retrieverguy 411 Posted October 20, 2015 Yes but I can have Soups now. I am sick of that sweet tart flavoring that is in all the calorie free Water they sell. On another note I am coming back home off the trail. It beat the hell out of me and I'm a bag of mush today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hear you about the 'sweet tart' flavors; it all seems like kiddie food. Stay tough and win! And yeah, I'm starting to fall in love with my measuring cups. They are my portal into food. -sd Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ragedddy 73 Posted October 21, 2015 Hi all, sounds like most everyone is okay. This has been way harder than I thought. The first week post op intense and hard to swallow anything. The second week have been feeling real weak, weak muscles hardly any strength, trying to walk or bike a couple of miles a day but it is a real struggle. food shakes even Water hard to take in. The last four days I have had intense stomach hunger pains, but when I try to shake or eat something I get really nauseated and have to take the phenergan Also super bad diarrhea. I added potassium,multivitamins and prilosec Saw the surgeon today thinks everything will be okay, just need a little more time and I can add soft foods. I really need to get back to work. Do you think this is all normal. I have lost #16 pounds. My skin is really dry and itchy,did anyone experience this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MOMMAMIN1 80 Posted October 21, 2015 @@abs0253 I use something called Pocket Protein. It comes in two different flavors, strawberry and berry. You just add it to your Water. They are 15 or 20 grams per pouch. Try looking them up, they may even send you a sample or a coupon? pocketprotein.com @@MarciaN -So glad to hear your scan is scheduled.
