hello all went to the doc today for my first post-opt visit..it has been 6days since surgery..i have lost 10lbs yippie.. no wonder since i cant eat anything..i was scolded for my lack of protein intake..i am trying..i just truly cant get much down..i guess i am one of those ones who has restriction before the fill..well we will see if that last...i feel pretty good and will continue to work on getting enough protein..just thought i would share..thanks..
Congrats on your 10lbs gone forever! That feels good doesn't it?!
I couldn't eat a lot post-op either when I was on full liquids. Wasn't hungry and had to really make myself drink my protein shakes. I didn't start hitting 60g protein minimum everyday until I got to mushies. Now it's easy. But I'm still never too hungry. Hope you have the same good fortune - I'm thankful! Just try to add the protein anyplace you can!
Take care,
Rachel
