  1. I only drank water pre-surgery and now it makes me nauseous every time. I struggle to get my liquids every day. I now drink about 50 ounces a day of hot chamomile tea & 20 ounces of water if I can stomach it. My doctor prescribed me cream to put on my wrists to help with nausea. I am very hopeful now having seen a lot of you say this passes :-) -MM

    FOOD FOUL-UPS!

    Btdt. It was a buttered homemade roll. I felt like I ate the sofa. -MM
  3. I'm like skinnygirlwithin. I hiccup one to a half a dozen times randomly when eating. Sometimes after just one bite, sometimes when I'm finished. -MM

    Mfp question

    I Am wondering how you have your mfp goals set up for food. My nut doesn't have a set for mfp so I thought I'd pick y'all's brains :-) I'm talking about calories/carbs/protein, etc. Thanks! -MM
  6. I went out with two other couples and my husband (my husband is the only one who knows). I are slowly and talked a lot and when I was done, I just passed my plate to the waiter while everyone else was chatting away. It's harder with just one person because they can tell. My sister got on me about not eating... It's weird how I now look at what I eat as being a normal portion and everyone else eats a LOT. My advice? Order something like a big mixed salad. Then you can eat the protein bits out, some veggies and move the rest around on your plate while you chat. Then pass your plate to the waiter when he comes to ask how you're doing. If she isn't paying attention, it'll be too late to see how much is left on your plate. -MM

    Insure nutrition

    My doctors office got me the script for the scar cream at my first post op appt. I have like ten flipping bottles of it! I applied for insure nutrition afterwards & was approved. So all I'm getting from them is the protein drinks. - MM
  8. I underestimated the adjustment period. The immediate after surgery sucked so bad. Not being able to drink hardly anything, the reflux, the sliming.... I'm 11 weeks out now and I have a pretty good grasp but most days when I sit down to eat, I still feel like a total newbie. -MM
  9. I make my shakes with 8oz of coconut milk, one scoop of protein powder and a ton of ice. My shake usually ends up being about 28oz. It takes me 2/3 hours to drink it in the morning. -MM

    Insure nutrition

    I don't know what you mean? Like would someone else fill the protein drink script? I don't know any pharmacy that would do that... -MM

    Insure nutrition

    I jut went on the website and filled out the do I qualify info. They faxed a prescription to my dr office and I let my dr office know and asked them to sign it. They sent it back and insure nutrition deals with your insurance. My insurance approved it... -MM

    Fitness tracker

    I ordered the vivofit. I would have loved to have been able to get the fitbit force but since they are recalled I'll wait for their next model and try it out :-) In the meantime, my vivofit will be here Saturday! :-) -MM
