Drains are out Hooray!! I am on soft food for 4 weeks 1 protein shake a day. I am so happy to get those drains out.

Excited seeing doctor this morning. Hope to get the drains removed and move on to purée

CarolineLittle Yep constipation was awful finally semi normal bm yesterday. What a relief! I can drink more water just afraid of stretching my pouch. I am at a stall too, gained 2 lbs. not walking as much as I should. Only 1 mile. See doctor tomorrow hope the drains come out. Anyone else have drains? I had some complications and think that may be why I have them. Also hope doctor moves me to soft food stage

Allison I totally understand!! I haven’t tried pudding as the unsweetened applesauce is more than sweet enough. Finally had a real BM today. Not a green Brussels sprout. I feel so much better!! I am back on miralax as I don’t want to go through that again. The reason I shared the egg custard is it’s loaded with protein not icky sweet and same consistency as pudding

The milk goes in the blender with everything else. If not sweet enough add a little sweetener next time

LindsayT I hear you on the tired. Tried to go for a walk today turned around at 1/4 mile and my butt was still waiting in the driveway.

Sorry my phone is doing it’s own thing As I was saying this journey is individual to each of us. Many are experiencing protein burnout, being waterlogged and other temporary bumps and snags. We are not trying to discourage or scare you, it may not happen to you. If it does it let’s you know, you are not alone, and this too shall pass. Best wishes on your journey and thanks for joining us.

Welcome everyone! As you know this journey is different

I have unflavored protein powder 30 gr protein and clear berry flavored premier protein drink. Considering mixing 1 scoop unflavored with the clear then dividing it between 4 20 oz containers of water to dilute the taste of the berry flavor. That should help meet my liquid and protein goals. If I can handle it
