Topic: RE: Protein-3 weeks out -Help!!

Hi JoAnn.  The first couple of months everyone has problems getting in their water and protein.  Just keep on sipping and try some of the ideas here.  I lived on Wendy's Chili...think I was addicted to it.  It is good protein and goes down good.  Also taco bell has pinto beans with cheese on them.  You can add sour cream and that is good too. Finally, my best advice at work is I bought a Magic Bullet for my office and it has been the best investment.  I bring a jug of protein to work with me and add some peanut butter (I do chocolate protein) and sometimes a banana.   Also, that Wendy's on the corner will be good for the pizza.   Take care and hang in there it gets easier.  Just try not to eat hard to digest things (like hard boiled eggs).  You are better off with scrambled eggs.  Oh, forgot, Gillian's has wonderful She Crab Soup which is full of good protein...

Hi, I had a hard time getting my protein in also so join the club, LOL.  I made it thru with Wendy's chili pureed.  It looks awful but was to die for.  I am sure homemade would be better for you.  Another trick was to make tuna salad and put the boiled egg in it and get double protein. I am allergic to red dye so I couldn't do most of the drinks.  Just keep sipping tha****er.  I have heard that getting dehydrated is awful.  Another thing that helped me was propel.  The water had that metallic taste but the propel has a taste of its own.

Thanks Becky, I will go tomm.  I know its stupid but I was worried that I would not get any help.  I will take a more positive approach.  I can eat scrambled eggs but not hard boiled, I guess it is too dry.  When do you think I can try some toast?  I have to go back to work on Thursday and trying to figure out what to take, any ideas?  I have access to a ref and microwave, so storage is not an issue, I guess I will make up my shakes and take them with me.   JoAnn

Topic: RE: Have first appt with surgeon

Thats GREAT news Bonnie! How exciting! Hopefully i'll be right behind you.  Makes me with i didn't have to cancel my old psych eval (18th) and reschedule for the 25th. But either way, i'll be right behind you shortly. Did you call Joyce after your 2nd eval or the dr's office? And how soon after you had your 2nd eval did you call? Im trying to figure out if i should wait til he has the report in or just call since hes getting so backed up.

As much as I have tried, I can not seem to get in enough protein, my best day I did 45 grams.  I just cannot eat anymore.  Anyone have any ideas?   I still cant do anything but pureed food.  I am also having problems drinking enough fluids, my best day was 40 oz.  Yesterday I tried a boiled egg big mistake took me over 30 minutes to get over the chest pain.  Help!! JoAnn
