What are ya'll doing dir Protein? I tried the carnation instant Breakfast mixed with 1 cup of milk and 2/3 of dry milk makes the drink have 21 grams of protein. My new tummy doesn't like milk!! Trying it tonight with soy milk. Don't know what I'll do if that doesn't work cause the Protein Drink they gave me in the hospital was nasty!!!

I tried the Carnation in the hospital and my stomach rebelled as well. I have no desire for it. I'm still having an issue getting the 64oz of fluids in. :( anything cold and my stomach spasms. How are you guys doing on your liquid intake. Mibe is a sad 10-15 oz

I know I'm not getting the required Water in. My pain is not in my stomach but my chest. Probably should be using the breathing thingy more. Hate it though because it is uncomfortable. Wish I was feeling better by now. Can't believe a lady from another site went back to work already. No way!

Just the breathing thing and walk every hour!! You don't wanna get pneumonia or blood clots. Have you been using the gasx strips? Maybe its gas. The walking will help! I hope you start feeling better

Yes, I sat next to your mom, waiting for my turn. I was the short one with long dark hair. Overall, I was very pleased with the facility & staff. They did try to kick me out after one night, but since I'm self-pay, & they already made me pay for a 2nd night in advance, I stayed a 2nd night.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
