How are you feeling?!?!

I'm better today. Yesterday I was miserable. Today I'm having a lot of gas pains. Started liquids today, can honestly say I'm not hungry . How are you? How did you yesterday ?

Today I'm all better. Yesterday was not as great. Pain was manageable (I kept my finger on that button!) My mouth was so dry and my throat was so sore from the breathing tube during surgery. I started liquids today and am tolerating them well. Walking the halls really makes a world of difference in how you feel. It working wonders for me.

How are you doing today with liquids? I'm afraid to eat the jello!

lol. Today I'm much better. I did a lot of walkng and yes it helps. The jello not so bad. Going to try some optifast for lunch. Did you go home yet? I went home yesterday

Yes! I came home as soon as they asked me if I was ready! Being at home and trying to take in liquids and all that is way easier than being at the hospital. Is optifast a protein shake? I tried some protein yesterday, took forever but I want to focus on staying hydrated

Yes its a protein drink. What kind of shakes are you using?

I bought a huge jug from Costco. It's Isopure Whey. I got the vanilla flavor. it tastes like cake batter ice cream to me.

I have to get some of that . How are you feeling? I'm feeling so much better ... whew

I have to get some of that . How are you feeling? I'm feeling so much better ... whew

I've been feeling great! I haven't been overly tired or achy. I walk around a whole lot and try and keep myself busy. I do get a little antsy when I smell good food but then I think of this whole journey and the outcome and it goes away. Haven't really felt hungry. How are you doing? Any real struggles?
