  1. I am feeling same exact way, plus I can't sleeep, my mouth feels like a dessert when I sleep.
  2. also thank you for the cup I will be buying it.
  3. I was given B12 shots today which was awesome will get another next month, and was prescribed gummy vitamins will pick those up today. She said my Vit a is fine. So turns out they did a biopsy to my stomach and I have a bacteria. My mom had it as well must be coming from a developing country so that can be in part why my recovery has been so harsh. I can eat pureed and stuff like chicken salad at this point. Dairy and I aren't great friends right now. I got some silken tofu so will try to make that today. And yes I am dehydrated but I try to constantly drink water is just the eating is so slow then I have to wait for the 30-minute intervals.
  4. I went to the ER on friday was extremely dehydrated and potassium super low. But there no short comings that happen for a reason. I was changed prescription and given naseau medicine. Now I am actually eating tiny tiny amounts, but starting to feel human and not so weak. My energy is going up, and want to start taking vitamins now specially B12, D, and A which I am low. Which do you recommend? This is my routine right now. Wake up at 5 am or 6 am: feeling super thirsty I decided to eat first so I don't have to wait the thirty minutes. But I think I should drink first. I found I love infused water much better than plain but has to be ice cold. What do you do when Out and about? I was looking at infusing bottles but they don't keep the water cold. I am still figuring out what to eat, really don't like eggs or yogurt right now which sucks. Got some silken tofu let's see what I do with that. And for everyone that has supported in my last posts thank you so much!
  5. I have family support as far as help for kids etc which is huge but I am alone for most of the day, and I just try to get by.
  6. I don't really count but seems like a lot I am constantly thirsty. Maybe I'll start counting I also eat ice
  7. I was actually doing group therapy prior to surgery and that is one of the things that got me prepared for it. I havent done them in these weeks because I haven't felt up to it. Might have to start again, I just didn't expect to feel this way.
  8. So I started on soft foods... and ever since I have been so nauseous like morning sickness lasting all day. TMI after 3 months finally got my period. My body just feels terrible overall feeling weak, so emotional, and tired. I am trying to be active but when I walk and such my heart starts to race like crazy. Idk if it is just me everyone I know seems to be doing fine post-surgery, but I've been struggling bad. I don't even care about losing weight at this point I just want to feel better. Even drinking Water is hard, its like I am regressing rather than progressing. anyone else experience this?
  9. I am trying to find posts and see peoples updates but can't seem to find any. I have its just an adjusting thing and nothing serious. Thank you
  10. I went to the ER (cant even remember but sometime this month) they did a CT scan and turned out normal they did say I had a (Can't remember will ask my partner [spleen])) Doctor said it is harmless. My brain is all clustered. I had the sleeve and honestly I am having so many regrets at this point, I am terrified of food now. At least when I was on liquids I was getting by on water. I have an apt may 1st, and I am in the middle of my college semester and really need to get good grades. I have been doing most of my work online already missed 3 weeks. So will they have to do another surgery for you? I remember the day of my surgery having a heavy feeling in my heart not to do it and here I am really going through it. I really do hope everything turns out well with you.

  12. I can't eat the same things all the time I get bored but I love soups, so looking at broccoli soup, lobster bisque (Panera bread premade)
  13. Hi I am finally 4 weeks out and can do mushy foods what are the best high protein foods? I do not drink protein shakes so I need the maximun amount of protein in my food. Thank you.
  14. Your surgery was two days after mine you are going to make two weeks. I feel the same way I am surviving on water and feeling really weak. I am can't take anything else that's liquid. And to pass water it has to be super cold, otherwise, I can't drink it either.
  15. I am sick of the broth at this point just surviving on water. Waiting for my weeks to pass to start purees.
  16. I will make two weeks tomorrow and still not even on mushy foods which we do but they gave me four weeks liquid and I am miserable. I miss eating food and I am literally just getting by on water, popsicles, I miss having hot stuff. I wish I could go into solid proteins.
  17. Omf thank you feels amazing to not be the only one will stack up on those tomorrow. I have been crying so much I am so frustrated and upset. I did hear about fairlife I cant drive so I have to wait on someone to take me. First thing tomorrow. God bless you!
  18. i am starving and I cant stand the protein shakes. I tried calling the hospitals hotline to no avail. What should I do? Haven't had any protein all day.
  19. Amazing congrats! Now you can live many more years with your boy!
  20. Let me tell you I ordered three boxes of this haha so I have to get rid of it somehow I will try freezing it. Hopefully that does the trick for me.
  21. Thank you I realized this whole thing is a trial an error. I have to keep trying different things until I figure out whats best for me.
