    That is horrible KellBell and Krystal!...I agree...ya'll deserve better than that. My husband has been great and I could not imagine not having his support! Do ya'll have a weight loss surgery group in your area for moral support?

    I'm 4 weeks out today and for the past few days I've been laying on my stomach but not comfortable enough to sleep. I think i could of done it earlier, but i had to have emergency hernia repair 5 days after surgery and there's still a bunch of tightness from the mesh they used.

    I asked the question on another thread and someone (can't remember her name) said that you measure liquids and weigh solids. Makes perfect since to me and that's what i'm starting to do.

    Hey ya'll....just thinking that it would be so informative if along with the food that we eat...that we also tell how much we ate and how far out we are from surgery. JMO....Tonight i felt like breakfast. I had scramble eggs with sausage crumbled up in them. It weighed out to about 3.5 oz.....Surgery date April 22. It made me satisfied but also seemed like too much food :/ I've been in a two week stall and getting very discouraged.

    Thank you

    I started of measuring and then i started weighing my food? Now I'm really confused cause i see so many talking about eating a half a cup of food...and not many talking about weighing it??? What is the correct thing to do...Weigh or Measure?

    Stretched pouch....?

    TxDumplin replied to Pam Peltz's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    I'm worried also that i may of stretched mine out too...Seems i can eat more than everyone else. I'm scared the RNY surgery will not work for me. Also, i've never dumped or throwed up. Shouldn't i at least throw up if I eat too much???...Confused :/

    Seen my regular Dr. Wednesday for a check up and gained a pound!!!...Plus, blood work came back and the nurse called me today and said I was low in vitamin D. So I have to start taking 2000 units. Maybe that's why I have not felt very good lately?

    My surgery date was April 22. I'm not cleared to go to 4 oz until May 22 but went ahead and started doing it a few days ago with one of my meals each day. I use a scale to measure instead of a measuring cup. It's a bunch of food for my pouch and i'm really more than satisfied after eating that amount.

    Got me a scale to weigh my food and 4 oz is a bunch! I put some sliced brisket, and a teaspoon of potatoes and a teaspoon of pinto beans on my childs plate. I'm stuffed and need a nap right about now!!!

    Cat scan

    TxDumplin replied to vbgirl264's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    I had to drink it 5 days after surgery for a cat scan. They told me to just drink what i could. Had no problem with it.
