My dr said nothing about ulcers and smoking... Idk. pre surgery weight 310 • RNY 6/20/2012 • current weight 280

I smoke and was never told once to stop. I know it's not good for me but my dr was very supportive (military doc). Never had to do a nicotine test. pre surgery weight 310 • RNY 6/20/2012 • current weight 280

I didn't say anything until someone asked. I already had my mind set that I was doing this for ME and ME only (I don't have kiddos) let the negativity go in one war and out the other. pre surgery weight 310 • RNY 6/20/2012 • current weight 280

Today I went to the gym after being cleared for exercise and walked/jogged a mile! And must I say.. DAMN I FEEL GREAT! What kind of exercises do y'all do? I'm fixing to move to Korea and I am looking forward to also hitting the gym there! (hubby is active army) so excited to be dropping this weight. pre surgery weight 310 • RNY 6/20/2012 • current weight 280

This is probably a little TMI but I'll just say it lol so I was feeling horrible after eating a few crackers so I made myself throw up. The only weird thing was is that I only threw up clear looking liquid.. Is this normal. Please do not judge me for making myself throw up. I sat here for almost 2 hours with no relief after walking and trying other things to make the feeling pass. pre surgery weight 310 • RNY 6/20/2012 • current weight 280

Okay so I am about 2 1/2 weeks post op and I am having trouble getting in my protein. My dr wants me getting at least 75g of protein. I have tried every kind of protein shake imaginable! I have even tried the isopure zero carb drinks (the ones that come almost in a clear liquid). All of it tastes horrible to me. Before my RNY I didn't mind the shakes and now any kind of drink with protein in it tastes horrible and makes me feel sick. I have even tried the unflavored protein powder and mixed it in with several different things and I can't stand it. I am pretty much eating solids and anything healthy that I want. Any ideas on how to get my protein with out the shakes? pre surgery weight 310 • RNY 6/20/2012 • current weight 284

I feel the same way. I have no issues eating fast but I try to slow it down and only eat what I am supposed to. I also make sure to eat healthy even though I have tried unhealthy things and I am fine. I am only 2 weeks out. pre surgery weight 310 • RNY 6/20/2012 • current weight 284

Mine gets sore especially after I pack it or if I move wrong. Mine is still deep too. Idk how long it is supposed to take to heal up. pre surgery weight 310 • RNY 6/20/2012 • current weight 284

I have to pack it until it is completely healed up pre surgery weight 310 • RNY 6/20/2012 • current weight 284

Yeah I hate having to pack it! But it's totally with it to me pre surgery weight 310 • RNY 6/20/2012 • current weight 284
