Can taking protein rich diet have some adverse effects ?
Traci J. replied to indian's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I've heard people get kidney stones following, but as long as you drink plenty of liquids to help flush the system it's not too big of a problem, unless you're already prone to them. -

Haven't fit into this dress in years!

You look fantastic! -
Try adding more milk/soy to it to thin it a bit, that might help if it's a thickness issue. Experiment with flavors; search shake recipes on the forum and you will find a ton of them. Hope that helps. Good luck!

I think alot of that is head hunger (cause you're used to eating at certain times and certain amounts, etc.), but I've also heard that acid buildup in the stomach can feel like hunger as well. Your Dr. should've prescribed you something.

Help...headache. Surgery Tomorrow!

If you have any biofreeze (or icyhot), or lavender oil you can rub it on your temples and along the base of your hairline. It works wonders. -

Hi all. I'm looking for a surgery sister/brother. I'd like to go through the experience with someone who's going through the same things, to be supportive and support each other through this huge rebirth to a healthy us. Can't wait! Wish everyone the best of luck in their journey.
