I go through edamame like nobody's business.

I eat edamame a lot because soybeans have tons of protein and I love salt. Shredded pork with black beans or refried beans. Chicken or steak tacos. I have a lemon pepper bumblebee tuna can for lunch a lot, it's 18 grams of protein and justtheright amount of food. Sometimes I put tortilla chips on a ceramic plate and out cheese, jalapeños, and steak or chicken strips on top and heat into the oven for a few minutes. Then dip it in some guacamole or sour cream. Can't eat a bunch but it tastes amazing. Can't think of much else. I'm having serious trouble getting fluids in. Haaaate the way water goes down, even when flavored with lemon or crystal light or even Koop aid packets. Unfortunately, I only like sugary coffees and teas. I'd really love some fluid advice.

Short shorts!

I didn't go with one doctor solely because the coordinator was unprofessional. That's not an answer to op's question, but is relatable.

From flab, did the donky zebra pic in Mexico too lol. You look amazing, congrats

Salmon steaks. I still like salmon cakes/patties, but salmon fillets aren't doing a thing for me.

Which Ortiz? There are two. I'm into Ortiz who works at mi doctor with alighterme. He did me right, alongside dr Lopez. I'm sure Ariel Ortiz is great as well, but two diff people. Good luck.

No food needed. Laxative- the paperwork says any brand. Idk about Canada, but in the US, you just go to the aisle in the store with laxativs and pick one. You will have no issues with your flight. You take the laxative three days before surgery. You fly the day before. You will not poop yourself.

Mscands, you're to take the laxative three days before. Not the day prior. You should have no issues with the flight.

I don't do the shakes. Hate them. Did one or two but that's it. I try to eat all protein. Tuna, chicken, turkey, beef, eggs.

I'm a month and two days out. Went diving yesterday. Had no problems, but we stayed at about 15 feet most of the time. I did go down in a 30 foot cavern for 5 minutes or so. Had a tad bit of dizziness coming up, but that happened to me several times before. I'm thinking it's more of a diabetes thing. Good to see other divers here. Out of curiosity, where are y'all located? I'm Florida, we have some amazing springs and locations to dive.

Huge difference new mommy! You look amazing.

I didn't follow my pre op diet at all. I also had a harder first few days after surgery than I thought I would. I'm not saying those two are at all related, just throwing it out there. I'm just words on the Internet though. Keep trucking.

Short term- join a boxing gym. Long term- be super crazy fit like the hardcore boxing chicks. Those defined arm muscles, the endurance, the sweat. - also want to kiteboard a ton more but this is contingent on moving to the beach (I'm an hour and a half drive away now)

Gladiator is the only protein drink I can stomach. I like it. I have them out strawberry and kiwi in. It's expensive though, like $5 a pop.
