    Bad Emotional Days ?

    Try going to the worldaccordingtoeggface.blogspot.com She has a ton of pizza recipes where she uses a mission carb control tortilla for the crust. I am a pizza junkie also. I am going to try to make a basic recipe this week:)

    Emotional...wow

    I feel the same as you so I have one thing to raise your hopes perhaps...pilsbury makes sugar free cake and icing (sweetened with Splenda). Definitely something you wouldn't want to eat every day as it's empty calories but a way that you can still have cake on your special day!! Hope this cheers you up a bit. I have been doing a lot of food mourning lately so I totally get it!!

    My Post Op Confusion

    My doctor said vomiting is NEVER normal. You should call them right away.

    Constipation

    My health care nurse told me to take a tablespoon a day of milk of magnesia. Works fairly well!! I am scared to take or use any fiber supplement due to bloating. Couldn't that potentially stretch my pouch or cause alot of gas pain? I have enough of that as it is! Lol!

    It is absolutely amazing isn't it? I felt so good after I told everyone. I got tons of support and well wishes. I expected people to be rude I guess. But the've all been great! And it made me feel super empowered and like I was owning my journey. You know what I mean?

    Tomorrow Is My Surgery!

    Good luck. Walk ASAP and as much as you can!! I did a ton of laps in the hospital. And every night since the night after I got home I have walked in the park for 30-45 minutes. I have to go sometimes at random times to walk. It's the only thing that helps with gas or stomach pains.

    Calories/carbs?

    Mine said between 600 and 800 calories a day.
  19. Right now...I was told not to focus on calories but to get in fluids and protein. I finally got my dietician to tell me between 600-800 calories a day. I am four weeks post op.

    Lacy...any questions you have...feel free to ask. We are all here for you!
  21. And it's really not a question ....after surgery you just know that you can't eat that. I don't even want it! So you slipped a little now...I just wanted to point out that you will not want the same amounts or even the same foods!!
  22. So sorry. I was so scared of getting sick before surgery. Take lots of vitamin D. Best of luck!

    Horrible Gas Pains

    I have had some pretty severe gas pains as well. The thing that works best for me is to go for a 30-45 minute walk in the park.
