thenewandbestme 81 Posted November 18, 2015 Well I'm finally feeling like a person again. I was finally able to force myself to get the fluids in plus the Protein Shakes. But has anyone else had problems with reg. (Skim milk 90 calories )? I have so I switched to powdered Protein and cashew milk yesterday , but I think I forced myself to drink too much Fluid too fast and was up till 5am cleaning and exercising to get rid if gas pains in my left shoulder and indigestion . Ugh! Never do that again. So I've only sipped 8oz crystal light so far. And about to get on treadmill for about 15 mins then try the Protein powder and cashew unsweetened milk (25 calories ) and take tiny sips super slowy and see how it goes. Wish me luck! And good luck to you all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Abby1114 5 Posted November 18, 2015 It's only been 2 months since my surgery but I remember how very little I could take in initially. It was 2 weeks before I could even get close to meeting my liquid goal. Small tiny sips is the way to go. And I mixed my shakes with coconut Water with pretty good results. It does get better though, I can drink what I think are normal size drinks now and even use a straw (gasp!) so hang in there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mom26 313 Posted November 18, 2015 Try the Silk Unsweetened almond milk or Fairlife milk. They've both been good to me. Though I did have a 1/2 cup of milk last night and wanted to chug it!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I have been around 272 and 268 lately ,that's why I gotta get on the ball my exercise . I had stopped for a while because I was so sick and had this acid reflux crap! Ugh! But I finally found something that actually helps and that's Nexium and instead of once I take it twice a day.
