Hey guys. I’ve been all over this website and it’s been helping a lot, but I have some complications I’d like to go over before I see my NUT and nurse practitioner this Tuesday. Originally I thought my new blood pressure meds had been making me feel faint and week, but now I’m thinking it’s a deficiency of either iron or protein or even both. So bad to where I was doing great walking after surgery up until I started feeling like this. Now I hardly do anything besides lay down. I mean I still try to walk around the house or do whatever I can but even standing up I feel faint and have a racing heart. It’s just frustrating. I had my surgery 17 days ago if that helps. But now the more this goes on the less I am eating. Im trying very hard to get in protein but nothing’s cutting it. Eggs were doing well but ever since the other day anything I put down is a struggle. I want to get shakes down because it’s the easiest way but I take a sip now and it comes right up. I think it’s just being on the liquid and soft diet that’s making me like this. Hopefully the more i advance it all comes back into play. I don’t even want carbs or sugars, I just want to be able to sit down and eat some meat or whatever and that’s that. No getting sick or anything. I know that’s a lot to ask for only 17 days out and I CAN wait. But I need to find some way of getting in protein right now. Tuna was another thing I reuse but the mayo and the tuna itself was just uncomfortable to eat. I can’t fathom getting behind anything puréed so this is gonna be tough ? And before anyone says anything about it, please don’t mention puréed food. I just cannot do it. I’ve tried and the second it hits my mouth I gag horribly. The same way I would with the shakes. If anyone has been through the same please tell me it gets better I’m only 20 years old and weighed 375. Now I’m down to 315. I love the results, but I feel so week and sick
