    motherboard got a reaction from nannare in Can't get my protein in..   
    Try GENEPRO. It works great for me. You can add it to anything. It has no taste at all. I add my to my broth. I start Puree foods in a few days and I will add it to all my food as well. I dissolve the tablespoon in about a Tablespoon of Water and then add it to any foods.. It's amazing.

    Thank you guys. As much prepared as I thought I was, I feel lost now. I have to get use to my new tummy. I think the transition from IV to liquids was hard for me. Trying to figure out what I can tolerate. I love this site

    Just got home form the hospital. Had surgery yesterday morning. Today I feel better. I'm having a little pain when I drink broth or Propel Water. The pain only last last a couple seconds. I'm assuming because my new tummy is swollen. I also had a hital hernia repair.
    I get cold sometimes and than I get really hot. I feel my face burning at times.I'm very grateful everything went very well. Baby step to recooperate.
    What did you guys do to figure out how much to drink. How long should it take us to drink 2oz of chicken broth?

    Try sleeping with a wedge. Place a wadge and your pillow on top. You could still sleep on the side but you will be a little elevated. Maybe that will help with the reflex.

    My paperwork was submitted a few days ago. Now just wait, and wait and wait some more. This seems unreal, I started the process months ago and now I'm so close. I remember when I first got the check list of requirements my insurance requested it seemed sooooo long. I was overwhelmed and now it seem sureal. Hopfully I will be in the looser's bench in a few weeks.

    I'm a big coffee drinker. I drink 5 or 6 cups daily easily. Giving up coffee is going to be very hard for me. Some people have comfort food. I find my comfort in coffee. A cup of coffee is magic in a cup. That first sip first thing in the morning of that freshly brewed pipping hot coffee is pure goodness. Yep I have a huge probelm on my hands.

    I got got my blood work back and the Bariatric team says my Vitamin D and B12 are low. They suggested I buy the Vitamin D they sell. Did you guys buy a specific Vitamin brand or a specific milligrams? I still have about 3 months before the surgery.

    I agree. If you have short term take it. I'm taking 6 weeks. I know it sounds a bit much but I have short term and I'm going to take advantage of it. The best place to get better is at home. You will be dealing with a lot of changes both physically and emotionally.
