How I stay healthy now....

May 04, 2011

I've had several people ask me what it takes to stay healthy post-op, so I thought I'd blog it....
How I stay healthy...64oz water or more, 800calories, 80g protein, 2 multivitamins, 2 Calcium, 2 iron, 2 selenium, 2 vitaminC, 2 vitamin D3, 2 folate, 2 zinc, 2 Biotin,2 magnesium, probiotics, stool softener, B12 shots every 2 weeks, Rx from Drs, EXERCISE, therapy.That's after surgery, 3 days@hospital, PAIN, 4wks to heal & learn to eat again. Hair fall out@3months, dumping syndrome a couple times, no fatty/fried/sugary/"white"food & get DRUNK on 1/2 glass wine. I will take this & eat this way 4ever.  Oh- plus I've had to buy new shoes and re-size rings because feet & fingers got smaller. I've gone down from a 22 to an 8 so far, so lots of clothes shopping. But, it's a great ride, and I'd do it all over again! Not Not cheap, not easy, but if you stick with it, it works :)
