Hi,

Today was such a good day!

Yesterday, I was so very,very tired. Today I woke up with a headache and started in on liquids and started to feel better. So far, I've had about 1400 mls in fluids and 65 gm of protein! I also had my first outing to krogers and took a two hour nap!

I was getting pretty discouraged about protein drinks and saw some drink recipes and made one that is 45 gm of protein. It has my vanilla protein, Greek yogurt and skim milk. It was good.

Thanks for all the support. Everyone keeps saying everyday gets better so I'm hoping the worse is over.

Lynn

P.s. Jody if you read this, the protein drink recipes you gave recently on here were what gave me the idea for my protein drink.
Thank you.
