I use the Special K brand and it has protein in it. They are singles that you can carry anywhere. I found them in the diet food section...like near the special K bars and slimfast.

Strange Question....
angelakay2 replied to courtney333's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I bet this is my problem. I am just so full all the time I only want to drink Water and I still feel thirsty. -
I don't recall hearing anything about it while I was in the hospital so I will say no for me.

I think I will hit the water aerobics when I am released to do so. I'm ready!

Pre Op Diet Starts Tomorrow!
angelakay2 replied to evelynvsg's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
You can do it!!! Don't let the pre-op diet discourage you. It's one of the hardest parts!!! -
THe Phenegren knocked me O-u-t! I couldn't take any other pain meds. Do you have a drain? If it's gas, try walking. I know you don't want to hear that but it really does help. I hope you feel better and this is the hardest part. I thought the exact same thing post-op! I wanted to rewind time but I am 19 days out now and it's sooooo much better!

Tips To Stay Hydrated From Veteran Sleevers?
angelakay2 replied to made2beme's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm glad you posted this! I am eager to see responses. I drink as much as I can and am on the verge of asking my doc for an IV of fluids. I am ALWAYS thirsty and ALWAYS have a bottle of water in my hand. -
You have had an amazing journey! Thank you for sharing! It's very encouraging! -

You must feel wonderful! -
Ladies! I was in your shows less that 3 weeks ago and let me tell you! I was miserable!!! I even considered cancelling because the pre-op was so dang hard. I survived by adding Mio to my water and eating SF jello to trick my brain into thinking I was eating. I even froze it to have "ice cream". No one said this would be easy and how dare the nay-sayers say we took the easy way out! Be proud and be good! It will pay off!!!

Drain Out...feeling Better :)
angelakay2 replied to Looking Ahead's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My pain was almost instantly gone when that stupid drain was taken out!!! -
I know you have heard it before but walk, walk, walk!! I know my neighbors think I am nuts cuz I was out walking at all hours with a robe on and a popsicle in hand!! It does get better but walking is the key!
-
I had my drain removed last week and my doc said I could put a band-aid on it for a few days for the oozing. It's healing up now.

I had 2 bites of a hotdog Friday. I didn't eat the skin and I nibbled those 2 bites down and chewed like I was crazy but it stayed down! I am 18 days post op.

I froze my jello. It was a nice change!
