Surgery date 11/16



Recommended Posts

My surgery was 11/16 I was very nauseous after but didn't throw up. I slept most of the afternoon. I woke up at 2am and went for a lap around the ward. At 7am they took me for my leak test. Everything came out fine so I was sent home by noon. I'm not in a lot of pain However it is painful when I drink. I am on clear liquid until Tuesday when I can start adding Protein. broth and Water go down pretty good but Jello and popsicles burn my stomach. I've been pretty active today. Went for a little walk around the block, started a load of laundry and washed dishes. When hubby gets home, we will do two laps around the block.

I had surgery on the same day! My Clear Liquids are for 7 days and I’m already fantasizing about the yoghurt I’m going to have Friday morning. My surgery was at 7:30 and by 9:30 I was back in my room. At noon I went for my first walk around the ward which was tiring but I made it. My Dr requires that you walk every 2 hours for about 10mins. The only thing really bugging me is the pain just above my belly button incision. The pain isn’t on the site, just a bit higher up, I hope that it will pass soon because I want to start walking on the treadmill on Friday.
I also did some laundry yesterday which I pretty much avoid doing, seems like the surgery is turning me into a good partner, lol.

      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...

        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.
