Today, I feel really good. yesterday was a bit of struggle with the gas, but lots of walking and warm broth soup did the job!...I have no appetitite and worried I won'te be able to take in enough protein, just don't have the appetite to drink thick drinks..I have been drinking water even added Kellogs protein water mix to help...well, it has 5 grams of protein and 5 grams of fiber...therefore causing my first BM only 3 days post op...not sure if that is bad or good...i hope my appetitite increases some to want to drink protein shakes...its not that i can't tolerate them, i goes down easily!...i just keep on pushing along!!!

It is amazing what day three is compared to day 2 , we were both done on the 12th and I was wondering what I had gotten myself into yesterday but today feel tonnes better , your doctor lets you drink protein powder now I am not allowed to have that until day 5 , it is weird how everyones doctors have a different set of restrictions for the post op diet as well as the pre op good luck with your journey

I'm glad you are doing better! Every day will get better. Soon you will wake up and run for your first shake! (Ok, maybe not run but look forward to it).

Protein shots might work. Make sure you are taking vitamins, drinking lots of water or fluids and keep walking.

Take care!

For the first few days, my doctor's office told me not to worry about getting in all of the protein but to make sure I kept fluids going in all day .. . keep hydrated. The appetite will come along as your swelling goes down. Best wishes.

      Xbox And Exercise - Kickboxing

      By sharon232 · Posted

      I’ve used my Xbox for exercise games too and it can be pretty motivating, especially on days when I don’t want to leave the house. Kinect games really do make you move, and after a session with kickboxing or dancing, I always feel like I’ve actually gotten a solid workout. The controller-free setup feels way more natural for workouts than anything I tried on the Wii. Zumba is fun but definitely takes a little time to get the moves right. Lately, when I’m not working out, I spend time trading CS2 skins and finding new guides on this link. There’s a lot of interesting tips if you’re into games outside of fitness too.
