  1. Ahhh ok thanks for that tip. It was a small bowl very bland with no cheese or red sauce on it. Seemed to be about 4 tablespoons. Didn't eat all of it was atv7:30 so far no problems. Won't do it again. Was kinda yucky without flour tortilla lol
  2. Asked hubby when he goes to taco bell to get me a small bowl of refried beans NO onions NO cheese, and a packet of mild hot sauce. Going to eat a tablespoon of it and have some for tomorrow too
  3. I thought ppl thought the sleeve was a better route to go and not as restricted as the RNY . Hope it is better for you. I am not doing the journal. The nurses gave me copies of a piece paper they fixed for me. And i am supposed to document the ounces i drink but i just cant focus on it and keep up. I know i am to have 60 grams of protein a day. So 1 scoop of my unjury is 21 grams of protein i pour my milk in my shaker cup up to 16 ounces or water. And put 2 scoops of protein in it and it takes me about 3 hours to drink it. I also drink a bottle 16 oz of water in between the shake. Then at night i will have the other scoop in water or milk and that gives me 63 grams of protein. And it gives me about 48 ounces of water fluid. I do have a popsicle a day and SF jello. I think i am doing ok with this. Its very slow going. Just want my strengh back
  4. why not make them into a real shake, they have blue bell no sugar ice cream, when i get up to the store I may try this scoop of the ice cream tablespoon of sugar free chocolate syrup scoop of protein mix cup of milk or water of your choice, I use fat free lactaid what do you think?
  5. I do feel a little bit better today then the past days. I feel i am losing something, could just be my mind. Lol but i dont think i am getting all the protein in. This horrible taste in my mouth makes me nauseated. Even brushing my teeth 3 times a day and my tongue doesnt stop that taste. If i could drink just a little faster i could get this protein down but i sip and sit my cup down sip and put it down. I am getting bored. I can tell you for sure i am not walking like i should but i am going to get on my wii fit today and do the walking thing. If that person on the inside of the game doesnt start making comments lol. Sending prayers to the ones having problems and that your able to overcome the problems and the pain. Good luck
  6. Yes he did mine and Jodi's surgery. Where are you from?
  7. Oh my goodness cream soups start now lol I bought some but thought I couldn't have it till after 2 weeks
  8. Full liquids? I thought all I could have was the protein shakes water and broth!! You mean there are other things I could be trying too? Hell no wonder I am weak
  9. Me and you both. I am craving Mexican food that's all I want. I have already looked up how to fix baked tortilla chips. Already getting stuff for my salsa lol
  10. When do you get on full liquids? Not sure I was suppose too
  11. Ok punish me. I had one of those small packs of low fat cottage cheese with salt and pepper on it. You know the kind that come in a 4 pack. No fruit. And it was good. Almost ate it all but didn't. I chewed it well and then had a SF jello, waiting to drink my water. Lets see how sick i get, hope i will be ok wish me luck
  12. I dont get sick but really need something else. The smell is getting to me
  13. I just made my protein shake with my lactaid milk vanilla and ice. Kinda like a shake. Have the oster blend and go mixer worked quickly and easy. And its good
  14. I am but its more for crunchy things like those hot cheese its . I did have about 4 bites of weight watchers string cheese so far no problem and they were very small and chewed the hell out of it. I want toast or those wheat melba toast lol. But i gotta save up my first meal snack what ever will be my own salsa . And getting those low carb tortillas and baking them in the oven.
  15. Oh wow!! Mine isn't to the thighs I guess. But it's all around the navel above a little and then all the way down the stomach . I have a video on this site that shows it. So very dark purple. Above navel turning the shade of green. But below its still a very dark purple Thanks for letting me know. It was scaring me
  16. I did get the blood thinner shot on my stomach. But I didn't start brusing till 2 days after surgery. It is turning green now in areas just wonder why it's on the part of my stomach that didn't get touched. My insicions are barely bruised
  17. My friends are concern about the huge bruise on my belly. Did anyone else have this huge a bruise too?
