Uh god this liquid acetaminop-codeine is GROSS! Trying to get that down to reduce incision swelling and areas around the main incision. Man is it DISGUSTING!

Hi everyone! could you please add my husband Mike, today is his 1 day of preop liquid diet. In order to support him and motivate him I am doing it too! He will be having the surgery on 8/7. As some of people posts, we are worried a little scare, but he refuses to get insulin so this is the only option. Praying for all of you . That God gives you the strength you need, and hope to here in 6 months the wonderful changes that all of you will be sharing 🤗

guys- quick question! i’m babysitting right now and forgot to bring food, the kids are having pizza for dinner so i ordered italian wedding Soup, do you think that’ll be okay to have or should i just have yogurt? and if it’s okay i need to take out the pastina right?

[Frustr8 7,886]

Yes and mushify it as much as you can. You know it does sound very tasty at 6 pm to me!

@newmebithebypass - I think the overall stress and pressure of this entire process gets to everyone. I didn't even have to do that much in my process but the anxiety over the cost and thinking about the post-op experience certainly got the better of me. And I've already warned my family that I just might be a royal PITA after surgery when all I'm doing is drinking and eating mush. lol

my incisions are so freaking itchy...... send help 😭😭

I have one incision that's very red. I'm just over 4 weeks post op. I called doctors office and they suggested warm compresses. Don't know if that'll help the itches but seems to be helping my situation. Good luck
