Post-Op Appointment Done!

Saw my surgeon today and he said I am doing great. My cycle is here so my body is holding on to water and that little pesky fact has me still at my pre-surgery weight! Grrr!! I guess that it is better than gaining any weight. He said to continue my liquid diet and move right along to mushies next week. On a funny note, why did I gasp out loud when he took the steri-strips off and I saw the incisions??? I was shocked at the look of them. I mean I know I had these holes cut in me, but it freaked me when I saw them!! LOL!

 

Today was my first day back at work and man I am wiped out!!! I was ready to go at 10 and i got there at 7. I left early to get to my appointment at two.So it will be a early bedtime for me tonight. I also can not express again how great the Body Fortress Protein shots are!! The New Whey has more protein (42 grams) but it is nasty!! Body Fortress has 26 grams and I am again super happy to have found them!! I bought all they had at wal-mart and they are 1.97 each!! Each day for me gets better and better for me and I am excited to be on the path to a new me!

what are you using the Body Fortress Protein shots for?

i saw them at walgreens, but wasnt sure if we should take them?

were you instructed to take them?

sorry lots of questions, today was my surgery and i have no hunger, and i had a hard time getting all my liquids in pre-op. kind of scared of losing muscle mass cause i'm not getting enough protein...

Queen Bea, I am using them along with my shakes to make sure I am getting my protein in. My doc said it was okay to use them. We need the protein to heal and keep the muscle mass up!
