Back to Work
Well. I have started back to work. Since I am the manager at my work I scheduled myself to come back on Tuesday. My first day I didn't do a thing! I just sat and answered the phone and left my other 100 responsibilities sit. I didn't feel guilty at all. Yesterday I was feeling good and worked all day. I normally work 12 hour days but I made it a 10 hour day. When it was time to go home I was dead tired. I am finding that Refried Beans and me are best friends. This morning I decided that I would start with a protein drink instead of a glass of skim milk. Skim milk taste so good to me but I wanted to try to try to get more protein in because I'm not getting all of it. Well. I tried a different kind of protein this morning. What a mistake. I am drinking it at work and within four sips I and I start feeling nasty. I immediately take on of those pills the doctor gave me for nausea. Hmmm it felt like it got stuck. About 10 minutes later I started dry heaving and I felt it move. It took about an hour for it to kick in and for the nausea feeling to leave. Now I feel SOOOO tired. I can hardly keep my eyes open. I'm just grateful my lunch hour is coming up. I am going to take a NAP!
Those protien drinks and me dont do too well.
I love the flavors of all of them but I tried them for several months right after surgery but almost everytime I drank one I had to lay down for 30 minutes then I was ok and ready to go.
One thing that helped me was mixing SF pudding with protien powder I can handle that pretty well.
I have also been trying the ready to drink muscle milk still have a hard time with it but not as bad.
Hope you get to feeling better and it will get better and the energy will carry you through.
