Excited For Today
working4shoes replied to Stacey Dayonne's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
Congratulation!! It will be a new adventure this year for you!! -
Me too!!!! Another bad habit that caused me to gain was all that damn beer!! Lol
-
I miss diet coke and diet dr pepper. But that was one of the bad habits I took up after my first RNY which could have lead to my weight gain. My surgeon says carbonation can stretch your pouch. I still crave the fizzy sweetness!!

Awesome! I'm wearing some capris today that 2 months ago I couldn't button and they are stretchy! lol. It feels good to get into clothes I haven't been able to wear for a while.

Welcome! And congratulation on your loss!

Traveling Hungry
working4shoes replied to jadeharper's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Can you have chicken broth? That helped me a lot. I was also allowed tomatoe soup. -
I use an iPhone /iPad app called Protein 1. It sounds like the others described. But I might check those out too.

I try not to use shakes. But I do add a scoop of unflavored unjury to my crystal light which adds 21 grams. Also I add 1 scoop of chicken soup flavor unjury another 21 grams to my shredded chicken and mix it with Greek yogurt instead of mayo then add seasoning to get as much as I can. I also eat a lot of tuna.

Congrats! Get used to it as you get hotter and sexier!!

My first RNY my surgeon kept the drain in for a week. It's not really painful when it comes out. Just a nuisance. This time the drisn came out on day 2 while I was still in the hospital.
-
I have this same problem. I almost wish I would have an intolerance or vomit when I reached 3oz. But everything goes down fine. I'm worried to stretch my pouch since this is my 2nd time. I don't want to take up bad habits like I did before. Portion control is hard. Putting what you can have on your plate and when it's gone your done is a great idea.

Ahh A Great Dinner!
working4shoes replied to dstollery's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm with you. I have been able to tolerate everything and I don't get the full sensation so I have to be careful not to push it. -

Spiru-Tien Protien Mix
working4shoes replied to roxyraquel's topic in Protein, Vitamins, and Supplements
I like the Oh Yeah! Premade Protein shakes. They have several flavors. I get them at The Vitaman Shoppe. Also another premade called. RTD51. It's 51 grams of protein. I like the chocolate. You just have to try a few until you find something you like. -
I'm pretty sure we can all relate. Don't worry you will look back at that pic soon enough and see now far you have come!

Need Some Advise Please
working4shoes replied to Christina's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I don't know anything about that however I took fertility drugs to have my first daughter before my RNY. After I lost 100lbs I was on the pill And got preg unexpectedly. Total shock to us. So it does happen. I wasn't ovulating either before surgery.
