But also want those who will be having surgery with me at the same time to chat...

Glad you are home in your own bed! My mom had a hernia repair too. She just had some tomato soup. She's very tired. I'm sure you are sore, every day it will get better.

I agree....ty glad shes doing well too

How is everyone doing with fluid intake? I can only get about 1 1/2 ounces down every 15min or so...and thats pushing it...still walking and getting this gas out of me

I can't get the 100 ounces recommended by my Dr , I'm not feeling dehydrated , so it's a good thing

Yeah not dehydrated here either...just sipping away....my belly blk and blue from shots though...

I am feeling great today, going to see a movie tonight! How is everyone else doing?

Lucky u...my belly still tight esp in the hernia area...still moving slow...but picking up more and more...just tired of drinking...im not hungry and not thirsty so everything by force...but feel good in general

Omg sick of drinking.... And still 1 more week!

I move to stage 2 today, protein shakes, yogurt, cream soups, yum!!

Im on stage 3 in our program stage 1 is NPO...stage 2 is clear liquids...stage 3 yogurt, cream soups etc...stage 4 is pureed food...doing the best i can...doctor and nutritionist called tofay to check on me...and gave me some tips...to try...very tired today so gonna nap...glad it seems to be easy for you.

I'm doing mine this tuesday

I hope you feel better soon, get a lot of rest that will help for sure! I really am surprised how great I feel, I do go back to work on Monday, so I am glad I am healing quickly!

Are you excited Craig?

God bless you! Cause i know what i feel is temp...i often wonder if i did make a mistake....too late regardless

I think everyone has that thought, I remember the day of surgery I thought that too. I really do feel a lot better everyday. It will only be a short time, you will feel better soon!

I had mine on the same day.are you dealing with the soreness ok?
