May 24th! On the 2nd day of my liver reduction diet!

[Lana R. 31]

I'm two days post-op and feeling great! I think the worst part is the gas pain. Another person I met gave me some gasx strips and they do help. I read somewhere on this site that it feels like you did a killer ab workout and I would have to agree. Not bad at all though!

I'm glad you are feeling great. Today is 5 days post op and I'm miserable. I can't get enough Protein down. After I drink I feel so full I could vomit. Maybe it has to do from throwing up so much the day I had surgery ... maybe I have additional swelling? I'm starting to think I made a mistake. .

I am day 6 post op. Went in weighing 222 and came out weighing 228. I was told it was due to the liquids. I weighed today and I am 215 a 13 pound drop since I left the hospital 5 days ago. I am up and moving around even went shopping. I did the pre op liquids for a week prior and my doctor had me on solid foods on the 5th day post op in small amounts I have to eat 60 grams of Protein a day. But I can hardly finish this amount because I am not hungry. All in all I would say the worse part was the liquids. I have no regrets I am glad I got the surgery.

I think plateaus are perfectly normal. the weight WILL come off, we just have to stick with it.

I had my surgery on the 24th, and had my staples taken out yesterday. I feel okay most of the time, but like most ppl here I get gas pains. also my shoulders still hurt like I've been lifting weights. ???? starting to ease into purees now, and oh boy is it nice to have some more solid food after four weeks pre-op on shakes and now two weeks post-op on liquids.

I can have cottage cheese, but nothing stringy or too starchy. no Pasta or rice or cheese (except parmesan) for another three weeks.
