We need a group for march 2014 gals and girls!

Hey guys! I'm Chelsea, I'm 22, and had gastric bypass on march 3. I'm a nurse, and this surgery is muuch more taxing than I anticipated. So, let's all help each other out with support!

Hey Christina! My first week has been HELL! Sooo nauseated and the pain... Yuck! I saw my nutritionist yesterday and she gave me some tips.

If you have chocolate Protein or vanilla:

Mix chocolate with "PB2" it's dehydrated Peanut Butter at GNC or Vitamin stores. I tried it today- it tastes just like Peanut Butter cups! (Freeze for a fudge pop treat!)

Mix vanilla with a bit of orange extract, and vanilla sugar free pudding and freeze for a dreamsicle!

Oh no! Is it draining yellow/white Fluid? Smell?

Fever? Itching can be normal it means it is healing but super read/ warm to touch/ draining/ pain is not. So definitely get it checked just in case!

(Sorry I'm a nurse)

I've put on m workout clothes for the first time since surgery, gonna go for a walk outside and try to get this weight loss going!
