confused?

I was a little obsessive at first and driving myself crazy then, someone told me that what the dr and nut tells you is based on the averages of what most can tolerate. I was able to tolerate much less and finally decided to trust what my body was telling me. I prioritized fluids first to prevent dehydration then, proteins (of course, protein shakes are fluids also so I tried to concentrate on that but when I got nauseous I switched to water for a bit). it will even itself out. I did measure food (and still do) as I don't want to eat more than I am supposed to. I also track fluids because I find it easy to not get what I should. I guess what I am saying is that go slow, don't be anxious, do the best you can and as you heal it will get easier to do what is being recommended.

Thank you for taking the time to respond.  It helps to get the reassurance.
