    So Weak!

    My surgery date was 4/3/2013, and I want to start working out but I am so weak and not sure where to begin? Any suggestions would be helpful. I thought about joining Curves but not really sure I want to join a gym, I have workout videos at home but just can't get myself to use them because I am so tired. So now what?
  2. I am 1 1/2 weeks post op and I drink all my protein everyday. The problem is after every protein drink I get a stomache ache and have explosive diahrrea minutes after finishing the drink. I have tried several types of protein, and different brands and it all does the same thing. Whey protein, soy protein, isopure zero, atkins, and more, they all do the same thing. I am waiting to talk to my nut on monday, but i am wondering if anyone else is having this problem and what are you doing about it. Thanks for any information.
  3. Thanks everyone for the advise, I think I am going to concentrate on just getting liquids in for now and get protein in when I can. Today I had a popsicle, 4oz yogurt, and unjury chicken soup and so far I feel pretty good. I have also had about 40 oz of water. So today was a good day. Thanks again everyone!!!
  4. Hello Everyone, I am 4 days post op today!! YAY!! I am having a hard time getting all my protien in and all my water. I am on a full liquid diet for 3 weeks, so yesterday when I got home from the hospital I started the diet my DR. gave me. I can have atkins shakes 3 times a day and then a liqiuid snack twice a day (broth, jello, popsicle,) plus 48oz of water. My problem is the atkins shakes are 11oz and i can't seem to get them down, and when i do i feel sick,(warm, shakie, sweaty). So my question is how does one do this with out getting sick, I try to drink the "meals" over an hour but it is not working. Any advice would be helpful. Maybe the atkins shakes are too rich, maybe I should just be using regular whey powder. I am taking sips of water every 10 min. but the meals are what makes me feel sick. Any help would be apprciated,
