  1. My doc has me out for six weeks and if I want I have the option of going back to work two weeks earlier. I've already been home two weeks and can't imagine what I'd do if I had to go back to work yesterday. I'm tired all the time & I've had this headache for a few days now and I'm still not eating or drinking enuff. (not from a lack of tring thou) I doubt I'll stay out six weeks but I like having the option to do so if need be.
  2. I'm with u on the headaches so now I'm making a conscious effort to hit my goal for fluids, on top of the headaches I'm always tired. I had my surgury May 7th, 15 days post op today and I've lost about 20 lbs, but I walk a lot. (not since the headaches these last few days) but I think walking helps with the weight loss. Stay positive guys, things will work out.
  3. Noe that I think about it maybe this headache IS from not drinking enuff liquids. 64oz is a lot feel like I'd be sipping more than I eat. I hope I don't have to sip sip sip 4 the rest of my life. Not saying I'd gulp away but man this spping get annoying some times lol
  4. I'm glad to hear that I am not the only 1. 15 days post op as of today and I still get pretty tired. I'm borderline frustrated because I'm not able to really eat anything, and now I seem to keep a low grade headache... I hope that things do you get much better, on the upside of things I've already lost about 20 pounds so I guess at the end of the day it's a pretty fair trade off...
  5. Do you have a Blender Bottle? I bought a large one at Bed' date=' Bath and Beyond, love it. So I ordered more from their website - mixes in seconds! Great idea, just goggled it and they are also available at walmart on my way to get a few myself.... Hopefully I find a Protein supplement soon lol
  6. That sounds doable, I've been doing a lot of fish to make up for not drinking the protien shakes. how long after surgery were u able to follow that diet.
  7. Virtua, in NJ.....
  8. If u don't mind me asking, which one did you like?
  9. Hi, May 7th here, 2weeks post op tomorrow.......
  10. Omg, I can't imagine... Best of luck with everything....
  11. Aaarrrrggghhhh, I was banking on the unflavored unjury. I really need to find a way to get in more protien. I feel weak a lot and I'm almost sure it's from lack of eating/protien... Just started taking gummy Vitamins so hopefully that helps.
  12. That is whatI think is happening to me. My period came on early and my cramps are way worse than normal. I don't know what to take for the PAIN AARRRGGGGHHHHH... I tried children's Tylenol which isn't working...any other liquid suggestions???
  13. Five for me, one right below my bra line (small in size) then I have the one at my navel couple of inches running from my navel toward my breast area, then I have two small incisions to the right and left of my stomach then the incision for my drainage site, all of which are healing nicely ...
