Hi Chris,glad your surgery went well also thanks for answers about post op diet keep us posted on how you are doing.I can't wait to be on the other side day 3 of the shakes.any ideas on how to make the shakes go down easy haha.
my surgery went well I had a hernia that I didn't knew I had so he fixed that to so a 2 for 1 deal but I'm a little soar. nice to be home in my own bed slept on the couch sitting up because could not get comfortable laying down but past the rest of the gas today so it doesn't hurt that much now had dry heaves that wasn't good it to is gone now. it's nice able to drink more then shakes now and the time should go by fast I can't wait to get the staples out so I can finish healing. only got to talk to Dr B for a minute the next day when he told me I could go home and it's nice they don't try to rush you out the door they wait to you are ready. you should get a pain medcation to help for the drive home it was very bumpy ride and I was very soar when I got home but they give you some good pain pills to take when you get home and it helps. 
Hi Chris,
I've been thinking about you these past few days and am happy to see you're up and posting. I hope your surgery went well and you're recovering nicely. How nice is it to have the surgery behind you and moving forward?! You'll feel even better still again once you get your staples out. Congratulations!
Cindy

hi tookayo
I got out of the hospital yesterday and was only to drink a little water today I'm allowed half cup of juice water or gatoraid and chicken or beef broth 6 times a day with 3 cups of water in between my meals for a couple of days then I move onto clear liquids for like cream soup that is really watery to april 25 then onto puree food for 2 weeks I go back to see DR B to get my staples out on the april 29 and meet with monique again and the dietion for a meal diet Ideas for after.
I was wondering what the diet is after surgery and what the different stages are.Thanks.

It is an amazing journey, great to be on the "Loser" bench all of us together supporting each other

The "Diet" is to shrink you liver for surgery so not so much in the way what my doctor told me, as long as you stick to it you shouldn't have any problems. Good luck! :)
