Post-surgery hotel stay and flight back home- what did you eat?



Recommended Posts

I'm trying to figure out what to pack for my surgery next week. I'll have the two nights at the hotel, and then a full day of travel back to my home. What will I be able to drink...especially for Protein? I'm packing some Injury chicken Soup, and wondering if Protein Powder would be a waste of space in my suitcase. Plus, if I have to bring all those packets of powder back to the U.S. because I didn't use them, the Border Agents might pull me aside! :)

I think I just drank a Gatorade on the way back but I found a restaurant in the airport on the way there that had chicken Soup and I ate the broth.< /p>

I did the same. The hotel should provide you with your broth and icecicle. My Cordinator set me up with a nice basket of drinks and things to go home with and after I left MX I shopped all day in San Diego and dined on any broth that came in the available Soup on the menus.

You wont need Protein Powder. Just drink Water, gatorade and broths and you will be fine.

I brought bullion cubes and asked the flight attendant for a cup of hot Water. Easy peasy!

This is why I love this forum. I was wondering the same thing especially since I'm going alone. How would I get my liquids in while I am in a hotel. I think the unjury chicken broth is a good idea and maybe some of their unflavored protein to mix in Water with crystal light. I'm getting sleeved by Dr. Alvarez on march 2nd. Good luck to you.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
