My surgery was on Monday and by Thursday I can tell it was when I start feel the most normal but everybody is driving me crazy cuz they like I should be in bed. I should be outside.. yesterday I went to a birthday party and they were freak out cuz I went.. so do u think is okey feeling this good or should I be resting ? The other thing is the liquid I think I can drink about 7 to 8 onz of Protein in like 25 to 30 minutes and I don't know if is okey cuz that another thing in my house they think I drink to much of If i say i feel hungry is like .. why u hungry, u shouldn't feel hungry with the surgery.. now I feel bad because I feel good... this is so crazy and sorry but I need to some advice

I had surgery on 7/2 along with a few others. One of the others shared at our check up that she is able to drink 4-6 oz at a sitting and is still hungry. She was told not to do it and that she’s not hungry, it’s in her head and that it happens that way for some patients. Also they were concerned that even though she felt good, she could rupture something inside. I use a timer set to go off every 5 minutes to drink my Water and to make the 2oz meal last. You should talk to your team to make sure you’re not hurting anything.

At a week post-surgery I was told no more than 2 ounces of liquid every 15 minutes. As for activity, I walked a half mile the day after I got out of the hospital and I walked four miles the day after that. It truly depends on how you feel and what your activity level was like pre-surgery. Don't do anything that engages abdominal muscles like crunches or stair running, but I was walking small inclines within days after surgery.

      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...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        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.
