    Well, we're all done and in varying stages of recovery.

    Personally, I'm feeling pretty good, except for this lightheadedness/dizziness. Can only stand lond nough for a quick shower before I feel like I'm about to keel over. I'm trying to drink enough but as we all know, it's a constant battle. I must be getting in something cause my urine isn't concentrated looking. All the flavored waters that were so yummy a week ago are now too sweet and weird tasting except for diet Snapple.

    Thank goodness there's been no constipation, reflux or much nausea.

    I haven't taken as much as a Tylenol post op for pain....but I had a lidocaine pump up until yesterday. I've never heard of anyone having one of these for VSG...it worked wonderfully! I've had one before for shoulder repair and didn't need any other post op pain relievers for that either.

    I'm using the PatchMD vitamin patches for now so no problems with taking vitamins.

    How're all you guys doing?

    Yeah, I think I could get more protein in if it were in chewable foods.

    Pam,

    Benepro is a protein, I purchased from Amazon. It is wonderful to put in shakes and other food items. A light flavorless powder. I have put it in my peach ice shakes and also in soups. It is 30 grams protein a scoop. Alaska Girl B

    I've actually gained a few pounds! I'm sure it's water retention....I HOPE it's water retention! Lol
