Kristi I feel the same way. I need a lot more protein than I'm getting in. I just get so full quickly. Hopefully it will get better in time. Kay

24 oz fruit2o plus 2 protein drinks 1/2 baked potato with shredded low fat cheddar cheese I'm going fo desert now - a frozen fruit juice bar The baked potato was my very first solid food and it was absolutely heavenly! Sharon

Hi everyone, I am really tired today and have a new healing pain in my abdomen, the dr said it was muscles working with the sutures and healing. Still, its brought me down a bit, I was supposed to go into my office and ended up working at home. There's always tomorrow... I feel like I eat so much and am so full but when I write it, its really not that much. In my past life I was a big breakfast person but now struggle to eat anything before 9am. B - 1/3 c cottage cheese with 1/3 of avocado L - shake with soy milk - my daily grand bonanza of 32g protein S - 1/2 mozzarella stick and few nibbles of that chicken salad I should just toss D - 1/2 c warm white beans pureed with 1/3 avocado Total protein in the 50's - I need to get this up. Had about 45oz of water, too. The avocado is just yummy and adds some flavor to everything, the nutritionist said its the good fat, too. I wish I was hungry as I'd like some soup - something warm. Someone asked about protein powder - walgreens.com has beneprotein and their shipping is free. There's no taste and its 6g per scoop. I've heard that these proteins dont work as well with hot things and tend to clump. Have a good one... Tiffany

Hi Kay, Today was my first day back at work, so I didn't do to good on fluids but hopefully tomorrow will be better. B-1/2 c. Cream of Wheat with FF Soy Milk L-1/2 c.

And I really didn't stock up on suppliments, I didn't realize how much I would depend on them the first few days. Again I had to eat all day just to get what I got and I over did the fruit juice!!
