60&goin4it 931 Posted October 19, 2015 (edited) @60andgoingforit How far out are you now that you are thinking about food Trying to get an idea of when I'll feel like eating after surgery tomorrow It was at least a week before I wanted something beside Protein Drink & broth. I have yet to feel hungry, & always feel like I just ate a big meal (bloated). Its just been in the last couple of days that avocados for some reason has been calling my name! Nothing over whelming because your just not hungry. I'm just wanting some different tastes than the smoothies, you just get bored with it. I'm drinking 2 Unjury shakes with fat free lactose free milk a day & 1 Unjury chicken broth mixed with Water. I alternate my water with propel zereo or Powerade zero to have something different to drink. I hope this helps you some. I know every doctor has a different plan for everyone. Best of luck to you! I think you will do great! For me the surgery was not as bad as I had anticipated & so far its been mainly just uncomfortable. Everyday gets better, I'm finally getting my energy back & wanting to get out! I've been to the store a couple of times, & I walk 5-10min. every hour for 12 hrs. This seemed to help me. I plan on walking today for longer times. Feeling really good!!!! Its 11 days post op. Edited October 19, 2015 by 60&goin4it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dar200 285 Posted October 20, 2015 I posted before that my surgery was Oct 21. Due to an office mistake, I've now been pushed back to Oct 26th. They'd told me Oct 21, but arranged everything for Oct 14, and when I was finally told on Oct 13, I could not suddenly take off work early, etc. Luckily I don't have to wait too much longer. I've now been on the liquid diet 4 weeks as of tomorrow, so still have one more week of it.we will be on the same day now. Just so you know you aren't alone.
