Hey guys! I’m having surgery in two weeks!! Looking for anyone have surgery in April that would want to maybe chat and keep in touch or share suggestions. I have my pre op and post op diets but would love to know what kind of recipes you all are planning to try or what protein supplements everyone is planning to have. Also anyone have to drink Gatorade right before surgery? I thought that was wierd.

anyone know what vitamins we should have after surgery?? I’ve been waiting to hear back from my nutritionist because I don’t meet with her till after surgery but I want to know ahead of time so I can start buying some.

thanks!

Just came back from my first doctors visit 6 days after surgery I lost 22lbs ie 10kgs and he allowed me to move onto a full liquid diet. I am uber happy and excited and cant wait for the rest of this beautiful journey to unfold!

Luckily I didn't have the nausea or vomitting. U can take gas x dissolve tabs. It goes away in about 3 days..at least it did for me. Hang in there. The transition out of the hospital is a little hard... U don't get that great pain med.

My pain was pretty much gone when I left the hospital. I took non narcotic pain meds twice when I got home and stopped because of the taste. but it was manageable without meds.

Where they liquid or chewable tylenol? Or did you crush tylenol?
