I have to do the shots afterward. It's not bad. I still have a stash of them from the last time I had to do them lol. Just go to tickerfactory.com and fill out the info, then cut and paste the code into your signature

Hi Dorothy, I am doing well..still sore and very exhausted. BUT I have been trying to rest and walk at the same time - so it gets a little crazy. I am having a hard time keeping liquids down - I can only take 1 sip at a time, which is a welcomed change!! I am NOT hungry at all, I hope this lasts!! :rolleyes:

I tried a Protein shake for the first time today - it was really good (the 2 sips that I had of it, LOL). It was CHIKE brand banana Protein powder - my surgeon's office gave me a ton of samples - half cup of 1% milk, half of a banana, 1 tbs of Peanut Butter and ice, blended until smooth...it was yummy - if only I can finish it! I really don't see how I am going to be able to get 54 grams of Protein in a day on just liquids...I can barely get in 32 ounces of tea, Water and apple juice...

Hopefully it gets better...

OK, off to move around a little more. May 19th-ers please post and let us know how you are doing and what you are drinking..

cheers!:tongue:

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
