  1. So I've been on solid/soft foods now for a while. Have only had one episode of throwing up foam after a run in with 2 bites of a bunless hamburger - the hamburger won. It's weird because I've been able to eat lean ground beef! Maybe the density, fat content, ...? Oh well.. nice to have something to deter me from burgers in general :) Today was the first day in a while I've really felt FATIGUED. I was having so much energy but went to visit my family in Asheville this weekend and forgot to bring the protein shake I usually have in the morning (still usually rely on them to get my full amount of protein). I of course tried to compensate with my intake but should have really just gone ahead and drove the miles to the grocery store and gotten a few bottles. Goes to show how important protein intake is!

    Side note... I've been having "hunger pangs" which I think are just stomach acid. Usually my calcium makes it settle down but lately I've been having it more and more. Currently on 40 of omeprazole... should i ask to up it or just keep on with the current plan?

      You had your surgery two weeks before me, and your doc has you on the Omeprazole still? Are you going to be taking it long term? I ran out about 1 week or so ago and haven't had any issues. The hunger pangs could indeed be the stomach acid...did you call your surgeon/nut yet about the omeprazole

      Well they gave me a 3 month prescription at the hospital. I called to ask what I needed to do since i kept getting those "hunger" pangs and I got a call from my pharmacy that another 3 month prescription was ready...? Do most people just wean off? I missed 3 days of taking is a few weeks ago and the following week was pretty rough. Definitely don't want to be dependent on it as I'm not a big medicine taker...
