Hey Y'all!
I just wanted to say hello! I have been keeping to myself a lot since my surgery, but I kindof miss y'all!
I was swtiched on the 1st of June, and I've had a hard time since then. Nothing I can't handle, but it's definitely been a challenge. For the whole first week, I couldn't hold down any protein. At all. I threw up every ounce I drank. I tried all the different brands and different protein sources. Nada. After the first week, I was able to hold down one protein drink per day. I was still being active, and doing most of my daily life stuff, just on about 200 calories a day. I was starving the whole time. The NUT told me to eat eggs and cottage cheese and yogurt. Had my 3 week checkup yesterday. They said to go ahead and try other soft foods. Lately, I'm nauseous all of the time. I haven't been coming online, because I don't want to bitch and moan, or ask the same questions that I've read the answers to archiving back to the very beginnings of this site. I know I just have to wait it out, and eventually, it will get better and better.
I just wanted to touch base, because I always hate it when my friends only talk to me when they need something, and I don't want to be that guy!
Hope y'all are doing well!
