I am a week out and I am feeling, as if I am going to die! I had a BPD DS. I have to take sips of Water, which is proving to be difficult!

Are some of you able to eat normally yet? Without having this urge to vomit etc?

I got so sad! This is my first week, and it's already up to such a bad start!

I'm 7 days out and I am having a hard time sipping water also. broth is a bit better and I can do an oz or two if yogurt before it gets painful. All I can muster in a day smh

11 months out staying at 1,000 calories a day. Some days (heavy workout) I'll push another 200 calories via a Protein bar.

B - Protein Shake with 1 scoop powder, 1.25c coconut milk and 3/4 c fruit. (Today was mango.) Sometimes I switch up Fairlife Skim for the coconut milk. Today was 25 g protein - add 13 g if I have Fairlife

Morning snack - today was seedles grapes about a cup

lunch - 3.5 ounces left over rib eye steak from last night 26 g protein

Afternoon snack - Oikos Triple Zero yogurt (15 grams)

dinner - 3-5 ounces of whatever protein I cook for the family most nights ballpark 20 G. -- So that's about 86 grams of protein a day. Plus salad or green veggie. Last night was steak, zucchini fritters and mushrooms.

Tonight's dinner (like most Mondays and Wednesdays) will be a protein bar as I have fencing for 2 hours from 7-9 and I don't like to eat before I fence, but by the time I come home, I need to eat something but a meal is not appealing. (Fencing for 2 hours for me is about 1200 calories burned so I burn everything I eat today and wind up with net 0 calories consumed.)

I am 5 weeks out for VGS and I can pretty much drink Water normally (no chugging). I had a eureka moment when I discovered that drinking it out of a glass was much much easier for me than my water bottle or the bottled-water bottle (strange sentence, but I hope clear enough).
