Learning to become independent after losing my parents
I'm starting to learn to become independent after losing both my parents. Even though my mom passed on 14 years ago, after that it was my dad and I for awhile, then it was a blessing from God that my in-laws accepted my dad as one of their own when I got married. I bless God everyday for the people he has brought into my…

Hello!
Hello I am new to your group and thought it would be good to have and give as much support as possible to others.

Learning that I will have good and bad days.
I'm learning I will have good and bad days, but the bad days aren't all that bad. I'm thinking that some of it has to do with changes in weight and medications.

Can't Wait to Get off all liquids and add some soft foods
I think it's the aspect of not chewing, but I really want to start adding some soft foods, like Greek yogurt, cottage cheese. The jello helps, but it's bad when you start craving protein and not necessarily meat. Any suggestions?

Trying to cope with my new life.
finding it a little overwhelming trying to get in my fluids and proteins right now. Also I do not like the taste of the pain med and it was suggested to try Children's Liquid Tylenol, but sugar free and I am not having any luck on that. I would welcome any and all suggestions. Just had my RNY on Tuesday. Extrememly tired…
