3 days out of surgery

It has been 3 days since surgery. The only issue I have is gas pains, which is normal. Trying to get all the fluid in is work. I love sugar free popcycles. Good luck for those getting ready for their surgery.

Don't force yourself to drink a lot I was trying to get 48 ounces of water in when I first got out and told by my doctor nurse not to force m...well wish I had known this from day one...they just kept telling me to drink drink drink...I have an apt next week to see my doctor...Take it easy and good luck

I got home last night. Was sleeved Wed the 14th. Aside from the pain on my right side, the only difficult part is forcing the water down. I only got about 8 oz of water in. But I had 3 sugar free Popsicles and 8 oz of chicken broth. The broth made me feel super full though. I'm really looking forward to feeling better soon!!!

I was sleeved on the 14. The first few days were hard to get liquids in, today has been a bit easier.

I was also sleeved on the 14th I'm extremely thirsty so I think last night I drank too much water leaving me with extreme pains rising in the sleep ... I've had so much heartburn ... At least that's what I think it is ... As soon as I start walking it feels better .... I'm only sleeping 2 to 4 hours max
