May 2024 surgery

Hello,

My surgery is next month. I'm feeling a bit nervous now. I start the liquid diet on May 1st. Any tips, suggestions, or encouragements would be great.

I was so happy to have chicken Soup flavored "shakes" to offset all the sweet stuff (until they started to taste like chemicals after surgery, lol). I was also able to put unflavored Protein Powder in Tomato Soup, and that was so nice! I would do a coffee flavored shake at Breakfast, chicken soup shake for lunch, and Tomato soup for dinner, plus sugar free Jello. It wasn't too bad after the first several days. Mine lasted 2 weeks. Take it easier if you can, and get lots of Fluid and sleep.
