T'was the night before surgery, and I got my period
I started on the morning of surgery. Luckily my surgeon doesn't use catheters. But they would not let me use a tampon. They put a chucks under me and a huge pad. I got to put a tampon in as soon as I got to my hospital room. I was mortified

Seriously struggling with getting my protein
I personally have to drink two premier protein shakes a day and then that leaves me no room for any food, because I have to drink my water the rest of the day. I have bought unjury unflavored and chicken soup protein, and unflavored soy protein from Kroger, but the texture of it in yogurt or jello just makes it inedable. I cannot stomach bariatric advantage. I was sleeved on the dec 27th also and my dr said to do whatever I had to do to get my protein

Ugh throwing up constantly sick
Hang in there. It's very emotional to go through the physical changes, but remember that your stomach produces a harmony, so it's normal to feel a little psychotic lol

I have had little trouble with liquids. Yesterday I had a whole premier shake with 30 grams of protein and had no trouble holding it down. Today is the first time I really wanted food and I ate two tsp of Greek yogurt. Has anyone else fudged and ate a full liquid yet?
