Let's give each other the boost and motivation we need to get thru this. Ive gotten in some broth, tea and Water finally. Sorry for tmi but everything is going thru. Since leaving hospital im down 6 lbs. I just wish I felt better, then I could enjoy the 6lb loss. Sending you hugs.

Yea I think day 3 is good most say, I'm sticking to Soup it seems to agree with my new stomach more than Water, I take a few sips here and there...like I said we are going to get through it this is just temporary!!!

I just made Jello pudding, sf and mixed in Protein Powder. Hoping its tasty. Trying new things to get that Protein in. If its tasty, I'll let you know.

I was out and about yesterday I didnt get a chance to get on until now, I think the nausea has passed YAAAYYY, I'm still sipping Soup w/protein and crystal light with Protein which is very nasty so I won't be doing that again, the chicken broth is the only Protein I have been able to tolerate I have my first appointment on tomorrow...I am back to work good thing I sit all day, cuz I would not be here, I don;t have enough leave to stay home, but I am feeling better and the last I looked at the scale I have dropped a total of 17 pounds, I'll take it, I dont see any difference but in my face woo-hoo!! Still a little gassy but the Gas-X takes care of that I can't wait to go home though and climb into my bed I have brought a measuring cup to work so that I can stay on track I feel like I do way better at work than at home because my kids do not give me a break and I often get distracted tending to them and even with another person in the house to assist them they still want "Mom" to do it, ugh...one day at a time I know it will get better and this will all be worth it!!!

Congratulations, that's so awesome! Your doing great. Yes, it's totally a day by day thing. You sound our your adjusting well back into a regular routine. I understand your kids needing help with everything, my kids want to be all over me and it's so hard not to pick them up, but my decision was to make sure I'm always here to pick them up, run, or anything with them.. Keep up the good work, x's!

I share your pain and pray that God helps you through this, I recently lost my mother in January she died of heart disease she had multiple other illnesses high blood pressure, diabetes, GERD, COPD, ulcer and morbidly obese. We both lived care free lives not putting to much thought into being healthy. After all I knew many of plus size women right? But it took my mother's death and not just that but actually reading her extremely thick medical record for my own wake up call. So here I am determined and often reminded of her as I'm often reminded of health and how hers could of improved had she had a surgery like this. But God knows best. Be encouraged your not alone
