Have you spoken with your dietician/nutritionist about the watermelon? What is on your post op guidelines to eat at this stage aside from Water and shakes? liquid only Soups? Broths? What other fluids?

I wouldn't do watermelon early out because of the seeds. I unfortunately do not remember when I was allowed to have it but I know it was not allowed at 5 days out. Maybe ask your nutritionist about seedless watermelon but even that may be too soon at 5 days out.

Ok I will but is the first week the hardest because I am really just drinking 1 shake a day I will say I am struggling but thank you for the quick answer

You may be able to juice seedless watermelon. Is it just the flavor that you are craving?? Even that I would run it by the nutritionist though.

Why are you not drinking more shakes? Is it just hard to get it down?? Or you don’t like them?? Because it they are too sweet I had that issue too. I found the clear Protein Water to be less intense flavor wise and once I was allowed to have caffeine I tried the premiere protein caffe latte which I still enjoy one a day over a year later.

I am going to start with the Protein Water drinks an that caffe latte is nasty right now this is so new an uncomfortable but I will be ok I am glad I can ask questions but this week make 2 weeks

I took the colace that the surgeon suggested starting immediately post surgery and I eventually took milk of magnesia when I still hadn’t had movement and that worked. Then starting the next day I took benefiber daily to keep things moving (Walmart has a generic powder that’s way cheaper).

Yes I lost five pounds my first week but not everyone does. Lots of things like inflammation and fluids can affect weight that early out. It is hard. It’s good that you are already starting to distinguish head hunger from actual hunger though. Are you allowed to have sugar free popsicles and Jello. I had lots of those because I felt like I got to chew which helped.
