Desperately seeking a mentor/buddy

Hi, I'm a week out from surgery and confused as hell! If anyone is able to help me and lead me in the right direction I'd be eternally grateful [emoji8]

I had my surgery in Belgium and live in the U.K. So I'm finding it hard to navigate when/what/how regarding intake and was never given any advice about daily protein targets... [emoji33]

Any advice or support very welcome!

Thx

Oh my goodness. I had my bypass done on the 20th of July. I am 2 weeks out as of today. I went to the Cleveland Clinic in Ohio and had mine done. I can share with you what I have been shown. My Dr still has me on a full liquid diet. Your body needs time to heal. So let it rest and heal. Don't lift more then 5 lbs. The inside will take lo her to heal then the outside. Protein target should be a minimum of 60 grams and fluid total including protein shakes, water down Apple juice, or sugar free frozen ice, should be 64 ounces, (8 glasses) dehydration is the main reason people are re-admitted. Also by now you should be chewing 2 children's vitamins. Iron supplement and calcium. Here is a copy of my book1501746374072.jpeg1501746437895.jpeg1501746464428.jpeg1501746485336.jpeg1501746528093.jpeg1501746565543.jpeg
