My surgery is Wednesday and I am so eager to get it over with! I can't wait to start healing and losing! Any last minute advice?
Take a small throw pillow, flat. You hold it against your belly when you get up and down. It helps to do this without pain.
You will do great. get up and walk and sip lots of water.
Remember that the first week is the hardest and it will get a little easier each day. As Greg said, sip, sip, sip, and walk, walk, walk. For me in the beginning warm liquids went down easier. My saving grace was broth and creamed soups made with skim milk. When you have questions, reach out. Good luck and congrats!
