    My surgery was on 6/4. What can I eat now. I was wishing for some good ole potato soup, of course puree. I am tired of broth and jello. Any advise is much appreciated.

    Ahhhhh? I made it today. I hope you have a speedy recovery. I text you but I'm unsure if you have service out here
  5. The gas pain for me is aweful. The other ladies aren't having gas pain problems like me. Mine will not subside even after taking gas x stips and a lot of walking. Have been Very uncomfortable since got out of surgery 8 +/-hrs ago.
  6. Out of surgery and doing good. Really sore, but I immediately took a gas x strip when got in my room and told them as soon as I can walk wanted to start walking to get rid of the gas.

Found a Leak - Really Sick

by aldugan on 07-28-2015 at 11:33 AM
I know that it's been a while since I've blogged, but I haven't been feeling the best and have now been in the hospital for a week with a leak. They are thinking I've had the leak the whole time and infection set in and that is why I became so sick last week.

If anyone is having pains when they eat and have trouble keeping food down please go get checked out. I was dehydrated and my potassium was dangerously low!

I was really weak, no energy, and it got to a point

Ghrelin Gland vs. PMS

by aldugan on 07-07-2015 at 05:25 PM
Beginning to wonder if the Ghrelin gland was removed. This might be a little TMI, but this is my PMS week and before surgery all I did was eat and then when my period came I didn't want anything to eat…I feel the same way. I was expecting to not feel this way since 85% of my stomach was removed a little over a month ago. I have even craved sugar, which is what I did before…especially chocolate.

This really scares me because I know of a person that works with my mom and she had the

Concerned…NEED FEEDBACK

by aldugan on 06-29-2015 at 07:31 PM
Okay, so I posted in the forum about nibbling all day and someone posted back that what I was doing was very bad. Now I am really concerned!

In the mornings I get up and eat either cereal with skim milk or grits. After I have finished my breakfast is when I fix my protein drink (takes me all day to drink,so I sip on it all day, but if I drink my protein I don't get my water in). Then, for lunch I eat either grilled chicken, vegetables, gumbo juice, mac-n-cheese bowl, etc. and the

Protein App

by aldugan on 06-28-2015 at 02:21 PM
I know I haven't been on in a few days, but I haven't really had anything worth posting. I've been doing good; went to PCP Wednesday and had blood drawn, haven't heard back, so I guess all is good (no news is good news). Will go back next month for another follow up.

I downloaded an app to track what I'm eating. The app only tracks my calories and not my protein….looking for an app to track my protein. Noticing that I'm getting less than 600 calories a day in. I don't always drink
