I'm in tears over here. I feel like I'm failing - surgery was 4/18, but I'm not hungry at all, and even trying to drink everything is hurting. I can't stand the powders, they're making me nauseous, even mixed with broth, etc. The pre-mixed Protein shakes hurt me too bad (the dairy). I'm FAR from my water/protein goals & can't stop crying because I just don't know where to go from here. Isopure is disgusting, even tried Syntrax Strawberry/Kiwi this morning mixed with strawberry Vitamin Water Zero, but I can still taste the protein, and it makes me gag every time I sip on it. I know I wouldn't have a problem if I only had to intake water, I can sip on that, decaf tea, Crystal Light, etc all day - but this protein is killing me!

I just feel like a failure, not sure when I should even eat Jello, etc because my stomach is not growling. There is a drink called Protein20 that I recently found at my local QT that is really good, that may be my only option at this point - 15g protein/bottle - tastes WAY better than ISOPURE. Maybe next week will be better, when I can start scrambled eggs, oatmeal, etc.

My stomach has come alive! Doctor has moved me on to week 3 soft foods, and I've managed to have eggs yesterday, and some fish & green Beans today! I'm also finally able to sip my Water all day without it hurting! Down 30 lbs since 4/18 surgery.
