I am week two post op. So far, it's hell. I'm having such a hard time getting in Protein, let alone any food. I'm definitely feeling exhausted from lack of food. I am in the full liquid stage. Pulease help me out and let me know what worked for you. Any secretes? So far organic Tomato Soup with unflavored Protein power is all I can do that doesn't make me nauseated.

vanilla premier Protein pre made shakes worked for me it had to be very cold i would put it in the freezer 20 min before drinking. as far as getting Water in i would mix it with apple or grape juice no sugar added. it definetley made getting my Fluid intake alot easier. it does get easier every passing day.

I had a hard time breathing - make sure to get an incentive spermoter! It will make sure you are using your lungs and don't accumulate Fluid in your lungs. I did and ended up in the ER.

Good luck!

Sip, sip, and sip some more. I used my cap from the medicine bottle to drink 30ml every 15 minutes and then increased the frequency after a couple of days.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
