I’m doing the Premier shakes and I’m going to add unflavored GNC Protein Powder to my food tomorrow. And maybe do one shake if needed. I am tired of the shakes! I was instructed to start vitamins with purée stage. I will be taking Flintstone vitamins, B12 and the calcium citrate chews, starting tomorrow. I didn’t throw up yet..hoping I don’t! I am starting to wake up during the night feeling hungry. The last couple of days I have only been drinking two shakes and eating a total of 1 cup of Soup because getting 60-64 oz of Water is hard and filling! After I would eat something my stomach felt so bloated, it’s a very uncomfortable feeling. I think I have to start using a baby spoon, that may help.

april 16th!

currently on day one of my 2 week pre op diet

Thank you everyone! I’m waiting to see my dietician so I can be discharged today. I may be one of the lucky ones because I still have no nausea or pain besides the gas pains. I was finally able to pass gas which actually been helping. I’ve been walking a lot while here in the hospital & moving around. I’m able to keep fluids down although I’m not hungry at all. Scared for the Protein part! I’m still trying to figure out how ima get all my Water in plus protein [emoji30] I’m so happy with my decision in getting surgery! Love this app, love all the support here!

Thanks everyone for the well wishes. Yesterday I was very sick from the anesthesia and the gas pain was excruciating. I couldn’t keep anything down but forced myself to walk which started helping with the gas pains. I was pacing the hallways at 1am and was finally able to get some sleep around 2. This morning I had an upper GI test done to make sure I didnt have any leaks and happy to report all is well. It’s still a struggle to drink as my throat is very sore from the breathing tube but I feel 200x better. I took a shower which also helped breathe some life back into me. The worst seems to have passed but still have some gas which now is just slightly uncomfortable. I am lucky that that is the only
pain I have as everything else seems to be healing nicely.

April 10th.....liquid diet starts tomorrow!

Well, I knew about most of the things you mentioned with exception of being scrubbed down to my knees. I wasn't aware of that tidbit of info. Don't let any of that bother you, girl. I say let em look, we're all getting upgrades soon🤗. I always ask for my catheter after I'm knocked out...super uncomfortable. My surgery is April 3rd....and I say lump it and let's focus on recovery instead.
