Got my date... September 3rd. Anyone else scheduled this day or in September?

I also have to start drinking my fluids the moment I get up or else I get busy and forget about it. Then before you know it, a few hours have passed!

Dang I feel like my surgery has failed already because I never feel full(I don't get hungry either though). I keep my water bottle on me and sip all day and easily get around 80 oz/day without ever getting a full feeling.

maybe because it is just liquid?

Are you able to start your protein shakes now? I had two of those a day and it really really helped with feeling full.

I have started my Protein drinks and I get 30-50 grams in right now. I'm not worried about feeling hungry. I'm just worried they made my pouch huge or something lol. I don't understand how others get uncomfortable when drinking Water, but I never do.

Hey guys!! Nervous wreck here. Monday I started to have foot pain, so Tuesday I saw the dr and thought it was gout, blood work done. By end of day swelling was huge. She thought I had a blood clot so went for a doppler this morning, got blood results which sed rate was sky high. Was called back to hospital for more test. Now I am waiting to go to specialist on Monday. They want me to take aspirin but only two days cause Friday is last day for blood thinners. Please say a little prayer that he is gonna release me for surgery on the 27th.

I feel the same way. I never feel full either, but I'm usually satisfied until my next meal. Sometimes I wonder if Im taking to much in. I'm 2 weeks out and I can easily eat a 5.3 ounce of Greek yogurt in one sitting. I've never had a problem taking in fluids, Proteins if many types of food so far. This is good but also scary. I don't want to eat more the I should!

The nurse told me before I left the hospital that it could take up to 3 days for a bowel movement. But it is unusually that you aren't passing gas.

I had surgery 09/16 @ 10:00 CST and didn't start passing gas until today 09/18. It makes you feel better, so hopefully it will start soon. My husband is acting like a drill sergeant and he makes me walk, so maybe that has something to do with it.
