I swear we must be the same... sounds like my day and life.  I wouldn't say that I have gas pain- but my tummy rumbles.  I went to my oldest's last soccer game and then went shopping with my main man for a bit- we have a fancy wedding to attend Dec. 8 and trying to find something to wear for both of us is fun.  I'm holding off though.  Congrats for doing so well today!!!

I too am doing better, out to 2 stores for some shopping today.  I wrote in another thread how hard it is to get the protein shakes down.  Just a real turn-off now. 

Im glad things are going well for you!

I was sleeved on 11/12. I'm impressed with all of you who have already hit the stores!  I have a bit of cabin fever so today for my first foray out of the home I am going to go to the movies - no popcorn or candy of course!  Lol. 

 

On Friday and Saturday I was able to drink about 85 ounces of fluids - mostly water, tea, a little crystal light, sf Popsicles, and maybe a little cup of sf jello or pudding. I also have broth and a protein shake.   Since I know now getting fluids in isn't a problem for me, my goal is to up the protein.  I have not had any pain meds since Wednesday - not even a Tylenol.   I have been walking around inside the house a lot ( I do laps!) and have started walks around the block. 

 

Last night was the first time I felt hungry and unsatisfied. I'm pretty sure it was just head hunger though.  I am pretty sure that's going to be the toughest!

 

You will do great, keep us posted on your progress. Remember we are here for you!
