Swollen stomach

I am 5 days post op.. I mostly drink water... I am to stay on a liquid diet for one week.. So Friday when I go to my check up I am sure they will advance me then. I do drink soup broth, jello, and popsicles.. I have always been a big water drinker so water and I get along.. That is ok right??? To just mainly drink water during the liquid part???

Ann, Yes water is right. Every doctor's different in when they advance us up the stages.I'm having constant bloating and pain in my stomach. Today I could only get down 2 oz. protein pudding,one egg beater and I'm still working on my carnation instant breakfast. I only managed to get in 24 oz. of water. I'm calling the doctor's office in the morning to see if I'm doing something wrong. Your web page is nice. I'm still waiting for from HTML on mine. I noticed that we had surgery one day apart , weigh about the same , and are about the same height. I thought it would be nice to follow each other through our weight loss journey *******************************Rita
