Need to up my protein/calcium
Mar 17, 2010
Well I am now 1 week and 2 days out of surgery and 29 lbs down !!So far all is going well - I am so much more comfortable now my staples are removed. I can still feel that I am swollen and a bit tender in places, certainly if I try and load the diswasher etc too quickly my body reminds me that I should slow down !.
Have been quite tired so am going to make sure I get a nap every afternoon just for an hour or so. I can now lie on my side at night, but still wake up every time when I turn over so am not getting my full sleep quota yet.
Foodwise I am still not feeling hungry - which is great - but I am conscious that I need to up my intakes to today I am going to start keeping my food diary and tracking how much of everything I'm consuming. Thick drinks still don't feel good so I am staying on thin liquids for now.
I'm going to try to get protein/calcium and nutrients at least 5 times a day.
So my plan for today is :
60ml probiotic milk drink
90ml slimfast/protein shake
90ml soup
90 ml apple juice
60 ml probiotic milk drink
At least 1 litre of water
2 calcium chewable tablets
1 multi vitamin tablet or vitamin drink
