I just experienced this last week. I ended up at the infusion center getting an iv because i couldn't quit throwing up. Before that however my doctor advised to get apple juice and dilute it by half w water. Alot of times those carbs will break through the ketosis

band to bypass how is everyone finding the weight loss?
cbelhaj posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am a band to bypass patient, my surgery was 05/20/13. My highest weight pre band was 418 lowest weight w the band was 225. My presurgery weight for the bypass was 278. My doctor advised that weight loss would be slower for me than it would be for someone with the bypass as their native surgery. Now at 10 days out I'm down 14 lbs...for any other conversions how are yall finding the weight loss? -

I just had my surgery on the 20th and my doctor put some type of patch behind my lefr ear before surgery to help w sickness and it helped because I didn't feel nauseous once -
So my surgery is scheduled for May 20th. I have pre op and my last drs visit thursday and I'm worried. I was supposed to lose 15 lbs...I'm at 10 and the last 5 are hanging on for dear life. I'm doing 3 shakes w 1 small meal and start the only shakes on monday. Bumping up the exercise routine today..anyone else had this issue?
