Somehow I've been able to take in enough fluids that when my Dr, called to check on me this afternoon he said I didn't need to be admitted tonight. Thank GOODNESS!!!

I've been averaging around 50oz fluids & 50gms protein which is a HUGE increase from what I was doing on Monday, only 30oz fluids & 15gms protein. 

Good news is that I'm 22lbs down total including my pre-op diet. 12lbs down since surgery. 

I hope things continue to improve, I was given the go ahead to start Phase 2 foods on Monday if I am consistently getting in my fluids.

What wonderful news!  And you'll really enjoy Phase Two after dealing with only liquids!

I was told that getting in enough fluids and proteins was a full time job.  Now that I am almost 2 weeks out,I understand what they are talking about.

 

Keep up the good work and congrats in increasing your fluids and protein.
