Well I got out of surgery around 12 p.m. and into my room about 1:30 p.m. I was still under the anestisia. About 4 p.m. I got up and walked the hospital floor. I was able to do four laps. Nurses said they only expected me to do one but was happy that I was able to do four laps. Went to bed about 11 p.m. got woke up at 5 a.m. to have blood drawing. I felt pretty good that morning. I was pretty active on day two, I wanted to go home but they wouldn't let me, so I was a little bored. Did alot of walking on day two, i think I did about 30 laps. Had visitors all day. Went to bed about 12 a.m. and woke up at 6:30 a.m. got about 15g of protein at the hospital and drank some water. Got discharged at 11 a.m. and got home about 2:30 p.m. I was a little tired when I got home from the drive. Took a nap for about an hour and then woke up and went for a walk, played cards with my wife. Went to bed had some stomach pains, didn't sleep very good. Woke up at 2 a.m. and then again at 3:30 a.m. Took some pain meds and feel back to sleep and woke up at 6:00 a.m. and had my first BM this morning. i felt so much better after that. For the most part I feel better, little stomach pain and had 30g protein so far and working on getting my water in.

I made it through my 10 days of liquid diet and went to surgery on Monday, April 20 @ 9:45 a.m.

Well it's been three days of liquid and I still can say it sucks, but I just remind myself that the big day is coming and I can't wait.

I started my 10 day liquid diet. Day 1 - The first day was ok. Seemed to be fine for most of the day until about 3:00 p.m. I started to crave for real food. I seem a little aggitated. I am just hungry.

Day 2 - Woke up this morning and felt hungry. Had a protein shake for breakfast and for lunch I had chicken broth. That was pretty good, but got hungry later so I had a SF popsicle. I noticed in the q&a people said they had tomato soup during their liquid diet. Is that ok?
