I eat it

I think it's the gas!! My clothes are tight and my stomach looks the same. I am not sure if any of you have access to the Vitamin Shoppe but they sell a product called whey Protein and it's in liquid form and it has 42 grams of protein. It is sold in cases of 12 in different flav ours and the cost is $35.00!!!

I am 9 weeks out now and food is not my friend at all! It doesn't matter what I eat, if its solid, it feels like i ate rocks. Ugg

My surgery was 3 days after yours. I was fine in the beginning but not anymore. Did you have problems early on?

Quinoa has Protein in it too. If you've never made it just make sure you rinse it very well before cooking.

My dad lectured me cuz he saw how I ate while in the hospital. I told him I couldn't help it. Nothing tastes good except the fruit plates I ordered. I am having difficult time tolerating food.< /p>

Ok off the subject a little. Do you think you pee as much as you used to? I know alot of us have had the dreaded UTI but sometimes I can go all day and pee once then in the evening maybe 3 or 4 times. Sometimes very little comes out then sometimes it feels normal. I don't have back aches but sometimes I feel some strange weirdest when I pee on both sides of my abdomen kinda up high. No blood. And I had a complete hysterectomy 13 yrs ago. I don't have edema. Just kinda feel like its not normal to pee like I used to and when I think more should come out very little does . All I drink is Water and every few days about a cup of lite cran grape juice. I stopped all the crystal light crap cause I hated that sweet taste. Other then that I feel fine. But so afraid I am hurting either my kidneys or bladder. Because I don't lee much. How about you?

I don't pee much either but I really don't drink much. Maybe 20 ounces a day. I try and try to change this. Somedays I might get 30 but no more then that. I know I am dehydrated because my fingertips are always wrinkled

Whey protein is generalized....what is the specific brand?. Whey is the ingredient.......
