Well, just got home from surgery on Monday.  I can't believe it actually happened.  All went well.  The only thing that bothered me was the anesthsia and the hard narcotics.  Once that was out of my system, I iwas feeling FAB!!  I stopped taking the dophran (??) very early Tuesday morning.   I am currently on Tylenol with codein and that seems to be doing the trick.  I even did a few things around the house today!!  On the loser's bench and recovering nicely.  I can't believe that only a few sips of broth do the trick. I would have never guessed after that week long liquid diet!!! Anyway, just reporting in.

Also, I wanted to thank everyone for their good wishes!!!!  I wouldn't have done so well without the support of my friends here at OH!!!!    (also posted on lightweights board).

Luv,
Toni

Kudos & Congrats Everyone....I am so excited! I hope to add all of you all as friends! 

I got it at the vitamin store GNC, I mixed it with skim milk and heated it up alil.  It can be mixed with milk or water but when you add it to water you get an extra 8 grams of protein on top of the 22 grams that are in it.

When I had my surgery last week this is what I took. I was in the hospital two days

--pjs (never changed into them)
--chapstick (used alot)
--cell phone (used alot)
--head band (used the entire time)
--lotion (used alot)
--flip flops (used when I did my walking, i don't like to sock booties)

I didn't take my own pillow but I should have.

I have not found anything I like, they are all gross, where did you get yours. I am willing to try anything that is better than what I have. Also what do you mix it with?
