Whatcha eating today VSGers...Monday!!
I'm sorry for your loss.
Today is another post-op full liquid diet. I started out with a double protein shake for 16 oz fluid and 48 grams of protein. I've had a cup of strained French Onion soup, a SF popsicle, and about 4 ounces of water. I never thought I'd love SF popsicles, but they're a nice treat right now!
I will work more on getting my water in for the rest of the day and probably have at least one more cup of soup as the day goes on.
My doc doesn't want me taking vitamins until I finish the first two weeks, so I'm only taking liquid prilosec and injecting lovenox into my tummy.
