I would double check with your Dr about eating the meat this early out.  I had to wait until my 4th or 5th week to eat meats and then had to start out with ground meats (blender).  Meats are very dense and take longer to digest.  I still have occasional problems with steak.  Good luck

Hey everyone!! 

I'm 3 weeks out now and for some reason come 5 o'clock  or so I can't eat anything with out feeling totally sick.


I have been doing a 20 ox protein shake in the morning with one scoop, 1/2 cup greek yogurt and 1/4 cup unsweet applesauce and about 8-10 oz of milk. Its great!! Just really happy to be able to get protein in finally. Then for lunch I will have cottage cheese or a small amount of chicken or mashed potatoes, not much more then that. But when I go to eat dinner its like something is blocking my pouch almost. I get very burpy and full after 2 bits. 

I have been able to get some rocottia cheese in but that is about all. 

Is this normal? Should I be calling the doctor?

Its only the second day now but I am getting worried.

 Been thinking about you all day!! Hope all is well!! Can't wait to talk to you when you get home!!!

 I have less than 12 hours to go before I am due at the hospital to have my surgery. I have to be at CMC for 6 am and surgery is at 7:30 am!!! I am so excited to start living again and excited to see what God's plans are for me and my family. 

Debbie,
  so happy for you, I am still purging my closet.  It is so funny how we cling to things that don't fit.  I will admit I am keeping some sweatshirts that are too big, but for sentimental reasons (my mom gave them to me) I will wear shirts underneath them and maybe make them into pillows soon. 

I love the thrift stores, I am constantly shopping them now.  Nothing I buy is full price lol and I can't believe when I can wear a 10 or even the 12's that I wear.  Not sure when I made it to a medium top either,  but they fit and I am so excited. 

I have 4 weddings this year and I just bought an outfit for .99 so happy and can't believe it fits size 10 WOW.

Keep it up Debbie and you will do great!
