  4. Hey, if there is anyone in the South Los Angeles, CA area who is in the beginning stages of their journey or will be having surgery soon and needs protein shakes, liquids, i have some I would like to give away. I have premier protein shakes in chocolate and vanilla flavors, I have a couple of containers of creamy soups in tomato and butternut squash, I also have Arizona green tea zero and a few bottles of vitamin water zero... if you are interested in any of the items please message me. First come. We can meet up. I overstocked prior to my surgery and would like to share with someone who may need these items. I also have broths as well, chicken, beef, and veggie broths. With love, Jenny

  8. I take Pepcid twice a day and that has helped me much. I also try to avoid any foods I know will cause it to flare up.

  16. The only things I really used were my phone and my sleep apnea machine and underwear. My hospital had toiletries and everything I needed. I only stayed one night. I was in and out of sleep most of my stay when I wasn't walking. You don't need much.

  18. I hate taking crushed pills as well.
  19. I'm on full liquids. So I can have cream soups along with my liquids I add a lol protein powder in them to get the protein in. It's okay. Getting liquids in has been difficult. I am getting my gases out and I pooped today!!! So happy about that. Overall I feel well. The gas x strips help some. I take two at a time. *hugs*

  24. Thank you! That's what I will do. Walk and keep walking.
  25. I was discharged yesterday evening. Now I'm trying to walk around so I can get this gas on out of me. But I feel okay. Just want a healthy and speedy recovery for us both.
