  1. I'm at 60 grams protein and 64 ozs liquids. Haven't hit any of those goals yet but getting close. :-)
  2. Wow....I'm on liquids and have to hit 60 grams a day..... Dr's are all so different.
  3. Tomato soup sounds so good...did u add protein to it?? If so what kind are you using? I put a scoop of Isopure in my greek yogurt this morning giving me 37grams this moring. Happy with that start!
  4. I'm from Lakeland FL and just had Gastric bypass in Tampa a week ago. It was rough at first but just a week out I feel so much better. Good luck and let us know how you do.
  5. Oh I'm awake all day...2nd day no naps. I just feel full all the time. The thought of drinking anything makes me cringe sometimes. Don't think the liquids stay around long. I potty every 30 mins I think. I gained 19lbs of water weight and have lost 17 of it so far.
  6. @@kamcar616 I break mine up I can't tolerate more than an ounce at a time. Getting all my fluids in has been super hard.
  7. I'm on full liquids till the 11th then I can have puree.
  8. 3/25 here, also had GB. So far so good. Still quiet sore in places but not pain pill worthy. How are you doing?
  9. Oh I can't wait to get some refried beans...lol
  10. I'm a very visual eater I have never tried cottage cheese cause I can't stand the way it looks....lol Not sure I will be able to get over that....
  11. I'm 6 days post op and have extremely sensitive smell. Not nauseous from it, but I will leave a room real quick. Didn't experience it pre op.
  12. Just the word pureed used to make me cringe....now I can't wait!
  13. Ok I'm 6 days out and I smell everything! My dogs, my carpet, my trash can....my fiance came in from work and I had to leave the room! Will this get better??
  14. Had surgery the 25th also...April 11 I get to move to pureed....never thought I'd be excited about pureed foods...lol. My follow up it the 17th. Hoping to go back to work the 20th.
  15. Plenty of pain meds here....80 percocet....guess they thought I was a whimp...lol Still can't get comfortable and today I've been super emotional.
  16. @@valkyrie88 I completely agree with you. I'm day 4 out and still miserable. Can't get all my protein in or fluids. I'm exhausted. And the coughing is the worst!
  17. Surgery was Wednesday and still having lots of abdominal pain. Both gas and incision sites. Walking a lot but can't get comfy when I stop.
  18. I am crushing mine and putting them in warm beef broth.
  19. Day 3 post op and my pain is the tightness in my legs...I came out with a 19lb gain and it seems to all be in my legs. I know it's fluid but how do you get rid of it??
  20. That's awesome. It's raining here so no outside walking but I put in a out a mile and a half at the hospital. Still taking pain meds. Drinking is good. I drank beef broth today and it was yummy.
  21. Yes...headed home within the hour. How are you doing?
  22. Hoping to go home today.
  23. Having major pain issues, not sure I will be going home Friday.
