How are all the 18ers doing?

 Day 4 and I am feeling SOOOO much better.

Much better now that I am home, and had a full nights sleep.  I hadn't slept well since Sunday night cuz of the magnisum citrate drink, and then in the hosptial they are bugging you all the time to get vitals and drink and poke you with needles.

I still have really bad cotton mouth, so i'm still sip sip sipping away. 

 Hi! Im doing good... Second day of no pain... I can comfortable lay down, maybe on my side. One of my incisions is a little bit wet....  Not much coming out. Dr appt in 2 days so I'll wait. Bad side: I have gotten a UTI from the catheter, and it sucks!! 
Only thing bothering me: i am a water chugger, and i grab a sports bottle and take a huge gulp then i remember---oh no!!! It hurs but not too much. Other huge issue, i cant seem to get enough protein. Ugh!!! Anyone have this issue? I dont want to be bald.... :-/

Anyone have anymore ideas of blended foods?!?! I am starting to get creative and make my own soups amd stews that i can have... But its getting boring!!!

I have lose a total of 9 lbs in 1 wk... Is that bad?!?!

I'm a water chugger as well. I am never without a bottle of ice-cold water!

I find getting protein in difficult because I need something to mask the flavor. And I hate sugar-free beverages. I was cleared for flavored shakes today so I'm enjoying a not bad at all Unjury Chocolate Splendor on at the moment. 1 scoop = 21g of protein.

Sorry about the UTI - the whole catheter thing blows. I got my period about 3 days after I got home, so that's always fun.

Can you do yogurt? How about some Greek yogurt? I got the Unjury Strawberry which sounds like a great mix-in.
