Today was another tough day.. woke up this morning, had absolutly ZERO energy.. literally took me a few hours simply just to roll out of bed.. was extremely tough..

 

Tried the ISOPure drink today, the taste was disgusting, however it absolutly filled me up which was a huge benefit..

 

Got to speak to my nut today, she advised I could have string cheese.. let me just say, eating that string cheese was like a party in my mouth, it was so tasty compared to what ive put in my body the last couple days..

 

Had a major migrane for a majority of the day, was able to identify the cause as being from the lack of caffeine.. i suppose when you go from drinking over a liter of soda a day to cold turkey, it has quite the effect on the body..

 

Had the isopure for breakfast, a couple string cheese for lunch, and a chocolate protein shake for dinner.. its 1130 now and my stomach is howling..

 

I know that everyone says things will get better.. I sure hope it does!

I had my surgery on 04/06/2011 and I am having alot of the same issues. ive lost 8.2 pounds in this first week but boy! this is the hardest thing I have ever attempted to do. my constant hiccups and stomach growling has been the worst part. but yesterday i tried waterdowned clam chowder (with permission) and made sure not to get any bits of the clam and felt so much relief. I have gone a week now without my diet dr pepper and thats a victory in itself. I am so looking forward to where this journey will take me. Good luck on yours

Mine was 04/04/2011 and I am feeling great. I got to start soft food yesterday and it is wonderful. I went back to work on the 8th (busy cashier) and started walking 1 1/2 miles a day on the 10th. My energy level is way up and I am down 21 pounds since March 22nd. If you get up and make yourself move and get going you will feel better. I have been going to starbucks and getting a tall skinny late and it is not slowing down my weight lose. It is one of my dairy items for the day! when I get off work in the evening I also have a 40 cal fudgecycle mmmmmmmmm. kinda of keeps the cravings away. We are all going to have down days, but it is what we do about it that matters. Go visit a friend, go walk around the mall, or just get up and move!! Hope things get better, (I know they will) Brenda

Changinmylyfe - thanks for the comments.. ill def have to try the clams chowder thing, that sounds deliceous!.. as far as soda goes, were you told you could have some?? I have been told that under no circumstance am I allowed soda, due to it could cause severe problems. But ive read the boards and a few people claim that there docs have allowed it.. regardless we all know its better off not had, but i wonder what the official word is on that..

Brenda - Thanks for the comments, im glad to hear everything is going well! I am really looking forward to the extra energy myself! Im just so afraid of the vommiting.. soo not lookin forward to that! How have you done with that?
