I AM NOW A LOOSER!!!

I HAD MY SURGERY ON WED JUNE 23, I WAS BALE TO GO HOME SAT JUNE 26. I WAS FEELING GOOD ENOUGH TO GO WHEN THEY ASKED TO I GOT DRESSED AND LEFT. WHEN I MADE IT HOME I SWARE W/ IN MIN I STARTED MY MONTHLY ~.~ AND LADIES WE ALL KNOW HOW CRAMPING THOSE CAN BE, SO I AM DEALING W/ A LITTLE EXTRA CRAMPING THAN I REALLY HAVE TO AFTER SURGERY. BUT ALL IS WELL. I WANNA THANK TABITHA H. FOR COMMING TO SEE ME BE FOR SHE LEFT THE HOSPITAL FOR HER OWN PERSONAL REASONS, AND THANKS TO PAULA R. FOR GIVING ME A CALL. THAT WAS SO SWEET OF YOU BOTH. I HOPE WE CAN ALL STAY IN CONTACT FOR EVER. WELL AS I SAID ALL IS GOOD, BUT I AM HAVING A COUPLE CONCERNS, I CANT TELL WHEN IM FULL OR NOT, I MEAN AFTER A FEW BITES OF FOOD I FEEL I COULD TAKE A COUPLE MORE , AND MY POUCH ALWAYS FEELS EMPTY IS THAT NORMAL? I TRY TO EAT SOMETHING SMALL OR A LIQUID PROTEIN SHAKE EVERY 2 HOURS. WELL THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR PRAYERS AND I HOPE ALL GOES WELL W/ EACH AND EVERY ONE OUT THERE. GOD BLESS

Hi ... It was so good to see your post on here... I am sorry to hear that "aunt flo" came to visit... that stinks... I still have a hard time telling if I am hungry or not... I would just eat like 3 to 4 teaspoons every couple of hours until you get familiar with your new little pouch... I wouldnt over do it... Make sure you get your fluids in... that will be hard in the begining too.. You will be learning so much in the next few months about your body... Keep your head up and keep reaching for the stars... FRIENDS FOREVER !!

You will likely be able to tell if you eat too much. Imagine how incredibly uncomfortable eating too much at Thanksgiving was and multiply that by about 10. Not sure where you had your surgery, but if I remember, I could eat about 1/2 a small container of yogurt or about 1/4 of a cup of cottage cheese. I hope that helps. Keep drinking.
