confused

im so confused still im 5 weeks out and im struggling every day i try really hard to drink and im a failure i just cant do it-------im so tierd all the time i cant keep going like this? my heads killing me---i cant eat much my stomach cramps after a few bites of food---i feel like im getting worse every day? i did see dr evanson for my check up and he said the reason my stomach was cramping is my pouch is pissy----i just dont have any energy and i dont know how much longer i can go on like this? i tried some protein drinks dr e gave me and i cant stomach them--im just worried and im so confused --

bless your heart....tell that pissy pouch to knock it off and get with the groove...so sorry to hear you are not feeling well...Hang in there!  Don't give up! Maybe try some ensure..don't know if its sugar free or not...or carnation instant breakfast or slim fast....I don't know...I haven't had surgery yet...but seems like these work for others.

I just drank plain white milk..not all those protien drinks.. it seems you always have to be drinking it but the taste was worth it.. then I started eatting cheese sticks.. I ended up having 5 glasses of milk and 5 cheese sticks a day but I got my protien in ... The tired ness seemed to go away after about 2 months for me.. I had to take naps the first month... the rest was worth it because now I am going so much I dont have time to sit down, lay down or actually enjoy a rest...I am always on the go. IT will get better!! Linda Kay

i will try n drink some milk and eat some cheese--im losing weight i started at 255 im at 206 now--but all these mixed emotions of not feeling well has me concerned and worried i just feel so not good and i want to eat but the pain after a few bites is almost like contractions like having a baby--the dietician suggested i dink 8 ounces of fluid every hour and is that hard it seems to take me 3 hrs to drink 8 ounces of fluid----i keep telling myself everyone says it will get better so, in time im hoping it does because as right now im hating this--

If you want to flavor your milk, I found some sugar-free flavor sticks by Disney at Krogers. Just remember, this is the tough part, and it will get better. We're here for you.
