Two week post-op check

Hello Everyone, Just wanted to report that I had my 2 week post-op check and I lost 21.5 pounds! I don't see the loss but I do feel it. Still trying to get in enough protein and water, but other than that, feeling fine.

HEY WAY TO GO! A BIG CONGRADULATIONS. GLAD TO HEAR YOU ARE DOING SO WELL. KEEP ON KEEPING ON.

Thanks Robin! Love the applause.

Great to hear, Melissa. It is hard, isn't it to get in the fluids and protein? I'm struggling with that too. Hey, what vitamins do you take? I need to find something that is somewhat pleasant tasting....so far, they have all been HORRIBLE! I'm going to ask the board too what they think.

Hi Stephanie, It really is a struggle, especially the protein. I've been taking Flintstones but I might try to crush my regular vitamin and swallow it with some yogurt. I have b12 sublinguals, which are fine, but I did get a b12 shot from Dr. Duncan's office the other day, so that should last for a month. I've been taking Viactiv calcium chews which are good, but I'm not sure if they are the best source of calcium, and I am still looking for some kind of iron to take. I'll check out your post for some better vitamin ideas. Thanks

21.5 pounds that is wonderful, way to go, best of luck on your journey, it will take some time but as far as protein and water, but as time goes by it will get better. Hugs, Melissa
