Had surgery on Thursday



Recommended Posts

I had surgery on Thursday and came home yesterday evening. I feel way better than I expected, just sore throughout my whole body. My incisions don't hurt much unless I accidentally bump them on something. I ate a few bites of cottage cheese and some pudding last night and it went down with no problem. Still sticking to mostly fluids. My throat is a little sore from anesthesia tube but overall I feel good. Gonna attempt a hot shower shortly hoping it will help with the soreness some. So happy to be finished with the surgery part and ready to move on....

I feel much better than I expected I would. Yesterday was kind of tough with the soreness, but it already fading. I have noticed when I try to eat pudding or something close in consistency I get hiccups. I am assuming that is a sign that I've eaten too fast.

All the best. I had surgery Thursday too, and I am now t able to get 60 oz of liquid down. I do feel a little better each day, but this is tough physically and emotionally. You sound really good, that is inspiring!

Hiccups can be a soft stop signal for some people. I too had to slow down. I still have to slow down eight months out. Stop signals for some people can be: a hiccup, a sigh, a burp. The slower you go the more able you are to notice it. You're doing great!!

      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...

      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.
