3 week stall

[bsanders 69]

I expected the 3 week stall but it is still playing mind games on me.. I feel so weak and tired to the point my doctor gave me another week off from work.. So dealing with the stall, feeling weak and no work is kinda messing with me.

How are you doing in getting in all of your Protein and fluids? The sooner you can regularly hit those numbers the sooner you will feel better (based on my experience).

For the stall, there's not a lot you can do other than wait it out. For the fatigue, I found mine got much better once I was onto more solid foods and could get more calories in. What food stage are you in now?

@@bsanders - did you see your doctor or did he just give you another week off? I am asking because I had lost enough weight with pre-op diet and being post-op (around 3 weeks) that my BP was dropping really low and I was on meds for it. Check your BP and make sure you are staying hydrated. If your BP is low contact your doctor!

I'm in the purée stage now.. I'm getting around 70-85 grams of Protein in now, which is a lot better than a few days ago.. Getting around 50 oz of water..

I seen my doctor and he wanted to take an extra week.. Cuz of having the type of job I have..

What kind of purée type Proteins or foods would help me get more energy or what better helped y'all?

I lived for Shelly's Baked Ricotta during my puree phase. It was like eating real food! She also has several other good recipes on this page:
