because there's so much variation in our surgeons post op diets I thought I'd see what everyone else is doing post op day 7-14..

I am post op day 7 and basically still doing lots of Clear liquids with some full liquids thrown in.. one or two Protein shakes a day.. getting in about 60-70 oz Water (if you include all the broth lol) taking my chewable multivit and feeling good!

I am 9 days post op & I am doing protein shakes, cream soups, pureed soups, sf popsicles & sf jello

I am 11 days post-op, I am doing protein shakes, water, chicken broth, SF fudge popsicles, SF popsicles, SF Jello and Baby food: bananas, applesauce, mango and pears. Not hungry physically just starting to battle a little with head hunger!!!!

I am 4 days out and I was wondring how often you drinking or eating your clear liquids. I am trying to get my protein intake to 60 grams.

Thanks

I feel like I am constantly sipping on something LOL my doctor told me to "eat" (have broth or soup) every 3-4 hours with Water in between

Thank you nursgirl. I am eating every 2 to 3 hours but I am not get all my fluids in but I can get my Protein in.

I am constantly sipping water or having a shake or soup...it is necessary to get all of it in. Since day one I have gotten in my 70-80 g protein & my 64 oz of water

I wasn't able to drink all my protein until today, day 7. You are pretty swollen at this point. I went and got my drains out today and my dr told me she doesn't care if I drink or eat anything at all as long as I get my Protein shakes in. Then if I am still hungry or thirsty, then I can have broth and Water etc. I know all Dr.'s are different though!

I am on day 6 and was on clear liquids only until this morning. Now I am on full liquids for 2 weeks - today I had protein shakes, some greek yogurt (the second serving I flavored with guacamole seasoning of all things) and cream soups.
