So are any of you actually hungry right after surgery? I will be in the hospital for 2 nights and from what I've been told its ice chips only the first 24 hours. I'm just curious if your actually hungry or if ice chips is about all you really want??

Im 4 days out I think I may have been hungry twice, but Im still not sure I was. Im not hungry at all and have no desire to eat. I am only doing so because my nutritionist said I have to and I wont heal plus my hair will fall out without Protein. Based on the posts I have seen I am assuming this will change but this has currently killed my love affair with food and even my normal primal urge to eat to survive.

I just had surgery yesterday, I couldn't have anything (ice chips/water) til today after I passed the leak test.

I'm NOT hungry at all. But I'm sipping my Water and tried some Protein Powder in some Soup, had 3 sips and that was enough!

I didnt even think about food post op. Now two months out I eat about 600 calories a day.

      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.

      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.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
