Advanced Post-op Diet too quickly. scared
I had surgery same day as you and have had to be creative on meals; proteins drinks; egg drop soup (minus MOST of the egg drop) I just use a small spoon and chew it; 4 bites in and I'm good. I've also had a bit of homemade tomato soup and its been like heaven! We just flash peel the tomatoes first as to not have the skin.. Hang in there and don't be so hard on yourself! We got this!

5wks post op, eating too much?
Thankfully your stomach doesn't hurt but the fullness in your chest is probably bad enough. The one ounce pouch thing has me confused as well, so I hope someone with more experience has an answer for us! Following

Once process has started, how long to schedule surgery?
From first visit to actual surgery my time was 4 mos and it seemed like forever! Lol

Protein
How much are you trying for daily? I am currently getting at minimum 60g some days closer to 70; that comes from 2 protein drinks and protein water. Some days its a struggle as is drinking all the water suggested; but I do focus more on meeting that protein goal! Sorry I'm no more help on any other supplement ideas

Cheated on Liver Shrinking Diet
Don't sweat it; just get back on the diet and keep going. Although I'm sure those crackers tasted like heaven; it won't mess up your surgical date! Hang in there!

Pre op questions
Hi Martin, have you been checked for a hiatal hernia? I found I had a fairly large one after. Ct scan and my dr told me it does push up on the diaphragm; I had it fixed during my surgery on Wed and I swear I can already tell a difference in my breathing now! Might be something to check into!

Pre op questions
You will most definitely have every test done in the world to make sure your body can handle the surgery. Hopefully as you heal and stay healthy you can continue on the weight loss journey! Good luck to you!

February Surgery ?
I don't work and stay busy at home; but speaking for myself, if I did work I'd feel perfectly fine going back tomorrow (surgery was Wed 5th) my real only restriction was not to lift over 10lbs I think staying busy helps so that's what I slowly plan to start tomorrow!

Protein powder for water!
I make sure I get at least 2 protein shakes down a day, that guarantees 60g of protein; all other is a bonus! Not to sure myself. I bought the premier protein water that is premixed but I have to add water because to me it's to sweet.
