  7. The foam vomit is the worst! Gross! Thanks for the papaya enzyme tip. I will be buying some ASAP. Wendy's chili is great for me. I've also discovered Fage yogurt which has 28 g of protein per cup. I got it at Walmart. SD:1/28/13 HW:358 DOS:338 CW:310
  8. Surgery on 1/28 and I've lost 28 lbs. Started at 338 and today I'm 310. SD:1/28/13 HW:358 DOS:338 CW:310

  10. Thanks girl! On my way to Walmart to buy some more. SD:1/28/13 HW:358 DOS:338 CW:310
  11. Make sure you know what type of surgery you're getting. Open vs laparascopic. And what kinds of issues your surgeon come across to make him switch the surgery from lap to open. The plan was for mine to be done laparascopically but once he made 3 incisions he found it could not be done and did it openly. I wasn't even aware that this could happen and when I discovered it the next day I was shocked and upset. SD:1/28/13 HW:358 DOS:338 CW:310
  12. Thx. I know it will get better. I didn't expect it to be so hard tho. SD:1/28/13 HW:358 DOS:338 CW:310
  13. It was no sugar added. My husband bought me a protein shake (core power chocolate) I never had it before and I liked it. So today was the 1st day I drank a whole protein shake. SD:1/28/13 HW:358 DOS:338 CW:310
  14. U give me hope. I'm so exhausted and have no energy at all. And you go girl! SD:1/28/13 HW:358 DOS:338 CW:310
  15. I haven't dumped on it. SD:1/28/13 HW:358 DOS:338 CW:310
  16. Our dads think alike. My dad just bought me one a few days ago. I use it mainly for fruit smoothies. Some frozen strawberries, mango (any fruit) a little Splenda, a splash of Water and a scoop of Protein powder. I also make milkshake kinds with ice, sf hit chocolate mix and a scoop of Protein Powder. U can add banana or Peanut Butter too. SD:1/28/13 HW:358 DOS:338 CW:310
  17. I'm ok now. Having open surgery sucks. The baby had whacked me in the stomach with her bottle and caused a stitch to open on that day. The lesson I learned was to allow your body to heal cuz we as women try to be superheroes and do it all. SD:1/28/13 HW:358 DOS:338 CW:310
  18. I'm 19 days post op. Surgeon said it was ok just don't eat more than 1 a day. SD:1/28/13 HW:358 DOS:338 CW:310
  19. I started using my cpap again do today I woke up with a bit of energy. Walked my dog for a long time because of the Striiv app (u guys should check it out) As soon as I got home my energy disappeared. Everyday I feel so tired and down like I'm dying. I ate some sliced turkey rolled up with 1/2 slice cheese. I got 1/2 of it down and my chest started hurting so I stopped eating. I was so hungry. Then immediately went to sleep so I missed a few hours of obsessively trying to drink ounces of Water to meet requirements. Went for a walk and on the way home started dry heaving and vomiting. Came home, waited an hour, ate 2oz applesauce and dumped again. I'm tired and I'm hungry and feel like crying. Everyday I can't get in enough calories, water or Protein. SD:1/28/13 HW:358 DOS:338 CW:310
  20. Snowing in NC! Wow! Veggie soup sounds good. I dumped off the deli meat earlier so now I'm afraid to eat anything else. Just dumped about 15 mins ago off of applesauce. Not having a good day. SD:1/28/13 HW:358 DOS:338 CW:310
  21. I babysit as well. The first day I babysat which was 8 days post op I went to the er for extreme pain due to lifting the baby (7 month old) but I did have open surgery so take that into consideration. I would not do any heavy lifting early on. SD:1/28/13 HW:358 DOS:338 CW:310
  22. I know how u feel. Since yesterday, I have a knot of pain in my left side. I eat Greek yogurt, Wendy's chili, applesauce and Popsicles. Everything else is a gamble. One day mashed potatoes go down fine but the next day I'll vomit. I'm hungry but at the same time don't have an appetite (that's the best way I can describe it). I'm doing horrible with Protein (only 20g on a good day) sometimes I feel really depressed like about an hour ago me and my husband went for a walk and on the way home I was dry heaving and vomiting. I know it will get better SD:1/28/13 HW:358 DOS:338 CW:310
  23. I love these too SD:1/28/13 HW:358 DOS:338 CW:310
  24. I love those. I have 2 boxes in my freezer. My Fav flavors are strawberry and tangerine. SD:1/28/13 HW:358 DOS:338 CW:310
