Hi Lisa, And welcome to VST! I'm happy that you have taken the first step in getting a healthier you! I wish I hadn't waited so long to do it.

That's great that you are keeping things down! The goal is not to eat until you hurt or throw up! That's why measuring is so important. because you won't "feel" anything this early out in you surgery. When you heal a bit more and start dense protein you will feel the restriction! surgery 11-13-12 sw 225 cw 187

Sannah, I have a weird thing about taking pain meds too. But sometimes ( like now ) you need them! Please don't suffer more than you have to. I wish there was something we could do.. We all are pulling for you. Hang in there it just has to get better.

Yeah getting that water is hard, kind of like a full time job! But I will help! The reason I asked about the all protein thing. Was because people that eat a very high protein diet with very little carbs will fall into ketosis. Atkins like diets can cause "keto-breath," its caused when excess ketones in the bloodstream. one chemical component of ketones, the odor is accompanied by a foul taste in the mouth. When the body is in ketosis, urine may also take on a peculiar smell. The body's capacity to store glucose is limited, so when its reserve has been exhausted by fasting, skipping meals or strenuous exercise, it switches into ketosis mode even when you aren't following a ketogenic diet. The presence of ketones in sweat may give it an acrid, ammonia-like odor. Upping your carbs a little bit might help.

So glad you checked in!! You passed out? Before they put you out!! Hehe you could of saved on the anesthesia costs Yes walk walk and then walk again!

I'm getting so frustrated with my private message errors. I'm about to throw a big girl tantrum ( and It ain't pretty) When private messaging with friends it ALWAYS "breaks down" after a few back and forth exchanges. It will not show my new message, instead a "parse error" shows up and asks if I want to report the issue, which I do. I then have to go to my pc and read the message or start a new one.. Please help.

Well dean, it looks like if this doesn't get resolved I might have to start posting my "Pm's" for everyone to see...then I would give it a day of people reading those until I'm banned for life
