Recommended Posts

Great minds think alike, I've been contiplating the chew/spit method too!

You would give your left boob for Mac and Cheese!?

C'mon Kim, you know that left boob IS mac and cheese! LOL

My swelling must have gone down some today. I ate - scratch that - I drank my usual meals today in less time than it normally takes, and I've been hungry for the first time since surgery. Still on liquids for a week and a half more. You know youre in agony when youre craving a green bean. That's right, just one, doesn't have to be hot, don't need butter.. just a bean.. please?? *drools*

Hey Sus-

Spit/Chew Method is good... although you'll REALLY want to swallow!

LOL on the boob - you're right - it is :-).

Hey - me too on the swelling! Life is good... I'm feeling sooooo much better. Only a week and a half to go for you! I'm jealous! I have to go to Cancun for work and I'm going to have to bring along a freakin blender! Better yet, I'll just stick to Margaritas.

I know you are joking about the margaritas, but I had a small glass of wine at a christmas party and OH MY did I get a major buzz. Alcohol I think I might give up forever. I was afraid to walk across the room in my heels cause I felt like I was going to stagger....I didn't even drink the whole glass.

On the protien shakes...I'm thinking the first couple of weeks after surgery I was drinking like just a couple of oz at time, but like every 2 hours. I don't think I would have EVER been able to drink a whole shake. Get a cute shot glass to drink it out of.

Good luck and Congrats on your surgeries.

Melissa

No whining! I would rather be poked with needles in the eyes and have my fingernails pulled out one by one than have to wear a bathing suit in front of people at work! UGH. And is it just like 1 or 2 people? Heck no - it's about 700 or so :omg: . I leave on the 2nd and return on the 8th. You think anyone would notice if I wore nothing but jeans to the beach? Although I gotta tell ya - I look pretty darn cute in my black bathing suit with the big ole skirt - LOL.

:eek: Margaritas will make it all ok :-). Kidding! Melissa - think anyone would think it was wierd if I wore jeans in the ocean and drank margaritas out of a shotglass? LOL Kidding - it's an idea!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
