    I was told not to drink thru a straw, but im not going to chance it. However my waterbottle I use has a big straw, I do drink from that until it gets to a certain level and then i start taking the lid off.

    yes, yes! make sure you walk. You dont want your body to form blood clots. Remember the worst pain is always three days out. Then soon it will be a week out and you will see so many changes. I cant believe Im 5 weeks out. You will do amazing!

    And my nurses never gave me a class lol. She was awesome. On breaks she would come to my room and we would cut up. She also would bring me stuff from home because I was sick of the hospital liquid lol.

    Water intake

    Samantha Ann replied to naturreal's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums

    I can tell you with me, I became dehydrated the first couple of weeks and was misrable. I started drinking more, and taking bigger drinks. I was so concerned about what not to do and it overcame me. Once she starts feeling slightly better, she will see what she can do and cant do. Im still learning what my body lets me eat, and what it doesnt and having to take smaller bites. Its worth it. Tell her to get those fluids in!

    Ha, its ok! I never saw him besides him talking in the class, but its normal. Who see's you in the office? I see Mr. McDreamy hahaha. I stayed in the hospital for two days because I felt more comfortable. The rooms were nice, the first night I had an allergic reaction to the morphine so that was horrible. Other than that everything has been perfect so far!

    How My Family Eats Dinner

    Samantha Ann replied to RiskyGirl21's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions

    Oh, I say do what you're used to doing. I eat with the tv on, with my laptop on netflix.
  12. Samantha Ann
    Possibly you're too restricted? I cant imagine. For me, I havent been able to have any protein shakes, so I started eating before they allowed to get the protein I needed. I am doing well, but there are times that I do have problems. Im not hungry at all, but I make sure I eat through out the day. I have "bigger" meals when my stomach rumbles. Good luck!
