  1. Were you on blood thinners when you left the hospital? Heprin?
  2. That's great you are getting most of your protein . I hear people a month out who still find it a hassle. I hope things are ok with you.I fear a leak as well and I have not even been sleeved yet. It will happen April 12th. Take care of yourself.
  3. Congrats! I have had problems w/my potassium for years I still take six of those huge pills daily. it took a few years to get it up to 4.5 for years even on the pottasium it was 3.0 I had to see all kinds of specialist. Are you taking potassium? I am praying once some of this weight is off I can be slowly taken off some meds. I weight about 253 now started at 271. They won't take me off all at once and I take a beta blocker. So I am a litte nervous with the surgery with some of the meds I am taken. But hey we are on our way. Keep us posted..............
  4. I had to call my NUT because I was not feeling well at all with just this protein. I take iron and pottasium and it is hard on my stomach on top on that I take Tylenol w/codeine for a medical conditon. Se said I should eat an egg in the morning which is great. I just ate one now and I will have one boiled egg every day. I was just to wiped out..I feel better already and it was not a issue of being hungry.
  5. I am on day 4 the firt 3 days were brutal. I was so tried I would sleep till noon which is not me at all. I am feeling a bit better today still tired but wow I never expected this. The good thing is I am not hungry I just hope I can make it till April 12th my big day..We can do it......
