  1. I freeze my banana chunks and add them to 8 oz of Lactaid and a scoop of nectar chocolate Truffle and blend it in my mini blender and it comes out thick like a milk shake.
  2. Put Protein Powder in everything you drink and eat.
  3. Yes I have Blue Care Network and I began the whole process June 27, 2012 and I had my surgery March 28, 2013 at U of M. Once you finish your 6 months you may still have to wait to be scheduled for surgery - once I completed my 6 months I had to wait 2 more months.
  4. I don't know mine were always normal before the surgery.
  5. Oh let me tell you I had surgery March 18th 2013 and I was due for my period and it did not come, so by May 18th I had light spotting and then nothing until July 25th. I was soaking through super plus tampons every 1-2 hours I even had to add an overnight pad. This went on for two whole days and now my flow is back to normal. I did some research and apparently when you don't shed the lining it overgrows and builds up and it has to come out some time. I have even read on here where some women have there period continuously for 3 or more weeks after surgery.
  6. I use frozen fruit that way my shakes are thick without adding ice.
  7. Are those protein milkshakes that you are drinking? Because for about two months after surgery I was lactose intolerant, but I'm back to normal now.
  8. I mix mine with milk and sometimes I put it in hot coffee as well as cold coffee. I have tried the Click and the Big Train they taste good also but Big Train has more carbs than nectar.
  9. ShanRN that's not messed up at all! I have shoulder length hair and I was sleeved March 18, 2013 and I am losing hair daily and I usually get in 70 grams of Protein or more.. I try to not let it worry me but it does. Lately my hair has been very tangled after washing it and I can barely comb through it - I am going to get a touch up this Wednesday and If the touch up doesn't help with the tangles I'm thinking that I have two choices - cut it off or braids. I didn't want to cut it because I cut it really short last summer and just grew it out. When I have to detangle it after washing it I lose a handful of hair every time!
  10. I had a hot dog for lunch today! I can eat 1 no bun and I will be 4 months out on July 18th

    Two months for the fresh veggies and I can't eat a big anything.
  12. He is absolutely beautiful!
  13. Hey HeatherRad even when I mix the
  14. The pain meds they gave me made me itch and they gave me Benadryl in the hospital.
  15. It shouldn't, what does your insurance say? Mine said that I should be on a diet that would allow me to lose 1-2 lbs a week.
  16. I was sleeved March 18th and have been taking pills since the second day in the hospital. You can take them if they don't cause you any discomfort.
  17. You can use Lactaid Pills to keep the diarrhea away.
  18. No don't do it! You need time to heal. I felt fine in the hospital but felt sore once I was at home healing. I also discovered that I had become lactose intolerant.
