Cam5992 4 Posted June 1, 2013 The main incision takes about 14 days to heal. The best thing to do to is walk around as much as possible! Make sure you stay hydrated! I am 5 months out and feel amazing. It gets easier, I promise you! 1 Bizzness81@aol.com reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bizzness81@aol.com 27 Posted June 1, 2013 Hi mitz I'm doing better each day and today I had my first bowel movement. It's actually funny how I feel so close to everyone on here that I keep talking about passing gas and bowel movements lol. It is a difficult process and don't let anyone tell you differently. Just keep your goal in mind and you will do fine. 1 AshleyMidwife reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mitz 221 Posted June 2, 2013 I'm suppose to get the surgery done with robotics; is that how you was done or was it done the old way? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lego78 8 Posted June 3, 2013 Lego how are you doing with fluids ? Today I had 3 oz of orange sugar free Jello 3oz beef broth and 3 oz chicken broth for dinner. Water was making me feel nausea but I've been getting my water in by sucking on ice cubes I could only tolerate water and pop cycles at first, Your body will let you know when it is safe to drink more. I am now starting on reduced fat cream Soups, milk and broth. I am trying to maintain my Protein levels. Im still weak because I know I have not consumed enough protein.
