2 Days Post Op Am I Having Too Much?



Recommended Posts

Today started with 12oz Protein drink. Between 10am to 630pm I had 1 cup of beef broth' date=' 1 cup cream of mushroom puréed and 1/2 cup no sugar apple sauce. 34oz of Water in between and I'm going to have another Protein drink later. Too much ?[/quote']

I'm 2 days post op and I'm suppose to eat 6 meals of only 1/4 cup liquid and Water between. Hard for me to get that down. Lots of gurgling and gas when I eat. But I'm doing I think well. Pain is getting minimal except port site. How are you doing?

Pain is okay except for some stiffness from not sleeping at all the first night post op in the hospital. I had no problem today with what I ate that's why I made this post. I'm walking a lot.

I'm sure all the docs are different. If he says ok to eat that much then sure it is ok. I slept as well as possible the first night as the deloclan (sp) for pain they gave just knocked me out. Keep doing well. Best wishes.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
