So..... I am on day 18 post op, in the throes of the PUREE stage and feel like I am:
1. always tired. Can't seem to get quite to 60-80g of Protein..... HAAAAAAATE ALL shakes and powders. They gag me.
2. When I eat (let's say 1 egg with a sprinkle of cheese on them), it first of all..... takes me like 15-20 mins if I do not want to feel pain in my stomach (i can eat refried Beans, but ANY thing like that is sooooooooooooooooooooo heavy on my stomach and makes me feel terrible!!!
3. Wondering if my ability to eat just a WEE bit more will ever come! ( i know I did this for a reason, but I am OVER only being able to eat Soup, broth, SF popsicles, shakes and diet liquids without feeling it feel like a BOULDER in my stomach after one or two bites!!!
4.And to top alllll this off.... i seemed to have stalled ..... grrrrr.....
Just looking for your experiences with this stage, does it get better and am I really crazy??? :***- {
