehydrated and maxed out on ketones. I don’t even know what this means. She worked me in right before lunch and rushed me out. The main thing she said is that if I don’t get 6 bottles of water in daily until Friday I would end up in hospital.

  3. I am looking forward to soft food week! Thanks for all the tips. I didn’t get enough fluid in before surgery and I thought I’d be fine but I didn’t take into account that everything else is depleted as well. Questions. Is this straw and bottle thing important? Being able to grab a water from gas station would be helpful.

  7. I had Sleeve. And ugh I haven’t even started vitamins yet! ??‍♀️ I’m still having issues with being weak from just lack of calories. When does that go away?
  8. Thank you. I will try that protein. I didn’t realize broth had protein but, duh! That makes sense! I’m a single very busy mom and on the go is the only way I know. So this is a MAJOR adjustment and it’s frustrating me.
  9. I had my surgery 2/7. I am in sales and constantly on the go. This week has been hell. I cannot get all my fluids down. Protein is a no go. I have limited time to eat and it takes so long. If I push myself I get really sick. Just off a protein shake. I’m terrified I’m going to stretch it so quickly simply because I’m always in a hurry!
