  1. I'm on day 19 post op and I am definitely not getting in all my protein. I was having trouble with my water but my NUT said I could drink unsweetened iced tea with lemon so I'm able to get my liquids in. I am also getting all my vitamins in and walking just under 2 miles a day. It is definitely a fight to eat, I am full very easily. Good luck, hoping it gets easier.
  2. 12lb plus inches since surgery, 32lbs since pre op.
  3. I was told 30 minutes before and 45 minutes after

  7. The first pic is at my heaviest, the second pic is today. ( surgery 5/20/15) I feel great!!!!
  8. I think u will be fine. I wasn't in pain just a Lil pressure for the first two weeks.
  9. I'm having the same issue. I actually went to my friends house and he made me a peanut butter unjury chocolate shake and I tried the unjury chicken soup, both were pretty good. If u want the recipe, let me know.
  10. Instead of waxing, you should try Nair, less painful.
  11. Today is day 14 post op. I tried the premier shakes and can't get it down. I have looked for the non flavored protein but can't find it.
  12. I need to get protein in and I have tried some but they are making me sick. Any suggestions?
  13. Just tried the cannon lit n fit protein shake, 12 grams of protein, 10 oz bottle, not bad
  14. I'm feeling good. I'm still on full liquids and having a hard time getting the 64oz in. Other than that, I'm getting my vitamins in and some walking. I know I'm probably over dueing it but have been cleaning the house too. I'm down about 30lbs since pre op diet and have seen a change in my body. For the first time in over 30 years I am feeling good about myself. Glad everyone else is doing well, we got this!!!
  15. I am never hungry. I have to force myself to eat and drink daily.
  16. Did u take a before pic? If so take a current pic and put them side by side. Congrats!!
  17. OK question, I'm on day 10 still full liquids. I know I can have tea, but can I have lemon in it?
  18. The Dr said it could have been the placement of the iv, just hope it gets better w/o surgery
  19. I know it sounds crazy, but I like watching the food network. It doesn't bother me at all.
  20. I'm lucky to get one down, lol
  21. In both my hands. The left hand was the main iv, which only has a Lil numbness, not sure why there was an iv in my right hand but it wasn't in as long as my left and my right hand is the worst.
