I'm having my surgery Oct 5th my per op class is Sept 23rd. I'm getting super excited only thing that worries me is missing classes I just enrolled into two classes and they start the 14th I'll be missing 3 classes plus a whole week of surgery. Hoping my teachers will be okay and let me work it out so I don't fall behind or get knocked for missing class.

So any tips are welcome!!!

I'm having an issue getting Water and Protein in. I can manage one or the other but then one gets left out. I know both are crucial so any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated.

I'm having trouble with my water also, what I have been doing is adding unjury unflavored Protein powder to a 20oz Powerade zero. Then I drink bottled water to get the rest of my fluids in for the day.

I didn't think about adding the unflavored to my propel that is a great idea! Do u like the unjury unflavored? I got a sample of Matrix and Jay Robb to try.

Genepro unflavored protein is also great 30 grams of protein in 1 tablespoon. Can add to anything water flavored water hot food cold food anything I bought mine on amazon. Love it.

Can I use the hershey or great value sugar free Splenda chocolate syrup for shakes after surgery

Have lost 10 lbs in my pre-op diet so far. This Friday is the big day

I haven't tried any of the other's the unjury unflavored has 20 grams protein per scoop & seems to be ok. If you can find something that gives you more like what Jenaenae84 suggested you might try it.

Do yall think only 2 weeks off for surgery is not enough for a person with a manual labor job? My surgeon thinks 2 weeks is plenty but I don't think he really understands when I say I have a physically demanding job. I work an hour from home

Thank you everyone for the tips. I have an unflavored Protein from trader joes. I'm going to have to start adding that to flavored waters or broths.

I agree I don't think 2 weeks is enough for a labor intense job. I am still pretty store and I had surgery Wednesday. I just went to Walmart and I am so tired.

I don't think I'd be ready in 2 weeks apparently your dr never worked hard

I couldn't do it! Not with a physically demanding job. I'm having trouble getting a walk in every day & I'm 17 days out. I think at least 3 weeks. Best of luck to you!

I am going back Tuesday (after almost 3 weeks) and I am scared to death it is too soon. And my job is not all that physical.
