[newbeginning77 26]

I am 5 days postop and almost feeling back to normal haven't had any problems yet minor pain only from the main incision. Was having trouble getting fluids in but today they advanced me to full liquid so i was able to get in a full Premier Protein shake and 1 bottle of Water so far and a little bit of sugar free pudding made with almond milk.it tasted like heaven after the clear liquid diet.im down 4 lbs so far. Mothers day was kinda hard watching everyone eat but i sat away with my Protein and water.I am just so glad its over I was so freaked outand almost cancelled. I cried halfway to the hospital and was 2 hrs early my surgeon took me right in and said he was doing me early so I had no chance to back out.Now that its over this has been the easiest and fastest recovery I have had with any of my surgeries. I am so happy so far cant wait to get to soft food

Hello to all. My surgery is tomorrow I have to be at the hospital at 10:00am. I'm nervous and sad at the same time. Sad that I'm losing most of my stomach. Please pray for me that I have a easy recovery. I'm ready to begin my new life.

My surgery date is May 28 th. Starting to get a little anxious now. Had pre op lab work done today. I will be seeing my surgeon on the 19 th and a class at his office then go to the hospital to see the anesthesia department. I am in the process now of trying different Protein Shakes to see what's tolerable. Which ones have you all found that you like?

Good luck Val, but you don't need it, you'll be just fine. Still, I'll be sending supportive energies your way for a swift recovery.

I'm having the procedure on 5/28 too. I have a preop class on the 19th too. I met with my surgeon last week.

I like the Premier Protein drinks. My fave is the strawberries and cream but my daughter in law likes the chocolate and vanilla.< /p>
