Well, i did horrible today. There was this can of spagetti o's with meatballs in the pantry for two months and i could not stop thinking about them...So, unfortunately i ate 1/4 cup today. So good and hit the spot!!!

Meatballs are going on my grocery list right now!

I know it's not the best thing...but i had a few bites of baked fish and baked potato soup from a restaurant here in town.

OH MY Gosh....a meatball sounds so freaking good!!!

Thanks!....Those are so nice!!!

Hi There...not seeing the link to look at this bracelet...Can you post it again MrsJanice? Thanks!

I take Milk of Magnesia every 3rd day. If i didn't, no telling how long i would go without going

I just logged in to ask this same question! I'll be three weeks out Monday and I'm starting to really feel the hunger pains. My pouch growls and gurgles and i get a slight pain up high between the girls. I'm also a fast eater! What's going on...I thought we were not supposed to feel hunger until much later?

Yay!!!...keep up the great work!!!

I guess you could say i'm a rebel too cause i've been experimenting with different soft foods for a more than a few days now. I'm not cleared for soft foods until Monday...Oh well, i'm doing good with refried beans, mashed potatoes and crackers. Going to try Chilie tonight. My pouch gets angry when it's empty and water seems to maker it angrier!

Ice chips were the first thing i got to have when i was cleared of any leaks. Just going along with what Dr. said i could do

50-60 grams a day....It's getting more difficult cause these shakes are starting to taste like poo!

I find myself taking regular gulps too....Let us know what your Dr. says about it stretching your pouch.

You go girl!!!!...That is awesome!!!...You will be at goal before you know it!!!

Getting really tired of these sweet protein drinks. Did good all week getting in 60 grams. Yesterday only got in about 25. I can't stand the thought of fixing another shake!!!...Also, i did a "no no" yesterday and had 3 low fat tall house crackers. The crunch from those was amazing Left side pain is getting really annoying too! My two week post op appt is today. Have not been on the scale since last Monday. Can't really tell i've lost anything but my feet look skinnier

Hi Wendilou....Same here. I have been feeling very sad that last couple of days and figure it's because of the lack of food. I'll be glad when i can get more variety in my diet. Feeling kinda weak also...trying to get my fluids in. Congrats on your weight loss so far. You go girl!!!

I have the same problem...but i remembered watching a youtube video of someone talking about all the things you must have after RNY surgery. Tongs (steak turners) was one of the items. That's what i've been using when i go to the bathroom. If i come across her video again i will post it.

Thanks Krystal...hoping i can start it next week.

Are you allowed to add mayo to your tuna fish and chicken? If so, what brand of mayo? Do you blend it in the blender?

Congratulations!!!

Hi everyone. I'm 49 and will be 50 in Nov. I had RNY surgery April 22, 2013. Five days later I was back in the ER and had to have emergency surgery for a incarcerated hernia that happened at one of the larger incision sites. I've been back home since Sunday and still very sore on the left side. Not having any problem keeping liquid or anything down....so I'm very thankful for that. Just wish the soreness would go away. I love hearing about everyones experience, the good and the bad

Are any of you other April post ops have a hard time figuring out what the full feeling feels like? Being that we are still in pain from surgery...It's hard for me to tell?

Praying you get some relief for the pain. I wish I could offer some advice

Hope you feel better real soon!
