  7. You will be fine I got home from the hospital today. I was also nervous before. My only advice is stay on tract,and force yourself to get up and start walking believe me you'll thank yourself later you will boost your healing process. Any questions please ask that's what all of us are here for we all need support (buddies) to help each other succeed

  10. All I can say is keep up the good job a lot of us here has had some or all of the same problems. Try and move as much as possible it hurts like hell but it also helps blood flow which helps healing. God Bless!
  11. Had surgery on April 3 went a lot better then I expected. Get out of bed and walk the halls . Trust me it will hurt like hell but it jump starts the healing and helps with tha pain.my surgeon was surprised on my recovery . I'm not bragging. I just wanted to pass on something that helped me. The journey has begun!
  12. Thank you! You just brightened my day
  13. Bodyfortress whey protein isolate is 98% lactose free it is the only one I can tolerate. I'm also lactose intolerant so when I found this it made life better I can get enough protein. Also are you taking b-12? You may be low.
  14. This morning I'm sitting here nervous, anxious, excited. My head is spinning trying to remember everything I need to do. How many others have experienced this? Have a wonderful day people!

  17. Thank you! I do plan on trying some water exercises as soon as I can after surgery.
  18. I am having surgery next week and I'm a little concerned since I have severe osteoarthritis in both knees and can hardly walk at times. Does anyone have any helpful suggestions?
  19. It's not as bad as you would think especially after the first couple days.I have been on the liquids for 7 days & I have 9 to go. The protein keeps you feeling full just make sure you don't drink water during or 1/2 hr after it helps

  24. I'm not going to lie it's tuff mostly because of favorite smells. Not hungry it's head hunger just be strong and focus on the prize. Start setting small goals now it'll help later
  25. I have a protein shake, then after around 30 minutes I'll. Have a plain low fat yogurt. You'll be surprised the protein shake will keep. You feeling full.it's helped with the transition to all liquids
