Nettyinlacey

Welcome. I am curious to follow your journey.

Well doctor told me go ahead and try when I want to try because I was doing so well and I had a little bit of clam chowder Friday night and I nibbled a little bit on a grilled cheese sandwich and it seem to be OK the rest the weekend as mostly on liquids and protein drink until today when I had some tuna patties and fried potatoes and it did not go well at all so tomorrow I am back on my protein shakes and sugar-free Jell-O

That is exactly what my doctor said too. I thought I was doing really good I start eaten a few things like clam chowder and I know Moore did on the grill cheese sandwich tonight I made tuna patties and fried potatoes and I found out solid food is not my friend right now so back to protein drinks good luck everyone

I can’t seem to find my full point either I haven’t been sick but it seems like food goes through me pretty quickly how my going to know when I am truly full?

Yes that is what I am worried about too. Once I start adding in foods, which ones are not going to agree with me. I hope this passes quickly for you.

Went to get my discharge ball out today and down another 4.6 lbs. I am so excited.

I just figured it out. The Ticker you get from your sign in name drop down list.

I am one week post op and feeling like what am I doing wrong this is too good to be true! Had to take my hubby to Walk in clinic today and got on the scale and I am down 12lbs. already. I know this is not the norm but I was very happy. I am going in tomorrow to hopefully get my discharge bag removed. Then hopefully can go back to work. I hope all is going good for the rest of you and I will try to be on as much as possible,

Lol I don’t know what track that is sorry

I had my revision done on 1018 and this is three days post op not been drinking a lot of Crystal light I’m eating sugar free Popsicles and sugar-free Jell-O for the next week and I think I’m feeling pretty good but yeah I get pretty tired also they also have this tube coming out of the side of my stomach for discharge so I’m hoping to get that removed next or this Thursday when I go see my doctor for. Anyway I’m kind a new to this so I’m gonna keep trying to come on and get suggestions in friendships And I wish you all a blessed day

Don't be afraid to tell your Dr. anything. They are there for you. And yes when they give you the fill the test it to see how it travels through. It is a good indication if anything is wrong. But don't worry, I was not the saint I was suppose to be either. Good luck in your Journey I know you will do great.

I thought clear liquids too but my dr. said no! Clear liquids the first24 hrs after surgery and then liquid only. So I would drink protein shake in am but be uncomfortable so went to 1/2 protein drink and crystal light the rest of the time with a small pudding once in a while. Just done with my 1 week post op and down 18.7lbs. You can do this.

I was excited to find out how my one week apt, would go. Best case scenario lost 20lbs worst case scenario gained 5 - 10lbs. Well the envelope says .............. Down 18.7lbs in one week. OMG who is excited????? BUT to all you newbies this is not the norm. And I know this will not last loosing this much in one week but I had to share! Yes get my oatmeal that I have been wanting the last few days.

I realize it is a special event, But you will have other birthdays. Use this day as a day of commitment to yourself that you can change. Still have fun and enjoy your day. Besides the big one is 50 and I am past that one too. lol Good Luck
