Hi guys!
Im about a little over 2 weeks post op and i feel like i am not handling my "meals" and my liquids well! Theres not enough hours in the day! I started purees today.....okay while writing that I wanted to slap myself in the forehead and tell myself to chill and give myself time to get the flow of things. Lol.
But seriously, I had one egg this morning with cheese and a bit of chopped ham and had half of it for a snack later on in the day. I had a bite or two of tuna and then split a small container of canned mandarins for snack and dinner. And on top of that I drank as much Water as i could. Im still sipping now.... But damn! Getting in everything I need is like a full time job! Lol
How did you guys plan yourselves better to actually have your 5-6 meals a day and the fluids without exploding?! At some point I feel like my little tummy is expanding with all the liquids im trying to get in.
Any advice on how you did it? How you paced yourself?
