Who is your doctor? The pain but I think all of it has been from the hernia repair. Cause everyone says they really didn't have any pain. After surgery I had hard time with Soups, thinking about them make me sick. LOL. Getting my fluids and Protein in has been task. With all that said I'm still happy that I did it. I lost as of Monday which is 6 days out 15lbs.

My Dr. Is Dr. Bass. I also have to have a hernia repaired during surgery! Im worried about the full liquid diet because my sister had the lap-band done and she literally cried because she was so hungry! I also worry about getting the protien in lol I guess its all a big change for a lifetime. 15lbs in 6 days thats great! congrats!!!

Wow really! That's pretty awesome did you like him? I really like the staff there especially Missy she has been an angle through this whole process!

Yes, he is really nice. He did my aunts lap band over year ago. Missy is the sweetest thing. I had couple questions after surgery and Dr Bass called me back himself.

The liquid diet gets easier after about the 2nd or 3 rd day. Your taste buds or they way your stomach feels about certain foods changes after surgery so don't stock up to much on items. The liquid Soups I used 2 different types to give them more taste. Like French onion and beef. Dannon light n fit greek yogurt is high in Protein and taste pretty good. Are u part of the Facebook group or have the my fitness pal app yet??? GOOD LUCK!!!
