Take it slowly, you just had major surgery! Drink enough to stave off the dizziness. Try Gatorade, or some other kind of Protein mix, Special K has one to mix with Water. Try having a popcicle, too! for gas, walking is good, also Gas-x tabs that melt on your tongue are helpful.

normal when you are just 2 days post op.. sip liquids, get lots of rest, pain can be handled with liquid tylenol or pain meds as prescribed by Dr. you are probably dehydrated which makes you feel hungry.. try getting more fluids..Contact your Dr. if symptoms persist...

Banded 7-24... I am amazed how much better I feel 9 days post op. Here is what I learned... Sip sip sip even when you don't want too. Your body needs the fluids! Get in your protein.. Because it will give you the energy you're not getting from food. At first I had to use the tasteless powder to put in my Water and crystal light... Now I am getting Protein Shakes in! Walk even if it hurts! It gets the gas moving and also just generally makes you feel better! I was shocked at how well I adjusted to the hunger! I started working on things for my classroom and I learned to manage the hunger! If I can survive this liquid diet .... I can make better good choices when I can eat! Best of all...,. I learned to keep posting on here and reach out when you need help! These people are amazing and know your struggle! We will hold your hand when things get rough! God bless!

walk...walk...walk! Drink your water...plenty of it! At three days post op was making sure I got my 60 grams of Protein in! I know it sounds funny.....but I felt better when I walked. Make sure you take Tylenol between the other meds. I stopped the pain meds at day 3 with the exception of tylenol. Walking and water! You are turning the corner....Have a great day. Lisa

I was also banded July 31. Trying to balance rest with walking, breathing exercises and just moving around. Could barely eat until thus morning but feeling better all the time.

The first 48 hours were very rough, was convinced I had made a BIG mistake. But as I improve I am starting to look forward to a lighter, healthier future.

Was banded July 31st to gas pain in belly, eatting sugar free popcisles and drinking chicken broth and Water. Walking around helps gas x strips helps rest when you can that's what I do. When I get up feels like my belly is gonna drop off lol but over all I'm getting better!

I used a cane for the first 3 days post op for fear of falling. Walked when I could for short distances and just worked up a little more each day. Make sure you are getting the right amount of Protein and it will changes. Best of luck on your journey.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

      Lost my Pup last month and struggled really hard for that first month. Stopped tracking intake and slid into old habits here and there. Also quit working out. Can't walk in the neighborhood because of all of the memories we shared. Losing my Pup is the most heartbreaking thing I've ever been through. My Pup was my world 💔
      Talked to my doc during my one year followup and they were not worried about my current status. They know, and I know, that I will get back on track.
