I want to know everyones thoughts on the whole soda thing. I was told no soda. Then someone else through another doctor said no problem. Is their any info anyone has on yes or no? i have had a few sips but had no ill reaction to it. Just curious on any ones experiences or insights on the short and long term.

Your sugars were high prob dut to the lactose ringers you had in your IV. They have dextrose in them( sugar). i am type one and take only 20 units of lantus daily now i was at 100units a day and now with no meal coverage. It does get better and as you lose more weight the less insulin you will need.

EAT....... Everything comes down to portion. You are able to eat a lil Pasta. A sliver of pizza. You just have to know when to walk away. By you depriving yoirself of normal foods you will regret your decision more and more. Yes the sweets are a no no. Smart choices little tates of approved foods will not make or break you day. Remember you can onlyeat a lil bit now make it worth you while. Eat sesnsible done engorge yourself.

I had surgery on monday morning and now my pain is pretty much gone. The belly button area on me is sore especially when i cough but they repaired my hernia there. Other than that i do have to sleep only on my back on the side still hurts. My problem is after my little walks im exhausted to the point where i feel i need to sit and relax. Is this normal? I know i need to start doing things but its like i have no stamina.way worse now than even before surgery. Im chalking it up as im still healing. Anyone else have that issue?

So with the above said i did mot add extremely tired and useup energy fairly quickly im assuming it is the lack of food at this point plus the effect from surgery still.

Im still struggling.

This may be a little gross i apologize now. I have had my first couple ob so called bowel movements keep in mind no solid food for over a week now. When i went it was watery dark brown. It seemed to be a little thicker to thepoint it stayed on the bowl a little. I went again just now and the same. I dont have a fever. Bp is good heart rate is normal. Is this reminince of surgery i had on monday coming through. I started protien shakes two days ago also. Just not sure if i should get excited and go to the docs or is it normal.also any one else have problems getting on their sides to sleep. I have slept in the recliner since coming home. It is the only thing comfy. Sorry if i was long winded. Im just concerned.

I had surgery july2 am home as of last night. I have no drain. Belly is sore but not relly pain. My left ribs though almost on my side are killing me. I am hoping its just the gas. It comes and goes as i position myself so im assuming irs muskular or gas. Any thoughts?
-
Doc just came inand gave me the blessing to go home. Woooooohooooooo. He say everything slow no race for anything. Drink slow walk slow slow slow slow. So excited.

This gas is terrible i feel like a greyhound doing laps on the hospital wing.

I am 1 day out and i did not have a drain doc said it was not necessary. Anyone else with no drain?
