On the Cheap Side

I wore jeans to work today, but it was not a good idea because even though they are loose, they still pinched around my incisions, and that's not good.

I ran into Wal*Mart to grab something comfy.
I ended up getting 3 pairs of El Cheapo capri pants, denim, white and army green each $8.
It made sense to me to get these transitional items, I won't feel as bad in a few weeks when they don't fit and I must donate them, no big investment there.
I got a size 16-18 which are pretty roomy already, but they fit my swollen tummy just fine.

Yesterday I bought a protein powder pack to try:



I could only take two sips...awful, awful stuff.
So far, the Adkins and EAS are my favorites.

  1. Ugh, I remember the swollen tummy. I looked pregnant for weeks.

    Congrats on having had your surgery and it's great how well you're doing post-op. It's a learning curve once you start eating, but you'll get there. And there's a lot of support on the blogs.

    I was trying to find how to follow your blog, but I can't see it anywhere.

  4. HA HA...I hear you on those protein drinks...some are God Awful!!! The only ones besides the High Protein Slim Fast (20g) that I could take and actually liked was the Muscle Milk (30-32g). The rest were horrible...one of them I tried tasted like paint thinner...lol...but the muscle milk was actually pretty good...although expensive! Good luck!
