Hey, I'm 11 days post op. I had a hard time getting food down the first several days. My dietitician said she is concerned with liquids more so than food. I relied on chicken broth during the first days. It seemed to go down much faster than regular Water. One day I had only 17 oz of water and I felt like crap. I was light headed, unstable when walking, and dizzy. Keep drinking those liquids! You have to! Remember, it will only get better. SIP SIP SIP!

If you're having trouble with one kind, try another. You need that protein! Good luck!
