YEAH I CAN EAT! Energy Question?

For six weeks I have been nauseous, dehydrated, and anemic since the surgery HOWEVER, I think I may have turned a corner. I've kept three meals a day down for THREE DAYS- NO VOMITING!!!! I'm not nauseous all the time and when I am I have a saltine or nauseous meds. It really helps. I also found Eddy's popsicles. I HATE the taste to artificial sweeteners- Eddys is sweeten with fruit juice. YUMMY and helping with dehydration. Yesterday I had Einstein's Bagel Reuben! WOW - I didn't eat the bagel but enjoyed the lean pastrami and cheese that they say is 25 grams of protein. This morning I had a few ounces of fresh fruit (cantaloupe, honey dew and grapes) for breakfast with cheese. I still have a problem telling when I'm full so I try to stop at 4 ounces. Does this sound right for someone 6 weeks out? I've been 212 for three days but I'm content. It makes sense the loss is slowing a bit as I'm finally getting something in my system. Energy is still my big concern. When I walk from my office to the kitchen (maybe 50 feet) I have to sit down and rest. Seems like I should do better by now. Should someone 6 weeks out be able to walk enough to go grocery shopping without being worn out? CORRECTION- Make that 2 weeks out (I was laid up a month with pancretius). Maybe my expectations are too high Thanks, Robin 247/212/130 March 2 RNY

I'm so glad you are getting better! I'm sure the setbacks you had are making your energy recovery slower. If you can continue eating well, that will make a big difference. Walk as much as you can--that will also help build up your endurance. I think you are right. It sounds like you have turned a corner and are now on the right track. Even with all the problems, you will look back and be so glad you did this. Joy -32 lbs
