Ashley,

Its not so bad. I am on my 8th day. My surgery is March 12. I had a bit of a headache for the first 2 days but that went away.

Try to drink as much Water as you can. That helped me. ;) I just joined this forum yesterday. So I am new too!

Good luck with everything!

Jacquie

My doctor does not have us start the liquid diet until AFTER the surgery. Why would you need to start weeks before? I was always curious.

I start my full liquid phase diet today. Any suggestions?? Do a lot of people have problems tolerating dairy?

Just go slow and see how things settle I'm sure your doc gave you approved foods. Some People say that dairy bothers them right after its hard to say if that's so or not, because honestly your digestive tract is going be a mess in the first couple of weeks.

Cream Soups are good like chicken just strain them first :)

      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! 😞
