October Surgery Dates

[Clairpooh 53]

Surgery date - 10/1/2012

Today I am actually feeling the best I've felt since before the surgery. However I am not able to drink liquid Protein shakes, Jello and broth. Luckly my NP has approved for me try yogurt, cottage cheese, and split pea Soup. Yogurt and Soup is good how im still scared to try the cottage cheese. Total lost since surgery is 8 pounds. My last weigh-in was on Monday.

I have had a lot of not feeling well, I have been told it gets better with time. With everything your body has to adjust, I'm sure it will get better mine has.

My surgery was 10/1/2012 and I am so weak. My NP to me I need to get my Protein in however last night I tried cottage cheese and woke up with back pains and cramps and all I could do was cry. I want to get my required protein in so bad but i can't tolerate Protein Drinks anymore. Everyone says it gets easier but, WHEN? This is hell for me.

I'm so sorry, I wish I could say that it gets better but my surgery was after yours. Have you tried powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury? I will be thinking of you and hope you feel better soon!

Have you told your doc about this? You shouldn't be in that much pain all the time....maybe your stoma is to small or something happened. Better to check than be sorry....I still have pains when drinking if I get a little air or too much at once, it's so hard to push through and drink but you gave to, don't feel like a failure if your not getting all of your protein yet, it takes time. Just get as much in as you can and I found that cottage cheese was not for me. Try mixing your Protein powder in some unsweetened applesauce....it might help. I had my surgery 9/25 and it has gotten much better but I still struggle. I'm praying for you and that things get better for you.

Did they check your gallbladder again? My friend was having the same problem and come to find out that was the problem.
