4 days post op

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!    Just remember to sip and walk.  Everything will come together in time.

Baby YES!

My tip: stay HYDRATED first....dehydration is a ******!!!!!!!!!

You already got good advice. The walking really does help. I had a lil trek upstairs and walked around the hallway and around the bedrooms 12 times lol.

The water is def a truggle too. I used to keep thinking about going back to the hospital for dehydration those horror stories scared me straight. What I did was take out 4 bottles of water. My job for the day was to get them all in. Some days I passed some I didn't, but came close. It worked for me.

Girl, why was the first thing that I did before replying to her was look to see where she was located JUST in case she was close enough for me to "help" her walk that gas off

OH I woulda warned her first.....BL message would have had a subject line----Laverne! And read, if some crazy lady contacts you about walking....run.....do not pass GO.....do not collect $200!!! LMAO

Hey are you Haine's Pointing it again when the weather breaks? I really did enjoy the walks....even though it was at the crack of dawn.

Early out, I swore by Gas X and hot tea....or even just sipping on ho****er.  That really helped with the gas.  To this day, I still start my morning with a hot drink...my stomach won't be right If I don't.

I don't know about you, but I hated the taste of plain water and just couldn't get it all in, until I found these little things.  Very good!

Thanks HD. I tried to order some but the site was tripping. I am going to try again later on today. Thanks again. What is your favorite flavors?

Congratulations to you ,


Im 2 weeks out so i understand the gas pain/pressure issue.  Try mint tea. Its decaffinated so no problem. It really helped to clear up the Gas situation.. trust me! It was a situation...Cuzz if mama aint happy, aint nobody happy.. seriously. It really works....

I was wondering about you.  I'm so glad everything went well.  I wouldn't worry to much about the protein this early out.  Just try to ge****er in.  At 4 days I was getting in about 2-3 cups a day and that was with popsicles.  It was really rouhg for me.  Then all of a sudden I could get more in.  For me, the sippy cups and sippers gave me more gas so I ditched those.   Also walking it off helps a lot.
I'm a month out today and now I get in about 70g of protein and 7 cups of water in.  Oh also your protein might be giving you extra gas.  I discovered that I am extremely lactose intolerant and had to find a low lactose protein shake that i could tolerate.  Even those bullets were giving me gas.  Its really trial and error.

Good luck.  You need anything hit me up.  You're only a 20-30 minute drive from me.
