    What have I done?

    I'm 2 weeks weeks after surgery. Still have some pain...it does come an go. I don't feel right yet. I just feel gross. I hate eating anything nothing sounds good. Even shakes I have to choke down. I hope it passes soon I'm real tried of it. Just a gross feeling with the gurgling and I don't think that's helping my problem but I also feel like I have weight in my stomach and that's bugging me too.

    I had my surgery on monday...I'm doing ok but the gas pain has been rough along with tenderness stiffness an be sore. Didn't help matters either damn a nut flow showed up 2 days after sugery either. I was in hospital 3 nights. I just wanted to get gas under control an figured the hospital was the best place to be. For hospital don't take much all I brought was the cloths I walked in with 2 pairs of undies an 2 bras an a sweater...didn't use any of it. I did use my lotion. My phone very Lil an my Kindle I didn't touch. bring toothbrush deodorant. ..i had a sample pack of cond an shampoo that I brought...worked perfect. Also bring pillow for ride home helps a lot with bumps. Good luck to all of you...it's easy but u can do it. ????
  12. I'm freaking out....it's setting in....I'm afraid...nervous...very anxious....bitchy. I'm still going to do this....i know it's the best thing just scared as hell for many reason.

    You u having a hard time getting them down? Just space them out. Very important to get them. I know my doc said the first 2 weeks not to worry about it but all docs r different.

    We must keep in touch...good luck. I'm ready to. Very scared full of emotion as well. ????
  24. Can anyone tell me how much protein in one drink is to much? I'm almost sure my nut said anything over 45 grams of protein is a waste cuz your body can only absorb so much. Has anyone heard that as well??
  25. Hey all ...I'm still waiting for insurance approval but I have been playing around with different shakes. I really like the unjury but I have not tried the unflavored kind. My question is has anyone added that to a drink? Such as suger free lemonade or any kind of drink? I know they offer a strawberry for that but I have not tried. I'm not a big fan of that flavor. I know u have to drink drink drink an get that protein in an was just wondering what I could put the unflavored unjury in.....any thoughts would be great.
