Surgery is nothing, they are professional. Just try to walk as much as possible. Also if Water feels heavy try lemonaid or something flavored

I live near Raleigh looking for someone to mall walk work me.

Thanks everyone, like I said I feel over whelmed with fluids. I thought it was to much.

Please I need advice.....
I am about 4 weeks out. I do not see a big weight difference i have lost only including the Fluid gained in hospital 24 lbs, if i drink 80 oz a day and do 60 grams Protein I seem to gain weight. is this normal. I feel my eyeballs are floating. it is so hard to drink so much a day including my Protein drinks and eat 1 been or 1 vegetable a day per say my nutritionist.
If I eat it is 2-3 spoon full of either a bean (for fiber/Protein) mixed California mix for a vegetable or some Greek yogurt. this id what my nutritionist has me doing.
my calories are still under 500 a day.
If i drink the 80 oz of fluid 2-12 oz Protein Drinks I literally feel like i am going to explode by nightfall.
i start drinking at 8 am and stop between 10-11 at night
Any suggestions I am at a loss here. I may lose now 2 lbs a week. I am walking anywhere from 2-4 miles a day and keeping myself busy.
I am 5'2 and at 214.....what is the minimum to drink that i do not feel miserable.

Thanks,great info.

Just do research, my Dr would have said the switch if it wasn't for my diabetes
-
My nutritionists said it was OK, it has less sugar and tastes great

Compassion is something some just do not have, I had my surgery on the 28th. it will get easier. Same with me on the yogurt though. I don't know if you like fresh lemon aid but that feels good on my stomach also.
As for your family, ignore them you have the will power to do this, you can accomplish it with support from others on here.

Looking at walking, talking and general support. Had surgery on Sept. 25, 2015.

Sophie,
some men are this way, was her like this before surgery. Instead of getting yourself upset ponder this.
you are looking nicer, you are losing weight, getting attention. He may of wanted you the way you were. Now stop looking at him getting upset and start thinking of how to make your relationship happier. Unfortunately many of these surgeries can lead to lifestyle changes in both spouses and many times if you do not be careful it can lead to divorce. If you love your husband talk to him, show him a pic of you before and plan a date night.

Day 9 after surgery, fluids and Protein still a problem keeping up with. i am pushing as mush as i can but still hard. See doctor in 2 days
As for Protein I am researching some ready made drinks that are higher in protein and low in sugar.
I like the Premier Protein but it is only sold through costco, Sam's club. that have a reasonable price.
any suggestions.
do not care for real sweet flavor
-
thanks every one

I think mine is from not drinking enough. I am pushing as much as I can tolerate. I'm getting light headed when drinking Protein. But not when drinking fluids.
I know my body has to get used to this.
