October Surgery Dates



Recommended Posts

Hello everyone! Sorry for my delay in posting. My surgery went well good on the 9th. No complications at all. I don't remember being wheeled into or out of surgery. I was really worried about post op pain & I had none. I stayed 3 nights in the hospital which consisted of walking & resting. I am able to tolerate liquids as if I didn't have surgery. I have to be careful not to guzzle fluids. I thought I would have trouble sipping but that's no issue. I'm gettining in popsicles' date=' pudding, Jello, Carnation Instant Breakfast, G2 gatorade & creamed Soups. Is there something that I'm missing? I feel like I'm not getting enough of my fluids/protein in. (?) I wasn't given any instructions from discharge at the hospital. I know someone will come along & help me out here. Thank you for your insight!!

Congrats to those how had surgery with me!![/quote']

My surgery was on the 9th as well! My nutritionist/surgeon said to get in 64 oz of sugar free liquids a day and drink 1 oz Protein Shake every 15 min.

My last day of my liquid diet. Even managed to go out and watch a football game at bar yesterday. Took my mug of warm broth' date=' drank Water and a container of muscle milk light. I made it thru the wings and celery and chicken wrap and frys around me but almost lost it for the pretzel.

Heading to the office to wrap up some paperwork, finish up cleaning and packing then Ill be ready to go to the hospital at 530 tomorrow AM.

Its taken this whole year to get to now and I AM READY.

Is there any one else out there with surgery tomorrow?

Speedy recovery to all those who are postop and here's to seeing you on the losers bench.Blessings to all those having surgery this week and thru the end of October.[/quote']

My surgery is tomorrow as well. I have to be there by 630 and surgery at 8. Praying for all my October buddies as well.

Hello every1 I had my surgery on the 8th and came home on the 10th I didnt want anything to do with food it turned my stomach to smell chix broth, but im doing much better now I had that pain on the left side that every1 has. The only thing is I have a pulling feeling on the left my surgeon says it is absolutely normal, so outside of feeling week due to lack of food and the pulling on the left im doing great. Im still taking pain meds but not much longer, today was a Great Day my surgeon ROCKS.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
