    Coconut Water

    It's not high in carbs??
  6. It's not recommended, although I've had a cocktail here and there. There is a high incidence of people developing an addiction because of the way it metabolizes. I know many people that are post bypass and drink socially without issue.

    One Month Surgiversary !

    Congrats! I too was stalled week 3-4...it will Pick up soon.
  10. Liquid stage sucks...you guys will feel Much better once you can chew something;) be careful with protien water, it fills you up but not much protein. Can you drink protien shakes? If you can get up to 60-70g of protien you won't feel so weak

    Right After

    I came home from hospital on full liquids ( some people came home on clear liquids), I had: soup- not chunky, sf fudgesicles and Popsicles, propel Water, soy milk, crystal light, and protien shakes....make sure to get your protien shakes- most important:) shortly thereafter I started eggs, cottage cheese and Greek yogurt. Good luck!

    Right After

    Your surgeon should Review all of that with you and provide you a list. Most people are on liquids for a while. Do u have a list?

    I Feel Horrible

    At 12 days I was on all liquids so if you are having egg, you are getting more than I was. I'm 7 weeks and it gets much better. Just focus on protien, it will get better:)

    Urine Catherter? :/

    Some doctors use a drainage tube, to drain fluid out of one of the incisions. Mine didn't use that either. I guess I lucked out. No drain no catheter. Maybe your surgeon doesn't use either good luck.

    Urine Catherter? :/

    I never had one...my surgeon doesn't use them.

    Ouchy Pouchy

    Have you been drinking alcohol? A friend of mine was drinking and smoking a lot, rather early on and she developed an ulcer at the top opening of her pouch. Needed surgery to repair.
