Maybe try something like THIS from Walmart. I like Flexees brand. It is a little more stretchy and comfortable than Spanx to me.

I would just follow your surgeon's plan and stay hydrated. I don't believe many of us here are triathletes training for a big race so fueling our body is not really necessary. And I would suggest you not try to add your exercise calories back. This is rarely successful.
Good for you for getting active!!

I lift weights with a trainer two to three days a week. I find that on days where I get protein and some carbs in about a half hour before a session, I don't poop out midway through. I usually mix a Premier vanilla shake with powdered peanut butter, half a banana and a few ice cubes, then blend. Very delicious. If I sense my trainer is going to be especially sadistic, I'll grab a half slice of 100 percent whole wheat and smear it with peanut butter, and have that followed by low fat milks. After a workout, I'll often grab some chicken breast, turkey or make a scrambled egg with cheese.
