Topic: RE: Hi, guys! How are you all?
Doing well! I don't have the energy I had expected to have by now, but hoping that will change soon. Here in Minnesota it's been ice, snow, and more ice ever since surgery, so am trying to squeeze in time on the treadmill. It's a chore to get food in - never thought in a million years that would be said by me! ha ha

I miss chewing! The sf popsicles are my only "bite" fix. I have cheated and started eating tuna fish mashed with a fork and some mayo. The tuna fish in the little packets is 2.5 ounces with a whopping 16 grams of potein. Since I am regularly missing my protein goal everyday, I had to jump on this. I am already sick of the protein shakes. The Healthwise Amaretto Cappaccino is good if you blend it, otherwise its gloppy, and it is a delicious start to the day if you were a regular coffee drinker before.
I am surprised I still have little stitches poking out? Is it just me? Can he pluck them out? They are getting annoying now that I have started wearing CLOTHES again.
I have an issues with menstral cramps. I bought some liquid adult tylenol, only to find out that it has high fructose corn syrup in it. I heard a rumor that Walmart has a sf brand? Anyone else had any experience with liquid tylenol or have found a sf alternative? I can't keep sipping the tylenol w/codeine left over from prescription; I am tired of dozing off in the middle of conversations!
I've started walking 15 minutes a day on the treadmill at home. Thank God we bought that thing years ago. It's stuck in a basement corner, but it still works and theres no way I'm going to risk falling outside. So my energy level is finally up.
I go for another appt with Dr. I on Thursday, and I will put in my best request for the soft food diet! I think I'm ready.

Topic: RE: Throwing up
I have to say that no, I haven't heard this to be a common problem, unless you are eating too much or too quickly.
Could you have a blockage?
I would try to drink a lot and go back to the liquid diet for a day or 2. if you are still having a problem after that, then I would call your surgeon. If you can't even keep liquids down then you should go to the ER straight away.

Roundy's is the parent company of our Pick N Save Grocery stores here in Wisconsin. I'm not sure where they are all located outside of here.
I found milk mix with the hershey's syrup in our stores.
Hope that helps.

I agree!!! Just because it's now a new month doesn't mean this forum has to close. 
Topic: Throwing up
I had surgery January 5 and have just started throwing up - this morning it was water, this afternoon it was chicken salad and tonight a bariatric pasta made me throw up...........
Anybody else throwing up like this?

water, apple/water, gatorade/water mostly. I just found Fuze as well. Fortunately I can now drink milk again, right out milk was not good to me, but I am a MILK baby so I am so happy.
