You stated that you had already had your protein shake for the evening...Do you only drink one protein shake a day? How many grams or protein are you taking in? The minimum requirement is 60 gms/day but you can have more. 60-80 gms is the basic for women. It is what makes you feel full. As for the alcohol...I would steer clear. I do occasionally have a glass of wine, but I didn't try it until I was almost a year out.

Are you still on liquids or have you advanced to soft foods? Usually for the first 4 weeks it is liquids then advancing to softs as tolerated. I know all doctors are different and give different post op routines and was just wondering what yours was.

I would definitely go and get some taken out. You are too tight.
