Made it home ... Everything went okay. Gallbladder is out ... Liver enzymes are still up but should go down. Lots of pain still though ... Hopefully it will subside soon. Thank u for all the thoughts and prayers!

Try eating with a baby spoon also ... It helps me with taking smaller bites ... Also seems as if you are eating more because you are going to plate to your mouth more often ...

VERY TRUE!!!

Oh goodness!!! Prayers with you also! Get better!

I am feeling so upset wit myself tonight. Tonight I ate Fried! Cheddar peppers from Sonic. I'm so angry with myself! It's not even something on my diet right now ... I'm still on soft foods. What do u do when you feel guilty? (

Thank you ladies! No more moments of weakness for me. That was a horrible feeling of "crap ... What did I do!!!" ... Looks like protein shakes and Greek yogurt for me today!

Premier Protein (Costco)
Ms. Mandy replied to punk.rock.mama's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I found some at SAMs club. 12 for $19.00. They taste great and can actually drink all of it. 30g of protein in 11oz isn't bad at all! -
Thank you ladies! Glad to I'm not the only one with crazy hormones! Lol

What Do U Miss The Most?
Ms. Mandy replied to rpil003's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Pizza, Dr. Pepper, taking big gulps when thirsty, some restaurants and french fries! But learning to give it all up and getting healthy to avoid being overweight and all the health risks that come along with the extra weight is totally worth it! As I see the weight coming off those things do not even sound good!! ) -
I was the same way. My surgeon told me to take two stool softners and add benefiber daily to my shake or anything I eat. I might try the miralax as stated in another post because I still have to take something to move things along.

I'm am feeling way bummed out and feeling like a complete failure I have not lost any weight for almost two weeks and according to the scale I actually gained. I admit I have trouble getting in my protein and fluid somedays but this is really upsetting. People ask how much have you lost and I hate saying nothing for awhile with a smile on my face. Hope this ends soon

Thank you ladies for all the suggestions and encouragement ... Makes me feel a little knowing I'm not the only one. My surgery was Nov. 14th and I'm 27 years old. I did have some complications after surgery ... Blood clots in my lung

Has anyone tried caffeine yet? Like a cup of coffee?

Not Eating Enough...never Thought I'd Hear That!
Ms. Mandy replied to nickster81's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have talked to my dietitian and she said calories are not a huge deal because you should be keeping the total Less than 10 and saturated fat 0-2 and as much protein you can get. Water/fluids and protein is the major thing right now. I'm only a month out so it could differ for everyone. -
Does anyone get really nauseated when taking their daily medications? I get extremely nauseated after taking them ... Almost to the point where I don't want to take them at all. Any suggestions on what to do??
