    Hi nancy, thank you for replying. I do feel a little better everyday, I just wanna make sure im.not missing out on the Water & Protein. My doctor stressed the importance of 30ccs of Water every 15 min & to make sure in between im drinking my Protein since protein aids in the healing process. They also gave me the pneumonia shot & ive started my period today so im all over the place lol.

    Hi group. I guess im here because ive been feeling emotional. I was released from the hospital on 8/17 & couldnt do much due to swelling & gas however today (Sunday) I opened my eyes to a fear of.not taking in as much Water & Protein. I cant seem to drink as much as I want/need. Has anyone else gone through this or does anyone have any words of advice? Im nervous about not drinking enough of either water or Protein Shakes.< /p>

    I'm 6 weeks out and it does get better a little each day. I still can't get in all my Water but it's getting better. The Protein - much harder considering those shakes make me gag. Hang in there and try to remember its an entirely new life and it's going to take a while to get used to.
    I was told a few months.

    Yes it gets easier and please don't beat yourself up if you don't get in all your Proteins at first. Just try your best, your stomach is still healing. As time passes you will find yourself able to finish a whole Protein Shake, but that's at about 2-3 weeks. So just keep sipping!

    I was sleeved on the 13th. I just started feeling like myself yesterday. Today I got more fluids and Proteins in than yesterday. It does get better every day.

    It gets easier, I am 10 days out. Everyday I was able to drink more, take baby steps. Took me an hour to get a shake down.

    Concentrate on liquids the 1st week. You don't want to become dehydrated. broth, SF popsicles, Water if you can. If you can't get Protein in right away don't be as concerned. I think I was lucky to get in 200 cals a day that 1st week but did sip liquids when I could.
