Thanks Barbara,
I just got home from my follow up visit, and it went great. The doc checked the incisions and told me that they are healing perfect. Everyone that had surgery with me that same day went to a room with the nurse for a meeting. She answered all our questions and When I told her I was drinking OJ she said its fine as long as I can take it. The doctor is against protein drinks though. he said he would much rather have me eat some chicken or fish then to drink protein drinks all day. As every day passes I feel much better and better. The nurse advised me that I needed to get a water bottle and take it with me all day, I needed to drink more water since I complained of headaches at night that went away after I drinks water ( duh). she said not to worry about mushy food till after my first week, so that would be this friday I can switch over to mushy food, and just to focus on keeping hydrated. the doc also weighed me and I am down 20lbs since my first weigh in at the office.
