Post Op March 2014

I just had my surgery on the 10th and I feel so full under my ribs when I drink, is this normal or gas? I hope we March peeps and other veterans can support each other. This app is a Godsend!

    So something kind of amazing happened today. I asked for 4 weeks off work. My doctors office said start with 4, and we could ask for more if I needed it. MetLife is notorious for only approving 4 week

  • *A non-scale victory shout out* I was walking through my house yesterday in front of my family, with my hands full and my pants fell to my ankles!!!!!! I was so happy/excited I couldn't be embarrassed

Did u get the regular pizza sauce or do they sell lite

I got Ragu pizza sauce in a jar. 4 ounces has 5 carbs and 3 grams of sugar. I only use about an ounce, 4-5 pepperoni and a sprinkling of cheese.

Might have to try that tomorrow sounds good

Ok this is a little off the wall, but going thru my Rachel Ray magazine I found a fork that would be great for all of us losers... It's called a HAPIfork. It vibrates and lights up when you are eating too fast! Tracks your total meal time, time in between meals and more! And they are only $100 each, yes each!! Technology.... Hmmmmm

I've been using the app Eat Slower. It's free and you can set your bite intervals. You can have it vibrate or alarm when it's time for another bite!

I am still on boost shakes and water... I hve no problem with water or sf jello or broth but these boost shakes make my stomach hurt so bad for like an hour! I don't know what to do because they are the only thing I'm cleared to drink with any nutritional value. But they make me sick

Between the weight I lost pre op and the amount I've lost post none of my clothes fit. My ring stopped fitting before surgery and I was super sad because I had just gotten engaged mid October and by end of December I couldn't wear it anymore. It's so beautiful sometimes I go peak at it lol

On our way for our one week follow up. Im excited and hopefully get to expand the food range. Every cream can soup makes me gag. Im only able to keep down to protein shakes and greek yogurt.

Ask about this damn back pain!!! I'm trying to do some outside work and I can't hardly stand it!! Thanks!!

18 days out and I've hit a stall the last 4 days. So frustrating. I'm getting all my protein in, 60g, but I'm having an issue getting 64oz of fluids. I find it hard because of having to sip. Going to try upping my protein intake to see if that helps.

I hit a stall at 15 days out my doctor said the 3rd week usually is the first stall. My stall broke shortly after. Good luck! :)

Becky I hit it around 10 days. Lasted a week, but it finally broke.
