getlownurse 105 Posted June 4, 2013 How's it going everyone? I hope you're in no (or little) pain and are feeling good. Get your fluids in! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
prayergirl 55 Posted June 13, 2013 How's everyone doing? We're, what, on day 9. Wow. Time flies. I'm still on full liquids until Tues. Then soft foods til day 30. Then I can introduce regular food, one at a time. I can't believe it takes me 30 min. to eat 1/4 c. of cream of wheat! Never thought that would happen!! Lol! I hope everyone's recovery has been smooth and speedy. I feel very blessed to be on this wonderful journey! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
miss2shine 42 Posted June 13, 2013 Hey ya'll. Just cking in. I went to my dr for a ck up today and am down 19 lbs. Woohoo. I can start on some soft foods and still have to work on getting my fluids in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SexyMama 28 Posted June 13, 2013 Loool tell me about it. It takes me all day to sip on a 12oz shake of Protein. Not sure I'm getting all my liquids in but I seem okay. So what are you having now, bc I've gotten so bored with what having, maybe u can enlighten me! I'm feeling great though.. been going out and taking long walks all over downtown DC with my hubby and little ones.. like 3 to 5 hours and honestly I feel so good ♡ I have my check up on tuesday as well, can't wait :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SexyMama 28 Posted June 13, 2013 That's awesome!!!! I'm down 18 pounds! Yaay.. looking forward to soft food Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
prayergirl 55 Posted June 14, 2013 I'm kinda bored, too. I've been eating cream of wheat, Protein Shakes, greek yogurt (plain)-yuck! Taste like I'm eating sour cream. Lol. I need to try to add something to it! I've also been having Soup a lot. Sounds weird in this SoCal heat wave. But it tastes so good. I just use the emersion blender to make it very smooth. I'm also starting to make smoothies. 1c. soy/almond milk, 1c. frozen fruit, 2 packets of Splenda and a few ice cubes. Blend until smooth. It makes a lot, though. Still not used to the downsized portions! So I just have some and freeze the rest for later. Take it out 1/2hour or so before you want it. Hope it helps. Best of luck to you!
