I am 8 days post-op and finally starting to get my energy back. The liquid diet (plus Greek yogurt) doesn't give you a lot of energy.
I have found that Gas-x and Colace have been incredibly useful. Most of my pain has been gas pain or pressure.
I also found, instead of plain broth, a jar of flavoring called Better than Bouillon. It has 2 decent flavors that aren't as boring as plain broth. I also found sugar-free popsicles are a nice change of pace every couple of days.
Be kind to yourself and don't overdo it. I got ambitious last week and took 2 1-mile walks and paid for it the next day with absolutely no energy. Now, on day 8, I feel like I have a good feeling of how much my pouch can handle at one time without causing pain or pressure.
One thing that surprised me is that my taste buds have completely changed. I used to love Strawberry Crystal Light. Now it is sickening sweet. So I am drinking just straight water.
If anyone is interested in setting up a support group together, I can create a Facebook group and I have a Professional Zoom account and can host online meetings too.
