I am really struggling to get down these the fluids...it's 8pm and I've gotten 20ozs of fluids in and I should be taking in more than that. I just don't have the appetite and the top of my stomach hurts. In addition, I am still burping like crazy. Sucking on SF popsicles seem to relieve the discomfort I'm experiencing, I really need to get down the protein liquids, but I gag at the though of it. My fluids intake should be more than 20 ozs...I think???? As far as the healing process, I am able to move around with some discomfort, so that's good news. I have an appt with dr this Friday and I will discuss what's going on with me. I know that this journey will get better.

I went to see the dietician today to discuss the first few weeks post op diet..... she said what they recommend every patient do is keep a plastic one oz cup and try to drink one oz of liquid every fifteen minutes all day long. I know how difficult it is to drink when you're not thirsty, and especially if you have zero appetite, so maybe it won't be as easy as I think, but I'm kind of hoping that one oz at a time might make it doable??

I hope it gets easier for you!! hang in there!:tea:
