    My surgery date is April 23. Today was my first day of liquid diet. I am exhausted! Hoping it gets better after a few days of it. :smile:

    My surgery was also 4/14/14. I can drink water, but not enough. I am so not getting enough protein in for sure but I can't get any more of anything in. I hope that gets better. The gas is still killing me, Gas X strips are my friend for now.

    Congratulations of your surgery. we can do this.

    I had mine in January so I am back on regular food. I will say that the first week after surgery was tough time. Felt like I could not get enough water or liquid.
    The gas was a "pain in the butt" (no pun intended), it was awhile before that bloated feeling went away. Walking sure helped.

    Feel free to add as a friend for support!! (I have already obtained my goal weight)
