Happy 51st Birthday Flowerdrum!

Hey we have something in common...I was banded on 7/10 also. I saw your post on a Newbie introduction and thought I would write. How are you doing so far? I am still having difficulty figuring out what is the correct amount of fluids to have. I am so over fluids too but wish I could feel semi-normal. Either I don't have enough and get this burning pit in my stomach or I drink something too thick and feel like I'm going to explode. I drink a lot of SLIM FAST low carb - but that is leaving a metal taste in my mouth because they are in metal cans. I have tried blenderized cream soups and smoothies but they seem to thick. What are you doing? Sorry if this is too long....I just want to feel connected with someone who is going through the same thing and since we were banded on the same day...I thought I would try it. I live in Clarksville, IN (just north of Louisville, KY ...where they have the Kentucky Derby). Looking forward to hearing from you.
