Had surgery this morning and everything went fine. I don't have any pain other than gas pain and no narcotics so I don't feel drowsy and itchy. My hospital uses a nerve block during surgery instead of narcotics after. I got bumped up earlier in the day. I think the patient before me must have cheated on their liquid diet and he couldn't get around their liver so he had to not do it. so I got bumped up. Just ice chips so far but will try liquids soon. Thanks everyone!

Hey there! I was wondering how you were doing! I have had to shut off my brain in a way. I want my family to be able to eat normally around me but it is so hard. The shakes they gave me..I loved before surgery. I hate them now..nasty. I struggle to get my 60g of protein in, and I realized I was burning some when urinating...not enough fluids. I think today I did better. I found some sugar free popcyles at Walmart that are tropical flavor and I have been eating those. I found muscle milk with 40 grams of protein and 1 gram of sugar and have been drinking those daily, one of course. Prowerade has some sugar free drinks that are not so bad too...full liquids really bite. I get to start the next phase of cottage cheese and malt o meal the 10th. I can't believe I am excited for malt o meal..
My pain hasn't been too bad. I walk every chance I get. I lose about 1 lb per day. I have good days and bad ones that I feel so exhausted. Taking all my vitamins and watching a lot of retarded shows on tv.
Hopefully your experience has been better. I am alive, I made it through the worst I hope, and I am losing the weight!! So no major complaints here.
I hope you are doing well. I know we were about the same weight, and same surgery date so I am excited to hear your news...even though I think you are about 3 to 4 inches taller than little short me HA!
If you are not doing as well, just know that I am here to listen.
