Thanks Didi, I feel better, all time, I did take pictures but Im not brave enough to post them yet. I keep plugging along at the fluids I burp so much after water, I dont Know if Im swallowing air or if its normal but it can be painful! I can get in almost 1/2 cup of protein, dont know if thats normal or not, all in all its not as bad as I thought it was going to be!
Thanks for being there.......Connie

Try eating and drinking very slow. I still burp after I eat and drink. The gas takes awhile .I was able to get that much in of yogurt only but I think that was too much so I would stop at 2 oz and have yogurt or shake more frequently. Takes alot off trial and error. YOU will figure out whats BEST for YOU!!! Best of luck!!!! Message me if you need anything.
And congrats again!!!!

Thanks, Didi, Im going to call the nut in am, Im up again, not sure if Im trying too hard to get protein in or if its normal gas, but Im up tonight and have a lot of gas after each sip of water I burp for a long time its painful and making me not want to drink. I bought some gas X tonight trying that, maybe it will help. Im up walking all day, I dont stay in bed but maybe I should lay down more, Id feel great if it wasnt for this dang gas.
