Be careful Hannah Protein helps your body heal. I think it’s the only think consistent across the board.

I don’t get it. I had my 10 day checkup today and asked about scrambled eggs. The dietician said that’s not a possibility until week 4 after surgery. WHAT!!!!

How does anyone else prevent gulping? I get so thirsty then I remember and it’s too late and already hurts. I have no clue how this will work when I start working out.

Oh wow that is quick!

I just want to chew 😫

I want to sooo bad I’m 5 days out and my dr is very strict.
Yogurt
Ricotta
Cottage cheese
Strained cream soup
pudding
And allowable liquids that’s it 😕

I don’t see my dietician until the 19th so my food options r still very limited 😔 what is nsv’s?

I’m looking forward to scramble eggs 🍳!

Everyone has felt they get a say in what I do with and to my body friends coworkers family members especially all the family at my son’s bday party etc. did I tell them all? nope my mom felt the need to call all of our family and let them know. Even though I’m happy I had the surgery, I’m only 4 days out I’m glad I had it but extremely hard without any cheerleaders in my corner. 😢 even though my family has told me how stupid this was and what a waste of money it is I’m greateful they kept my 2 yr for a couple days after surgery so I could heal.

Is anyone else having crazy mood swings? I feel like I did when I was pregnant. Little things make me cry 😭

I have been having blurriness too I thought it might be from the pain killers.

Tuesday the 18th will be a week hope I’m feeling more myself by then

Me too!

Wow! 4 days since surgery and I’ve lost 12.2 lbs I know eventually it will slow down but it feels stepping onto the scale and watching the numbers drop. Really helps fight through the pain.

Head hunger is awful. I don’t think I’m hungry but wanna snack so bad. The mental part is rough

b_co you said ur exercising already and u just had surgery 2 days ago?

The dietician and doctor said all of my meds need to be crushed for the first month after surgery otherwise they wouldn’t break down properly.

I hate having to crush all of my meds

Jendkopp a barium test is where they have u drink an oz of barium then they take xrays to
Make sure the liquid is moving from ur new tummy to ur intestines. However I had quite a bit of swelling and everytime they checked the liquid did not move. No discomfort or nausea. Just took about 2 hrs for it to start moving they said that time would improve.

I’m sorry to hear ur having such a time Irish. 🙁 but ur doing great keep it up I’ll find what works. Philly day 3-5 suck the worst and are the hardest when u make past that I’ll b ok. Had my surgery yesterday 11 pokes total not counting shots. Really bad gas pains. Failed the barium test 4 times. But on my way home yay!!!!!! Sip sip sip walk walk walk
