I’ve Lost 6 Pounds Since My Surgery On October 3…

I was hoping that I would. I gained 25 pounds since January. The last 15# because they told me to gain weight before surgery. I hope to lose that much.
I can’t eat very much right now but getting a lot of protein and also what I eat is healthy, no sugar or fried foods or chips etc.

Sounds like you've got it all handled! It's wonderful that you are now able to make soups again, and that soon you will be baking! I am thrilled for you!

@4meAndyou back at the hospital now

@cherokeepatti Why????
4meAndyou · F
@Musicman She thought she detected necrosis.

@4meAndyou A cold front is coming tomorrow for this whole week. Perfect for baking and soup.
4meAndyou · F
@cherokeepatti It is warming up here today, and I don't even want to bother feeding myself. I should probably be in bed, but I am NOT giving in to this cold.

@4meAndyou You need some chicken soup and someone to bring it to you. And some fresh fruits.
4meAndyou · F
@cherokeepatti Yeah. I took a vitamin because none of my fresh fruits contain vitamin C...I don't think, anyway. And there is no one who will bring me chicken soup, unless I make it myself.

@4meAndyou I have saved parakeet’s lives with vitamins and Smart Water.
4meAndyou · F
@cherokeepatti Well, I'm a bit larger than a parakeet...🤣🤣🤣...but I hope the vitamin and the food I just ate helps. I really want to lie down and rest...so I might do that.

@4meAndyou If a bird is listless due to being sick and they lose their appetite and don’t eat for 72 hours they will die.
4meAndyou · F
@cherokeepatti I know you would never let that happen to ANY of your babies. 😊😊😊

@4meAndyou Ike had a rough time last winter. He lost his appetite and wouldn’t eat for 2 days. I decided to put 3 drops of vitamins in his water cup instead of 1 and it brought his appetite back. I went back to just 1 drop and he wouldn’t eat much. It helped his disposition too. Remembering that 20-minute fit he did when we sat down at the table for dinner and he was shouting Thank You in an angry voice and saying “What do we get”. He wouldn’t stop till I told him if he didn’t like watching us eat to turn around and not look. So that’s what he did. Then he would scoot over by Boo-Boo and say “Parakeet, what do we get? What do we have?” They started calling each other Parakeets so I would stay out of and know he wasn’t fussing at me.

@cherokeepatti I'm glad that Ike's health improved after the vitamins! I think I will take another one today, for my own health's sake.
cherokeepatti · 61-69, F
@4meAndyou Yeah you should take them every day for a few days and then stop if you want to. I take zinc too and that helps the immune system

@cherokeepatti These are from Swanson's, and are a broad spectrum multi-vitamin with minerals. I have zinc...but it's very hard on my stomach.
