OMGOSH... I can not stop laughing!!! You guys are great!!! I love it!!! Laughing so hard I'm in tears & my stomach muscles are hurting. Good ab workout!!! Lmao!!! :-)

Lol snow! I can't even imagine waiting to drink after peanut butter! Thanks for the post, it made my night!

I get really thirsty as well. I hate not being able to drink for 30min after I eat but if I even take a sip before then my stomach hurts horribly! Sometimes I even have to wait more than 30min. However, I have found that if I eat a little bit of no sugar added canned fruit after my Protein it helps a lot.

My doctor also said that to prevent hair loss I need to get all my protein in. I am only 2 weeks out but I am so nervous about loosing my hair too.

Raquel I feel the exact same way & I am only a week and a half post op. It is very hard emotionally! The first week every time I saw food I wanted to cry...it's really pretty sick! I knew I loved food but never knew I was so emotionally attached. My husband has been wonderful though. He has been doing the grocery shopping and making the family meals so that I don't have to. Also, I went back to work this weekend which really helped me keep my mind off it. I find if I'm busy doing something I like I could care less about food. Thank you SO much for your post!!! I feel a little less crazy now. Lol

I had surgery on the 17th and worked a 9&1/2 hr shift on sat and I worked a 9 hr shift today. Only thing was that my feet hurt from standing that long after having over a week off. You'll be fine. Just make sure you bring your water bottle & protein powder to mix up a shake.
