Same here! I am glad, though, that I can still have my OJ. Just in small quantities

Made myself a snack. I got bananas the other day, peeled and cut them in half and froze them. Then I'll take one out and dip it in a little peanut butter. So yummy. Next time, though, I'll put Popsicle sticks in them so I don't freeze my fingers -

I can't take the papaya enzymes anymore I've tried them so man times and ended up still puking after, that now I swear they make me puke. It's all in my head, I know. -

I've always shed a LOT so I haven't really noticed a difference -

At least the sausage patty that I had in a breakfast sandwich didn't bother me. Fried sausage I'm sure would. -

I can have one piece tops. Usually limit it to half a piece. Any more than that and I'll get sick. Sausage doesn't bother me. -

I was told I should definitely be having shakes, it's near impossible to get enough Protein in a day from food alone. -

I've found that I can't eat the same thing twice in one day. If I have something for lunch it'll be fine but if I have it again for dinner it makes my tummy rather angry. Weird. -

Absolutely!! You'll be extra fertile now and you want to make sure you're protected! I started Nuva Ring and I love it. I waited 3 months but probably could've started it right away.

No noodle tuna casserole. Made with cauliflower. It was delicious and my pouch is very happy. -
Am I Over-Reacting?

And very true! I don't even keep my scale at home. I leave it at my boyfriends house and only weigh myself once a week. -

Ok well my surgery was 2/27. In December 2012 I weighed 419. On my day of surgery I weighed 399. Judging by my home scale I'm down to 321(ish). So that's a loss of 78 lbs since surgery, 98 total. My goal is 215(ish). Just wondering on people's opinions on this. Does my loss so far seem good or slow? -

Not exactly sure what you mean by 'malabsorption window'....I was always told the malabsorption will last forever. -

Same thing with drinks. At first I'd tell them I didn't want anything to drink with my meal. Then one time I had the waitress ask me 5 times during a meal if I was sure I didn't want anything to drink. Now I just get a water and it either sits there untouched or my boyfriend drinks it. -

I find myself feeling kind of awkward when eating out and the waiter sees how little I ate. I almost always ask for the rest to go, but I feel like they're insulted that I didn't like the food or something, anyone I eat with (at least so far) has known I had the surgery so I haven't had to explain anything. But if anyone asked I'd either tell them about the surgery or just say I'm not really hungry. -
First bad food experience!

I've been there. You definitely want to mix your tuna with mayo. The envelopes only have a small amount of water, it's very dry without mayo. -

Currently eating the first veggie burger of my life. It's actually pretty good! Wish I knew what brand it is so I could buy some for myself. My work is having a 4th cookout and I didn't want to get sick on one of the greasy premade burgers, and it's nice to have an option other than a plain hot dog.
