Jeepchick42 193 Posted June 11, 2013 My dad is coming to get me on his way home from work. Gonna visit with him and my mom for a while. Then he's going to take me grocery shopping for some things people have suggested like condensed Soups and Carnation Instant Breakfast.< /div> I know Protein Powder isn't sitting well with you but try non fat dry milk powder mixed into Soup or the carnation instant breakfast. It has 8grams of Protein in a scoop. It'll be nice to get out if the house and having a change of scenery. Getting some fresh air might help too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites futuremrsparker 288 Posted June 11, 2013 My dad is coming to get me on his way home from work. Gonna visit with him and my mom for a while. Then he's going to take me grocery shopping for some things people have suggested like condensed Soups and Carnation Instant Breakfast. That's good. Carnation Instant Breakfast is so yummy too! I've always loved it and can't wait till I can have it. Lol I'm sorry you're having such a hard time holding things down! That's terrible. If it keeps up, make sure you go in for some fluids. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Mandee80 27 Posted June 11, 2013 Made it!!! Gas pains horrible!

I check in at 9 and surgery is at 11. I am nervous now... I go in at 8am and they told me I was probably the last surgery of the day. What's up with that? Last surgery of the day and no liquids! I'm not looking forward to the day long wait.

Last surgery of the day and no liquids! I'm not looking forward to the day long wait. I am sorry that stinks. I was worried about going 12+ hours without anything to drink too. Ill drink a glass at midnight. They aren't making me do a bowel prep because I've been on liquids for thirty days. I did drink 1/2 of magnesium citrate because I wanted cleaned out. Kind of regretting that now. Liquids in liquids out. I have a headache too but afraid to take anything for it.

Wasn't bad. I hope I like the Carnation as much as everyone else. Seems to get rave reviews!!! All that came up on me today was the two super cold things I tried - Jello and a popsicle.
