Synixer 14 Posted January 24, 2018 i had my surgery 5 days ago, to be honest there isn't a lot to do at that stage. i just woke up yesterday and started drinking and i did not feel anything of discomfort unless i drank to much at once. i really enjoyed Powerade for some reason. it was the first liquid i could finish a bottle in one day. i had the nasty feeling and hunger pains the first 4 days. i think you just need to rest up and one day you will wake up and the discomfort won't be as much. hang in there buddy! 1 BINABINA25 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Datsweetbabydoll 2 55 Posted January 24, 2018 You need Protein! Protein is what makes you feel full! The rest is wasted calories! If you don’t get enough protein you will have severe Hair loss and muscle loss! It’s very important! I know, I went through it too 😢 Good luck in your journey! 1 1 kiki3252 and BINABINA25 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Losebig 508 Posted January 25, 2018 Get some electrolyte beverages in there like g2 or Powerade, otherwise you’ll end up back in the ER. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
