Congrats and good luck...you are about to embark on an amazing adventure...one thing I wish I had done was taken a pic of me each week...so I suggest it to you... when you reach a stall or are having a bad time, reflect on how much you have changed already...keep in touch!

Well its been 2 days since surgery and I think so far so good..

It's been tough getting in my fluids and what not. I haven't even had anything to eat yet. I'm on "full fluids" and I've tried Jello, pudding, and boost...they all tasted terrible!

What tips or tricks do you have for getting enough Fluid and stuff in through the day?

Thanks so much!

Sheena :-)

I set a timer on my phone to go off every 3 minutes to remind me to take a sip of liquid. Early on this was the only way I could get close to the intake just to stay hydrated.

To keep me on track and get all my fluids in I stuck to the sample menu (as much as I could). Made sure every hour I got in the alotted amount. It will get easier ;)
