Hello all,
Well today marks the 7th day...One week ago today I left half my tummy at the hospital...lol
Been doing pretty good for the most part but have a couple of questions?
1. Did any of you experience this constant yucky taste in your mouth? - Does it go away. Tic Tacs help me - but gosh its gross.
2. Mid to upper back ache. May be because I am mainly sleeping on my back...but if I am up and doing around the house...here comes the back ache. I've been putting a heating pad on...but man I am really impatient to feel as I did before surgery.
This liquid diet is really starting to get to me for sure. Sometimes at night I just want to gag on those protein shakes..I think I'm tired of drinking everything.
What kinds of things did you all eat during your first 2 weeks post op? Maybe there is something I didn't think of yet. I was thinking today of making Campbells tomato soup? Anyone ever eat that?
So far my menu consists of Dannon Light and Fit Greek Yogurt - sugar free jello - sugar free pudding and popcicles - broth ( I bought Chinese soup broth for 1.00 up the road and Cambells Vegetable Beef Strained broth...but that is about it - well besides the protein shakes.
Do you all think the funny taste in my mouth is from all the sugar free stuff I'm eating? - And maybe I'll go and get some pre-made shakes today maybe in a strawberry or another flavor? All I have is vanilla and chocolate peanut butter.
Suggestions would be great - thanks
