Your weight will fluctuate its normal, go easy on the potatoes. At three weeks I was on puréed food and could hardly eat 1/4 cp of anything besides liquids.< /p>

Protein Drinks and water... I was stalled at 3 weeks so I just made myself concentrate on just Protein and Water. You can do it! Our weight does fluctuate. The doc said to take 2 sips of Milk of Magnesia every hour until I go when Constipation hits. Usually takes 2 hours...lol

Drink drink drink drink!

I failed to drink and 2 weeks post op almost died of a massive pulmonary embolism. It was caused by dehydration.

Take a drink after you read this.
