Congratulations on your surgery. It will get better. Keep getting those fluids in-remember you can't drink much at a time. Slow sipping is the way to go. I can't stand the protein shakes, either. I definitely can't stand the chocolate ones-goes right through me.

Try to get SF Gatorade or Powerade Zero -it has the electrolytes your body needs and will help. I can drink fat free/skim milk-so that helps me a bit. I used tylenol for any pain and I haven't needed it for a few days now. It used to hurt getting in and out of bed-now it doesn't. But, I can't sleep on my side yet.

Yeah, good thing I picked up samples and not a bunch of anything.

Jan 3rd will be my first post-op visit with my surgeon in which he will up my diet from fluids to the next step.

Right now I could mug for some fat free refried beans.

I am assured things will get better.

Thanks everyone.  Doing better today.  Working on getting down enough liquid, but not stressing.  I know it will come with time.
