Vsg10.26.17 4 Posted October 31, 2017 None yet. I am still in full liquids though. I still tolerate Premier Protein drinks which I know a lot of people report after surgery they can't do anymore. I am heading back to work tomorrow. I am going to do some part time days and then go back full force on Monday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MBird 298 Posted November 1, 2017 thank you! i am so excited and grateful! did you have any issues with any food? Yes I did, and do. I bet this happens to you, but I hope not. I discovered I dislike some things I used to love. But the dislike has culminated over a period of time. So I would try to eat something like a green olive, which I love, and found it made me feel like crud. Over time I started to dislike green olives. There is a myriad of food like that, that overtime I grew to not like so much. I also have a stricture that is going away. So if I eat or don’t chew well enough, it will try and come back up, it’s effortless for me to get sick. So as long as you eat slow and chew chew chew, you should be A-OK. I’m wishing you more smooth sailing!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TripletDad 17 Posted November 2, 2017 Just had mine done on Monday and was up and walking about 2 hours after surgery. Basically no pain and was able to walk laps around the nurses' station. They said no one does multiple laps their first trip out but I did 3. A lot is in the prep. Meaning; get yourself to a gym and walk on a treadmill or ride a bike. Get a good strong core/legs and follow pre-op diet to the letter. 1 MBird reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Apple203 1,314 Posted November 2, 2017 Great read -- I think the post above about prep may be a factor for y'all. Or just damn good luck :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
