Food question

So I was given a post op diet and told what I can have but not how much. Yesterday I had half a cup of apple juice, 2 jello snack cups, and a small cup of broth. Is that normal. Everyday I can eat more (4 days post op). Plus I got weighed on sunday 213 and today 213 is that normal. Today i'm going to gnc to get my liquid vitamins any suggestions.

How much Water are you getting in between that? The main concern right now is getting in as much fluids as you possibly can. Your minimum should be 64 oz total, which those fluids you mentioned above do count toward that total. Per the weight, right now your only concern should be following your post op diet. This diet is not for losing weight it is to heal. The weight will follow, so yes that right now is normal for YOU as long as you are doing what your surgeon advised.

Try not do anything that causes discomfort, if taking larger sips causes this then take smaller sips. You'll just have to sip sip sip, walk walk walk, rest rest rest all day for right now. :)
