I start my new life tomorrow. I have to be at the hospital at 5a.m. Please say a prayer for me and the medical staff. Thank you friends.

Surgery went well...felt bad this morning but meds were adjusted and I was good...then exhausted then good again...nausea though when trying to take in water. Should be going home tomorrow.

Bigbeauty78 how are you doing today? Me much better still nausea on and off...but I am getting around good. Being released from the hospital today. Now drinking isopure to start my protein. I am afraid to drink too much.

Doing much better today. No pain medicine taken at all. Only thing bothering me is my drain. It comes out next Wednesday. Water still makes me nauseous, so drinking my Protein shake. Happy Halloween

So happy you are doing good. A big ole woot woot to the new journey in our lives for the better. Have a happy Halloween too!!!

Soontobe how are you feeling today? I'm still struggling getting fluids in. I have developed a mild cause of thrush. (White tongue) I need to up my fluids. Learning all over again..

bigbeauty78...I definitely didn't do well with protein yesterday but I left the hospital at 2 and left my drink there and didn't get home till 4. My chocolate drink stayed down but I felt like I was drinking it forever. Today is my first full day at home and I started with water because of my thyroid meds...but I will start protein about 7:15 I hope I can do pretty good...it is all laid out on the counter. I can't do cold it hurts right now. I hope we both do good with fluids and protein today. Pain is minimal but I can't overdo it.

Glad you made it home. I'm on full liquids now. Starting to feel a bit hungry, thinking it's more of head hunger tho. I'm doing pretty good with eating ice pops. Down 7lbs since surgery on Monday. Good luck!!!!

Bigbeauty78...wow you are on full liquids?? We have 2 weeks clear, 2 weeks full, 2 weeks purees and 2 weeks soft foods. Which means I will lose quite a bit before I go back to work lol I am just now balancing out to my pre-op weight but they said that would happen.

I had 2-3 days clear and now 1 week of full. I was able to drink a premier protein shake today. Got in at least 30 grams of protein. The doctor had me drinking clear liquids the day of my surgery, after my swallow test looked good. Hang in there friend!

I'm the same - had surgery on Tuesday and was in full liquids on Thursday. I too got in one full primer shake!! It's hard remembering to eat - I think I'm gonna have to set a timer lol

Good morning, It's a beautiful cool morning here in N.W. Fla. Sipping on my protein shake. How are you doing soon to be? My incisions are starting to heal, they are itchy. Wish you well!!
