Frustrated!!!!
I am just about 6 weeks p/o and have lost 50lbs. I am very frustrated, I am having a hard time with nausea/vomitting. I can not get myself to drink the the protein drinks and the water. I have had a rough time, I wish that I never had the surgery. Halloween I was admitted to the hospital with a Pulmonary Embolis.
Hi Kathy,
Boy do I know how you feel. Read my profile if you get a chance. Nothing went right for me and there were complications galore. I was in bed for the first 6 weeks and didn't care about eating.
Once I started feeling better (and I promise you will) I was able to get up and eat better.
I had a really hard time eating. Never hungry and had to force myself. Never did find a protein drink I didn't get sick on. So, around 7 or 8 weeks I just gulped, (yes gulped) what I could of a canned protein Weiders (35grams of protein) and then held my nose so I wouldn't sense the taste.
Today I am still not sure I would do it again. But I am getting there.
Take heart, as time passes you will be able to eat better, get more in and my gosh, 50 pounds at 6 weeks, girl you are kicking butt!!!!
Hang in there, we are here for you.
Take care,
Kathy
