    I have fallen off the Wagon and struggling to get back on. I have fallen back into old habits. I'm eating candy and drinking soda. Even though it makes me sick to eat it I still go back to it. It just started in the past week I'm just afraid I'm going to lose control again. I've lost almost sixty pounds so far and I don't want to gain it back.

    I have been doing good for a month and then today I fell into an old habit and I ate all day long. It seemed like I was abottomless pit. My son was not feeling well today so we didn't do much today. I don't know what I can do to get this behavior under control. I'm also coming off a 3 pound gain last week. Which I don't understand either. I think it's me building my muscle back from not getting hardly any protein the first 3 weeks. Any thoughts?

    I had trouble with protein intake and liquid intake. After I started my soft solids I found out real quick what could happen if I drank too much within that 30 minute time frame. Everything came back up. Sorry if tmi. The drinking before is not as big of a concern but they want you to eat your calories and not drink them. If you drink too much before a meal then you won't eat as much. Good luck to you.

      I hear you girl! In my family we can mess with and talk about each other, but nobody else can do it or there is a price to be paid!

    Had a great night with family for my mom's birthday. I haven't laughed this hard in a long time. Hope you had a wonderful time Edna Sloan. I love you so much. Happy birthday.

    I'm almost 3 weeks post op and I have no desire to eat(drink) hardly anything. I don't know if this is normal or not. If I'm busy I forget to even drink my water. Any suggestions?
  9. hpendleton0126
    I'm two weeks post op and I'm burned out on the protein shakes I was drinking and now I've tried gnc brand of powder and I can't stand the taste it gives off and the way it changes the taste of the food I put it in. If tried it in soups and smoothies. I was hoping that the taste of the fruit would mask the taste of the powder but nope. Now I'm stuck I don't know what else to do. My Dr has me on a full liquid diet for one more week.

    Well go me. Down 40 lbs total. I'm so proud of myself. But I still have a long way to go.

    Very nauseated today. I can't seem to drink anything without getting nauseated. Not even water.

      i don't have a sleeve but there is medication that will help with nausea. call your doctor.

  13. hpendleton0126
    I bought those too. I tried the apple one today and I am feeling really nauseous now. The after taste to me is getting me.

    sleep?

    hpendleton0126 posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    Hey folks, I am 1 week out and I'm having trouble sleeping. I go lay down no later that 10pm but can't fall asleep. The other night I was up until around 2am and last night I was up until 4am. I don't really know what to do about it. Any suggestions?
  15. hpendleton0126
    What is a good brand of unflavored protein powder and where can I find it? I'm only a week out and struggling to get my protein in. I need different variety because the ones I had before surgery are really wearing thin.

    sleep?

    hpendleton0126 replied to hpendleton0126's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    I had surgery on the 19th also. This just started a couple days ago for me. I try to take naps when my son does but I usually can't go to sleep then either.

    I love peanut butter but I have no idea if it's OK to have right now. I like getting just a spoonful as a snack but I'm afraid to eat it right now. Any ideas or suggestions?

    OK I just have to say I have the best family in the world. I love spending time with them. The presents this year were awesome and so thoughtful. I love you all to the moon and back. Was with Dad and Kay Madison and Riley and

    Thank you. I was doing really good the most part but the last couple of days I guess I've just been mourning food because I see everyone around me eating my favorite foods. Hopefully it will pass. Congrats to you also. Btw what did you use to get your protein in?

    I love peanut butter.

    hpendleton0126 replied to hpendleton0126's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    Just a week but I'm having a hard time kicking the craving. I just didn't really see how it would hurt.
  22. hpendleton0126
    I'm only 3 days out of surgery and the pain seems to be getting worse. How long should I expect to be in pain? I do some walking. I seem to sleep all the time though.
  23. hpendleton0126

    How long were you sore after surgery?

    hpendleton0126 replied to hpendleton0126's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    Thank you everyone for the comments they have helped. I have talked to my Dr and he believes that my stitch that is holding my abdomen closed has came through a couple of layers and that is why I'm in so much pain. They told me to just take it easy and keep up on my pain meds.
  24. hpendleton0126

    Well today I'm very sore especially on the left side where they took my stomach out. It is swollen and making it difficult get around. The pain meds I have just put me to sleep. Hopefully it will get better soon.

      It will ..just hang in there. I am 14 days out and my body feels like I never had surgery.. Except for eating certain foods that I can not handle, even though it on my list of food I can gave after two weeks.
