I was away awile, internet troubles. Im actually in London right now at my mothers so she can take me to Detroit on Wednesday to see my surgeon. My surgery was Oct 21st. I cant get in any protein drinks. I throw up. Ive tried so many different kinds. I dont get all my liquids in either. I try and usually get in about 40 oz. I dont think Ive ever hit 64oz. I can eat a few things now. A few crackers, yogurt, mashed potato, a lil cheese, pork rinds(at least they have a lot of protein), and 1/2 an egg. I used to be able to eat more, like tuna and meat but now I cant. Hopefully they can fix me up so I can feel better. On a good note, aside from being a bit tired, and the possible damage to my muscles, I am down 52 lbs, last I checked, and feel good. My back feels better, no more GERD, and I have an actual jawline, lol. I just read what most of you are eating and I was wowwed. Im really looking forward to eating. Not sure when I can get online again, but Ill try to update. Merry Christmas and a Happy New year to you all!

Keep up the good work! Mine was the 22nd and I'm down about 50#. Sometimes I can eat normally but today the first few bites killed me at lunch and I had to throw up. That's only happened a couple of times. My bad...I ate too fast and too big of bites. Don't worry about others eating heavier foods or more. Just do what you can and it will gradually come back. Hurray for you!

the key I find is eating slow and chewing that food diffacult since I come from the old eat chew twice and swallow lol. I also worked in retail for a long time so used to eating cold food. I have had a tough time with protien I just ordered some unflavred protien. we will see how that goes.
