How are you doing today? Checking in because I am having the same issue. Our surgery was the same day and I’m getting half my water in and next to nothing for protein. I can’t stand the taste or smell anymore.

My surgery was 2/13 as well and I’m in the same boat. I’m just now able to drink some water a little better but still only getting about 30oz. The protein makes me sick so that’s not even come close. I’m worried about it. I had to go back in fluids once too. Then I see some people with no trouble at all.

I switched to the BariMelts and have been doing a lot better with them. Why are they not recommended by your doctor? the protein shakes and powders that I was able to tolerate before surgery now make me sick even thinking about. The powders all smell and taste horrible to me. And the shakes are so thick that they just don’t sit well with me. I will have to try the yogurt!!!!

Had my surgery on 2/13 and honestly have had a really rough time. I’m struggling to get in water much less anything else. I had to go back in for fluids once already yesterday and still today only got a little over 20oz water all day plus some soup broth. I keep hearing it’ll get better. But wheeeeeeennn?
