This morning Irma started off grumpy. So I decided to take it easy on her today. I pack 4oz cottage cheese for breakfast. Babybell cheese for a snack (she LOVES this cheese, it makes Irma so happy) and a 4oz yogurt for lunch. Basically back to full liquids. About an hour after I had my yogurt, I was sitting in my Program Manager's office chatting about some money issues and BAM!! I felt dizzy and nauseated. I excused myself and went strait to the John. Nothing was coming up and I heard the door open. GREAT!!! Pulled myself together and I am drinking my second protien drink now. Still queezy. GRRR

Melissa, Just wanted you to know that I get this feeling if I do not drink enough water. It is extremely easy for us to get dehydrated post op. Are you getting in enough fluids? I hope all works out and you feel better soon. Tammy

I am getting my fluids. But it is so weird, morning time I do feel dehydrated. It is so frustrating. What am I doing wrong?

Good am Melissa, For me its a fluids thing or lack there of. I get really nauseous when there is nothing in my pouch especially early in the am so I tend to sip pretty generously on the fluids all day. Hope you are feeling better darling! Hugs.........

Must have been in the planetary alignment yesterday. I had an apple....normally I do not eat them because I have a tendency to eat them too fast...Jackie and Jeannie can voucher for what happens. Anyways....I ventured into the waters yesterday and it got stuck. Nothing I did got it down. Had to get it up myself (UGH!). Then 3 hours later, i ate some lunch....up it came thanks to the apple from earlier. UGH! I ended up with a protein shake for dinner (at 500pm) and then some coucous with turkey meat at 900pm (normally I don't eat that late, but I burned over 800 calories in class and had just gotten home). So...even at over 2 year out, Oscar still rules (that's Oscar...the Grouchy Pouch - haha).

Yep that is how I feel when I am dehydrated. Now you were out at the picnic & such over the weekend, getting in enough liquids is good but I find that when I am out in the heat I need extra fluids. I also get that feeling when I am exhausted & overtired. Hope you are feeling better soon.

I was not doing to bad with 4oz on my cottage cheese and yogurt being slider foods. The denser stuff it as 2-4 tbspn. At least that was until yesterday, now 2 bites and I am done! I don't even want to eat. Thanks!!
