My surgery was June 2nd. I have pain under my ribs on my left side. I am super fatigued, but I figured out a game to play to keep me walking. My son drives me over to the super Walmart and we walk every isle. We look for foods that I can have on a liquid diet. There is hardly anything to eat at WW. We are going to costco tomorrow!

I plan on doing the same! As weird as it is, the supermarket was always my happy place (aside from the kitchen) so I'm actually looking forward to walking up and down the aisles and figuring out what I can eat! I'm also struggling with residual pain under the ribs but mine's on the right side, and the activity definitely helps, at the very least as a distraction.

This sounds like a great idea! I love going to the supermarket as well so I’ll be implementing your game as soon as I am able to yeeeiii! Best wishes on your recovery!

Congrats you are through surgery,get some rest and hoping your gas pain is relieved soon!
Surgery done! Staying in the hospital 3 days just monitoring fluid. Leak test around midnight tonight and if I’m cleared they want me to try soup and jello. I have to be honest, I was in a lot more pain waking up than I thought. Gas pains are awful, a little better now with walking but wow. Good luck to everyone this week & those who had their surgeries today! We did it!

Yay! I hope the pain is manageable and the liquids are easy!
