Girl I feel you!! I was so nervous the few days before my surgery. I can help you as much as I can! I had surgery the 6th. After I had surgery, I could only tolerate room temp Water. Cold can make your new stomach cramp. Mine still cramps with really cold liquids. Warm broth is really good too. I had a really hard time with the Protein Shakes and still do. But you gotta get Protein in so try your best to get them down. Eating, you don’t. Lol I have my post op appointment tomorrow and I am still on full liquids aside from cottage cheese. I had to eat it with steroids I had to take due to a complication.
One tip I have is take the pain meds they give you. If you try and be tough you will regret it I promise. Message me if you ever want to talk!
