No, thankfully, I did not.

mine was on may 1st and i am figuring it out as well. i'm not permitted to have shakes until one week after so i'm just on Clear Liquids. i sip Water constantly but do notice that the broth sits heavier. I can drink about one cup of broth and then feel satisfied (physically, not mentally). I'm sure everyone is different but i can't imaging being able to drink more than 8 oz of broth of Protein Shake before feeling full. But, I'm no expert!

Surgery went very well and the staff has made recovery as well as possible. I've been sleeping a lot but they were always good to remind me to get up and walk. Several times I didnt want to but I did it and then went right back to sleep. They also give us a spirometer to use to stimulate your lungs since they were also relaxed with the anesthesia. The hotel real is really nice-kinda felt like a bum coming in in my sweat pants and t-shirt but the staff has been very helpful. We are staying an extra two days since I didnt want to fly 7 hours home 3 days after surgery. Let me know if you have any questions!

I'm not nervous for the surgery at all, but I think I'm starting to mourn the things that I won't be having again: my morning Mcdonalds diet coke, my hot cafe pretzel on Target runs, my cinnamon bears at CVS, the cinnamon twists at Dominos...okay, i need to stop!

On another note, we moved from Helena, AL to Hawaii 6 years ago. Love me some Zoe's Kitchen. Roll Tide!
