Anyone have them after drinking a shake or having something to eat or even whem taking vitamins? Im two weeks out and hiccup after ingesting something. Its not like consistent hiccups its like two to three back to back and stops. . Normal?

Hi, I know what you mean.. I'm about three weeks out and had that feeling in my second to third week. I was thinking I had a hernia being that I felt a lump under all the incisions. About a week later the lumps shrank and are pretty much not there. Its just the incisions healing and sutures they use. Just dont lift or push anything heavy

Has it changed tremendously for anyone?

Will I ever buffalo or kun pao anything?

LOL... so cute! Love it!

Hey ladies in two weeks and one day in.. started my journey at 235 amd down to 220 -----goal 145 standing at 5'3

Thanks Ladies!!! I was so upset thinking ill mwver be able to pour on the hot sauce! I havent tried yet of course since im two weeks in but id be so missing out when im back to a normal diet!

Awesome! Hows the whole eating thing going over? I'm just 2 weeks out yesterday.

Im going into my third week and say my Nut yesterday.. Egg drop is approved on her list. She said eggs are pretty much blended for us and having it in soup is "A" Okay!

Hey JessicaAnn! How far along are you?

Hi! I'm from Jersey! Here to help and support!

Aha I see!! girl your awesome! Thanks!!! PS.. i had a chuckle with my BF when I read your "did they take enough out".. LOL.. Ive said that a couple times this week! LOL

Laura! Thank you greatly for explaining this! I never knew that and i understand now! Greatly greatly appreciated. I guess since im still in stage 2-3 i haven't had the opp to put anything in that will cause this valve to close and sense when I'm full.. IS this right?

Whats weird for me is that Im a newbie.. Almost a full two weeks and i feel like i can drink more than that.. I havent gotten that "FULL FEELING" yet.. Also im scared to even feel it.. is there something wrong?

O girl! tell me about it! I was an energy drink junkie. My NUT didnt clear for my firt op date because of my food logs having red bull over them! LOL and coffee.. I am or was an espresso drinker.. lets just say my pre-op diet helped ween me off of that.. Lets say HEADACHES for days!

Any ideas? I started with these shakes I bought from walmart. They where called Whey Advanced it was 30grams of protein per serving which was awesome and drinking them prior to surgery was good too. After surgery they were too sweet and I would gag just trying to get them down. I have now moved onto Muscle Milk Protein Shakes that are pre-made and they are awesome except they are 14oz bottles and after just about my 8oz i start to feel sick. I'm also eating Chobani Yogurts but what else can I do. Im also eating a string cheese here and there.. let me know forget the cottage... But these items get overwhelming and I start looking for other items.. HELP!

Really after two weeks they cleared you? Crap! I'll be two full weeks on Thursday and i saw my surgeon on Monday and he didnt say anything about clearence or being at stage four Gotta see the NUT this week and see what she says but im still in blended stage and lets just say im still shaking it and cheesing it up!

Yea, I just read the ratings and saw how much they cost.. A bit pricey.. $40 for 12-16oz bottles.. Very steep... but i guess when your not spending money going out to eat and drink that's a small price to pay for nutrition. Im going to call the company tomorrow and see if they'll send me a sample to see if i want to proceed. More than likely i will being that my choices are running low! Thanks for the info.. PS im loving my sugar free Popsicles!

Just looked up the isopure they have gatoraide like drinks with 40grams of protein. Im going to try and call the company tomorrow to see if they can send me a sample tomorrow to see if I like them. Not so bad when trying to getting in your liquids.. This might work!Thanks Chantel!

The thing is.. You have to drink like 3 of them to almost make your quota for the day and taking all this liquid is not eat :/

Get it GURL!!! You look fab! What were your stats prior to the 3 months?

Hi All! My name is Priscilla, I'm from Northern NJ and was sleeved on August 1st, 2013. I'm really looking to build a strong foundation here on ST to help guide me threw my new Journey. So far I'm doing OK.. I slipped up and "tested the waters" and came on here for advice, well the community had a lot to say and kicked me right back to the starting line.
