Two and a half days post op

Well the taste, Hmmn you need more Fluid, yeah I know, easier said than done, remnant of what you ate,last evening but be optimistic, might be fat starting to melt off. Rinse your mouth with Biotene, see if it helps. I'm 8 weeks out and my act isn't totally right yet. Expecting a call from my Bariatric Hospital's Nutrition Department, still not a perfect recovery for me. Trying to remain optimistic in the midst of life chaos.

But that's the thing.. oh.. ya.. I had one Hershey kiss.. ugh.. also I tried to eat 5 Ritz crackers but spit them out after I chewed them but I guess some of the cracker got down.. just hard to believe the negative effects of that would last so long.. it's almost been a full day since that.

I am 3 days post op. I stayed in the hospital one night. The first two days were tough. I couldn’t keep anything down. Day 3 has been a lot better. I’ve had 1 Premier Protein shake, I premier Protein Water. 10 oz plain water, a cup of ice and 1cup poweraid zero. It feels like it’s taken all day to get that down and I am going to start in my second shake.

Any suggestions for gas pain? Did anyone use an abdominal binder? When walking my stomach is in a lot of pain.

Walking helps
