I am Home!! sippin an walkin !!!!!
Hi everyone,
Thank you all so much for the well wishes it was so nice. I have to say I am really sore, but other than that I am great !!! I have been sippin and walking around. but I am tired. I ate some cream of wheat in the hospital and no problems. I am now trying to figure this all out. I know I need to get in all my fluids but how do you possibly find time to eat anything when you are always sipping. I am almost done with my protien shake this am but I am afraid to drink to fast. I have been drinking this for over an hour so far. I am going to cook some sweet potato for later, maybe I should put some unflavored unjury in it. Anyway it is nice to be home and thanks again for all the well wishes.

Welcome home! and welcome to the loosers bench.
I had to get out a kitchen timer when I was first home to be able to figure out when I could drink and when I could eat. Lucky you, our program does liquid proteins for the 2 weeks post op.

Our diet is very loose, everything has to be blended, it needs to be the consistancy of fine applesauce. I don't really feel much like eating anyway. I am supposed to be sipping all day because it is much more important to get the fluids in than anything else at this point, plus I am afraid to eat too much afraid I will get sick. Taking it slowly..

Oh! I don't think cream of wheat counts... unless it was really really watered (milk) down. You may want to check on that.
Unless they have changed things since I went through the program. But welcome to the other side! And take it easy. I kind of forgot you were having surgery right before the skating party. So don't feel you have to come! Don't pu****!!

Kathi G. I LOVE MY RNY!! 
glad you're home and on the mend. make sure to get protein in first. it will save on the hair loss later. water is very important too. i remember falling asleep with a bottle of water. i'd wake up enough to sip and then back to sleep. good luck and get lots of rest.
