We're surgery twins! Well you're not alone. I've been struggling with my protein goals. I started putting ice cubes in a cup (filling the cup with ice cubes) and drinking my protein shake thus way. It's helping. I'm also feeling super hungry. I just want to chew something! Lol

Hi guys! I did it! My surgery went as scheduled on 6/17. I'm 3 days post op! All went really good, I was only in pain and nauseous after I woke up from Anesthesia. After I was given meds for that, I have not needed pain meds. I started walking right away and so far it has been good. ONLY Complain-- in having a hard time with protein and drinking water/ sf gatorade. Last thing I want is to be dehydrated. I bought the EmergenC Hydration packets on Amazon, hope it works.. and I hope as the days go by, I can drink more protein.

Don't question it.. it is tough and it sucks but remember why you are doing this. If it helps you feel better, somewhere is out there starving with you..! My surgery is MONDAY. And I lost 13pds so far with this preop diet... you can do it!!!! My stomach is growling and I just think about being healthy for myself and my family.

Wishing you a speedy recovery. 🙏🏻 ❤️

You're definitely not alone with this feeling. This is the reason why it took me so long to make a decision to do the surgery in the first place. Our kids depend on us so much, but we need to remember why we are doing this and that we are getting healthy for us and them.

Hi is this everyone?? Lol First post here.. looking for surgery buddy I'm scheduled for Monday, June 17th!
