First post-op appt done!



Recommended Posts

I'm one week post-op and had my first appt. My drain was removed---hallelujah!! I have lost 17 pounds this week! 17 unbelievable pounds!!!! I'm still in shock. And I get to move onto puréed foods too. Gonna have some fork-mashed salmon and puréed spinach. Sounds like a feast fit for a queen!!!

I had the drain out on the 3rd day.. Yuck.. Was gross.. lol

pureed diet is the worst!! Maybe because it was the longest diet for me but goodluck.

Actually it happened so fast I didn't really feel more than a quick little "wiggle" inside me. Totally thankful for that since my mother told me she had a drain once and it felt like a "razor blade covered snake" coming out!!! Completely not my experience thankfully!

I am so worried about mine coming out in Thursday. It's been in for a month. I have a G drain, not a JP drain. The JP drain they pulled while still in the hospital. This one is in my old stomach and pulls and hurts all the time. I am freaked out about them pulling it but know I will be so happy to have it gone.

Mine wasn't painful either more shocking. I didn't know it was that deep inside I was always scared I would pull it out by accident. Lol it was a trippy feeling. Lol

      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...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        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.

      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.

        I'm so sorry. I lost my pup (Mr. Bitters - a chocolate Pomeranian) 2 years ago and it still makes me tear up. He was my everything - my constant companion. I understand. Do the best you can to get back on track.
