I am 6 days post op and I had both. The pain was something I haven't experienced before. I know I was supposed to be walking but the pain was so exhausting. I couldn't get anything down. I am really just getting some water down. I feel like everytime I swallow there is air that wants to come at the same time. I know I can't tolerate cold liquids and everything has to be warm

Hi Everyone, I just wanted to see if there were anyone that is near for a buddy system or can direct me to good support groups, nutritionists or dieticians in the metro-area.

I am in Atlanta. I have to start my high protein diet on the 28th. Any suggestions on protein drinks or shakes

You will get through!! I have to do a two day. Can you give me any liquids that works for you?

Cool. How long is your liquid diet?

I am in the Atlanta area. How about you?

Thank you

Here it is 7 hours since I received my dates of when to start my high protein diet, my liquid diet and my procedure (March 28, April 9-10, and April 11)and reality seemed to set in. I have been on this journey since September ‘17 always knowing what the end result would be but I always thought I had time to prep my self. I guess to pre-game. Being conscious of what I ate more, turning up my activity level or even to venture into awareness of self control. Now that I have solid dates I am feeling like I am failing already. I don’t know maybe I am the only one. I just don’t want this to be in vain. I am glad that I came across this support platform. I need help to get out of this mindset and refocus

Thank you. We do!!

It is. The stress didn’t hit me until that call today. I guess I had it all masked[emoji17]

I received my date about two hours ago! Yay! April 11. I start my high protein diet on the March 28.

Me too. Where are you located. I am super-excited and nervous too. I just received the information literally two hours ago
