I'm 3 weeks and I feel NORMAL only in the 24hrs..my energy levels are low ... But I've been fighting the flu and gastro (totally unrelated to surgery) and dehydration too... But don't worry everyday is different and everyday you'll increase your capacity slightly ... Chin up - I've lost 15kg in 3 weeks... SO HAPPY!!!

Hey Guys, I was like a hose for 2 days, NUT told me to take imodium...so that stopped ONLY to be replaced with spasms, pain, gas.... today is has settled, but now I can't go....AAAAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH I just wanna be normal... I don't even know what to eat, just drinking hydralyte tabs in Water since this morning - I duno... I'm not in a happy place. Someone tell me where you were at with your diet at 3 weeks and what you had in 1 sitting and how much...

Well I've been travelling fine since the 26/3 op day... but last week I was hit by flu symptoms and they've not stopped, Last week it started with a sore throat, now I've got sinus symptoms, nausea, dizziness, gurgling in my stomach/gut, gas, and diarrhea ....its so hard to eat or drink anything...and I'm feeling worn and tired out....suggestions on how to beat this one??? seeing local doctor tomorrow..

Yeah I had sweet corn crab soup a little over 1st week at a chinese restaurant... Eating too quickly is a BIGGIE!!! and eating ENOUGH are both issues for me... Also POOOPPPPP..... IT CAN GET PRETTY CRAZY... and painful... NUT told me to take Panadiene twice a day to control the fluidity of poop and add fibre (like benefibre) to drinks... I'm going to get fibre tomorrow.. I'M SO OVER Protein shakes its been a week since I touched 1... ERK... but otherwise, happy with my body so far!!! wooooo!!!...

Thanks for keeping me in check xxxoo

Ok!!! Gonna have a virgin Bloody Mary

Hey guys..just when can I take a sip of wine while out with the girls? We have an occasion coming up next week?? And there's a small get together tonight?? Got sleeved 26th march 2013... What do you all think?? It's too late to call nut or doc..

Anyone else loving ice tea too much?? Had the flu for the past 2 days and still fighting it - water doesn't taste as good - as sweet Ice tea!!! So naughty

too much too quickly??? thoughts guys PLEASE!

Hey guys, I'm on free fluids/kinda mushy stage...and I've been having like a broth or creamy Soup with bits of chicken or lamb in it...they are really small bits and I get really full REALLY quick... its working for me because I get to chew a bit, even though its really boiled ... what do you reckon? this stage is KILLING me - I can't speak to the nut - coz she's holidaying in the US.... I feel fine...and really full..

Guys - I started having a small amount of creamy soups - laksa and creamy curry soup ... And O M G .... Poop is like diarrhea - is this dumping? Is it normal? I hate eating at the moment - it's only pleasurable as far as my mouth - after that it's awful - and that's great ... But I'm woundering in I'm alone in this Diarrhea on free fluids? This only started happening after my laksa soup from a restaurant - so outside food ... Food poisoning? On a positive - feeling really light and happy with shrinking body!!!

Ok .... So it's Easter Sunday and I love our local very royal Chinese restaurant ... Anyway all went well with the soup - got someone to order laksa and I had some of the broth from it - FYI I'm on free fluids ... But here's the UH OH moment - I decided to get a pudding after - harmless right? Custard max with boiled or can fruit mixed in? ... WRONG ... I was enjoying the custard and this was pineapple flavour and I in conversation without even THINKING swallowed a almost raw fresh (kind of, it was bearly cooked) piece of pineapple ... It's been about 30mins since I got up running out of the restaurant without an explanation and sat in the car uncomfortable, sweating, crying and stomach spasming and belching .... I'm home now feel the way you do when you've eaten WAY WAY WAY too much on Christmas Day ... Tell me I'm gonna be ok? I rang the hospital and they just said if you start getting SHARP pains call again otherwise it's ok.... HELP

Absolutely drop dead gorgeous.... AND So inspirational...I had my surgery on the 26th, still on Free Fluids and sipping my protein shake...feeling a bit blah..and your pics just gave me a HUGE smile...thank you - you look so beautiful but most of all you look so much YOUNGER....I can't wait to look younger...

Wow, thank you everyone, what a wealth of information, I'm going for a walk now and keeping the Water with me... I can't thank you guys enough for helping me, my eyes are actually welling up typing about it, I'm really really thankful... This is really difficult but really empowering at the same time... Thank you for helping me through this all of you.. Right, I have work to do!!
