new beginnings

[Anna1980]

Hi yeah I could try them thanks, I'm having a exante shake in a morning, a yogurt for dinner and a cuppa soup or a shake for tea so only getting about 600 calories at the most xx

 

[Sophina]

Oh Anna I do hope it improves for you soon Hun and it definitely sounds like the right thing for you to do xx

 

[traceyb79]

Yeah that's not enough hon. Are you drinking the shakes with water or milk?

I was having a tesco shake for brekkie then few hours later a danio then lunch was a cuppa soup and then maybe another shake in the afternoon to keep me going. Then tea was soup or custard.

Maybe try shakes that need milk and try the danio as well. They are filling and have the protein as well.

I would try having little and often so something every few hours.

 

[Anna1980]

Yeah I will try hun, how do you get on sitting at your desk? I sit at my dinning table and after about 20 mins I'm in pain, driving make the pain really bad too xx

 

[traceyb79]

I was uncomfortable at first. The first two days I went back I shouldn't have so I'll exclude them. But last week when I went back properly I was ok. I just kept getting up to move around more than I probably would, but I would also end up drinking and eating more and not watching the sips so kept getting really uncomfortable.

Today I have managed to go on the train to London to a client so much better than last week.

Sounds like you need a few more days rest and definitely building the calories up x

 

[Anna1980]

Yeah I think I'm going to, god I still can't believe how quick you went back you must have a high pain threshold, I feel like I'm being a wimp I guess last time I had an op which was when I had my daughter by c-section I was with my husband and he helped with things round the house and with the girls xx

 

[traceyb79]

I have never had to rest before and I thought I knew best . Underestimated the surgery really

Remember my girls are a bit older than your aswell so I probably didn't have to do as much as you are x

 

[Caroline jess]

I would try having a protein shake, like body builders have (syntrax, premier protein, gold standard whey etc) you need more protein than a diet shake can give you at the moment xx
