Thanks for asking!!!!!!!!1 Topic: RE: Just Curious....
My surgerty date was 9/17/07. I don't think that I have gotten everything in even one day. The fluids are a real problem for me. I just don't feel there is enough time in the day to get in everything that I need. And I am sooooooooooooo not hungry. Just last week i started introducing more solid food into my diet and have gotten sick on several occassions. I think more about food now than I ever did before surgery even though I was on a continuous diet. I know that I have an easier time to look forward to and the weight loss is amazing. I still can honestly say that I would make the same decision for the surgery again. Keep up the great work and just do as much as you can.

Topic: RE: Fluid leaking from incision?
As long as the drainage is clear and does not have an odor, it is fine. I had an infection in one of my incisionswhich had nasty green drainage that smelled bad. I also was running a fever. My incision is still draining and I had my surgery on 9/11, so you're not doing bad.
Hang in there.

Many smells make me sick now. I cooked bacon for the family and had to leave the room. Even the smell of coffee makes me sick these days. Hopefully this will pass.

I go to my PCP tomorrow I prefer dr scales over my home scale.
I think my biggest challenge is exercise right now. I went on a tour of my local YMCA tonight and am pretty sure I am going to join. They have all the workout equipment for aerobics, cardio, and strength training as well as yoga classes, aerobic classes, spinning classes, and other classes. So I should be able to find a routine I like and it is only 2 or 3 miles from my house. Oh and no contract I can pay month to month.

I am still stuggling with protein. I just don't love it. I get one protein shake in a day and know I have to get another but just can not seem to force myself. Something to work on I guess.
