3 days post op questions?

[RoseyM 2]

My surgery was Tuesday and other than a bit of pain I'm doing pretty well.

I am curious about getting liquids down i see all these people posting about struggling.

Today I got in 50oz of Water, through the day 11oz of protien shake and 2oz of broth with no deal problem. I only did 2oz of protien at a time but didn't really have any trouble with it.

I am just afraid I will already screw it up this early on... was it easy for anyone else to do liquids? I know solids are another story

You can't screw it up with liquids, they just funnel through your pouch. I was able to hit the same goals about the same time you did! So you're right on target! Congrats all around!

Thank u!!! That's kind of how I thought it liquids they go down the same as Water I mean I can tell with the protien this morning I tried to do 3 in a sitting and was like nope. I figure solids is when the measuring becomes super real!

I just got nervous with all the people saying they can't get liquids in hardly!

Remember the leak test? I could see the barium pass immediately through my stomach and into my intestines. I was one of the lucky ones too on being able to get in liquids very easily from the beginning.
