  1. My doctor said the protein shakes are harsher on the stomach when they are premixed or mixed with milk. He told me to make my own protein shakes with celebrate 4 in 1 with water and not milk to start out with. I dont know if it makes a difference or not because I haven't tried it with milk yet. I am keeping this protien down though. So maybe there's something there, maybe not. Good luck. Hope u find your happy medium.
  2. Surgery went well yesterday. Spent one day in the hospital. I did puke up blood a couple of times but they said that was normal. They had me get up and start walking 4 hours after surgery. The pain was way worse yesterday than today. Today it's still there but it tolerable. Drinking 1 ounce cups every hour. 3 waters and 2 protein with vitamins. Been trying to take super deep breaths. Its suppose to help with the excess gas trapped in body as well as keeping me from getting pneumonia. I dont feel hungry. Haven't had solid food since sunday. I do feel incredibly tired right now but I'm sure that's just my body trying to heal itself. I've only taken 2 pain pills and 2 nausea pills today. Glad it's over with. The anticipation was killing me.
  3. I'm so glad you're doing well after surgery. I heard keeping hydrated would be difficult so I'm hoping to knock out 60 to 80 oz of water a day too. My surgery is at 7am tomorrow morning.
  4. My surgery is in 2 days. Nervous but excited.
