Janetbu reacted to MSStoney in What do you wish you had knownI just had my surgery 6/30/2020. First 2 days were tough but since everything has been textbook.
The one thing I wish I knew ahead of time was how easily I would get tired. I understand this is normal but I expected to regain my normal energy pretty quickly. I had to tell myself today to just relax and enjoy the afternoon naps.

Janetbu reacted to JRT Mom in What do you wish you had knownHow about a positive answer? I wish I had known how much fun being a normal weight would be!?
Or that I can finally look good in clothes!

Janetbu reacted to Erica McKinley in What do you wish you had knownI wish I would have been told about: (1) the post-op nausea and constipation, (2) how sore my throat and esophagus would be, (3) how I would not progress to pureed foods as soon as others, (4) how my liquid intake should be 4 ounces, slipped remarkably slowly, (5) how I could not possibly down 64 ounces of water and protein right away, even when sipping at 4 ounce increments throughout the day, and (5) how I should have initially purchased liquid vitamins and patches rather than chewable ones, because I could not swallow them.
