My name is Melinda

After a long process I finally had the 'sleeve' procedure completed on March 18. I had no trouble during or after surgery. I was walking around the nurses station 5 hours after surgery and asking when I could go home! I was home the next day attempting to get my Protein and Water in my system--thinking to myself how can I do this! I am now 10 days post surgery. I can hardly tolerate the Protein shakes and am thankful for chicken broth flavored with lemon grass. I am taking two walks a day and looking forward to the next steps.

I had the procedure done on March 18. I'm feeling good with the exception of hating the protein shakes--having a hard time getting in my protein intake. Looking forward to the next steps...any suggestions on how to get protein without those damn shakes!

Congrats...can't wait for that milestone!
