Maureen - The RN in my clinic just made a lot of suggestions for added protein as I progress to puréed foods. (Yay!) 1) Greek yogurt and protein drink added to a fruit smoothie 2) Applesauce with cottage cheese (I had it tonight, heavenly!) 3) Mashed potatoes with chicken breast (puréed for now).
I had my surgery (RNY) on Wed May 20 and came home on Friday. Doing well at home, trying to wean off pain meds, because I'm "too energetic" after taking them (overdoing the laundry and stairs!) Sipping on shakes and Water all day. So far things are going well.
I know a lot of us had late May surgery dates. How are you doing?
Hi!
I've been a lurker here, reading your posts while going through all the prep steps required by insurance. Just got the letter of approval and I can't believe surgery is later this month. I'm so, so, so ready after all this waiting. Felt like it was finally time to post something.
Anyone else with a late May date?
Looking forward to journeying with you! Deb
