April Michelle 4 Posted December 6, 2018 My surgery is scheduled for the 18th of December. I seem to only have to be on Clear Liquids on the day before my surgery. But I see my nutritionist again on the 10th. 1 irish_sleever reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
irish_sleever 50 Posted December 6, 2018 Day 6 post op and god im getting sick of the liquid diet on it for three weeks now :@ I think when i get back to solid food ill never have a Soup or broth again.. Hows everyone doing so far? Going to weigh myself tomorrow for first time post op. Doing it every Friday from now on which is my surgery day. Feel like doing it once weekly might be a bit healthier for my mind than doing it sporadically. 2 Sarah M. and kjuno reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know the pain will get better, but right now I do not want to touch any Water or Protein drinks Don't worry about the Protein drinks at the start but make sure you get that Water in anyway how i found just having a glass beside me all the time helped remind me to drink. Add some flavouring to it if it makes it better... As per always though if your worried give your team a call to check in with them. My team fortunately call me daily so i guess im fortunate that way. 1 VSGDavid reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kjuno 53 Posted December 7, 2018 Oh my goodness I’m so sorry to hear some of you are having such a rough time especially Psyched. One of my biggest fears is throwing up. I hope they were able to give you something. I’m 4 days away I was totally fine now freaking out a bit. And VSG David u seemed like you were doing so well before... 2 Psyched and Sarah M. reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We are all here routing for yah Everyone has a different experience I reckon post op but best advice is to sip the Water get moving and avoid the pain killers as much as yah can.
