I am reading more about post-op here, from the web and from my dr. and finding that even months after surgery...if I'm not eating (taking 30 min to an hour to eat my 4 oz.), I will be sipping something trying to get down the necessary amount of fluid, counting protein and calories. This time consuming, right? Something I can compulsively focus on, rather then compulsively eating, eh?
At least compulsively for a while. Does it become a normal thing to do?
Another question is...
I have heard that some people have a really rough time for the first 2 ro 3 weeks after surgery... wanting to cry and feeling horribly deprived, like overeating withdrawls, did anyone have that? If you did, what did you do to help yourself?
Ok, sorry for all the questions. I am pouring myself into the process, still a bit worried about my upcoming surgery date.
Thanks
Angela
