Since I have had surgery, I have developed an irritation to heat. Any time I'm in the heat, I break out in heat bumps and start itching terribly. Has anyone else had this problem?

Can we eat the carb watch wrap bread? I haven't tried any bread and was wondering. I will be two month out next Sunday.

Thank you so much! I appreciate any input that I can get. I probably wouldn't eat any anyway. This stall that I'm experiencing is kind of depressing.

I rarely ever have a bowel movement. Last week I took two correctols and it hurt my stomach so bad. Is anyone else having this problem? If so, what do you take?

This is probably way too much information, but with all of the bowel movement talk I just had a healthy one. I don't know why, but I'm glad it happened without taking a laxative!

I had the shaking, sweating, itching and horrible pain when I took the correctols too. I think I am going to start the miralax today.

Thank you guys! I just downloaded the MyFitnessPal app! How do I friend you?

Thank you for your suggestions and empowerment!

Inquiring minds want to know!

My first day of eating did not go while at all. I had surgery on June 10th. Yesterday I tried yoplait light and refried beans. Neither went well. Help!!!

Anyone else have this problem ?

Thanks for the info!

I will be one month out in 5 days and want to know what might be good menu choices.

Thank you! I will get a measuring tape. I haven't been doing a good job with protein, but I'm starting now!

Thanks! I'm sure that's my problem too.

Can you have milk?

Thanks guys! I have been puking since yesterday. Do you all take carafate before meals?

Any recommendations on first foods for when I'm allow to eat soft foods? I have not bumped yet and I'm scared to experiment.

I am 11 days post op and I was thinking of trying a sugar free smoothie at two weeks. Did anyone try these at that time?

I had surgery on June 10th and I am wanting to do sit ups. I have lost 18lbs since the 10th and know that I am going to have a serious apron and want to start working at tightening up the skin early. I am now down to 242 lbs and I am ready to work . Is doing sit ups at this stage too early?

Thank you for the advice!

LouiseC, I sincerely hope that Janice can take heed to the words of your post. If not, I would like for you to know that it has been a source of inspiration to me!

Hello, I had surgery on June 10th. I understand your feeling. It's hard when nothing fits right. I see this as a sign of progress. I am constantly looking forward to the day when I can go in a store and buy whatever I like to fit my body without having to worry about it being available in my size. My mom has the gastric bypass 9 years ago and my best friend had the sleeve last year. They both look great and says it is the best thing that has happened to them and don't regret a moment. Hang in there. If it was easy, it wouldn't be worth doing.

I have lupus and I am having the procedure on June 10th.
