Thanks for your help. I have done pretty good with what I take. A multi, b-12, vitamin d, biotin, iron and calcium. I don't take iron like I should. I tend to forget. All my levels test out great I was just wondering what all everyone else has to take:)

Nervous about follow-up Gallbladder surgery
jeaniek replied to Padraigm613's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
I had RNY July 23 2014. Everything was going well and then I was having a lot of pain in my abdomen. Long story short he couldn't find anything so he wanted to do Exploratory And look so I did, it was twisted bowels and a lot of scar tissue. He fixed me up and I felt much better. It was Due to losing weight so fast. So everything went well and then this month I had a gallbladder attack, very painful had to go back in and have it removed. So I have had 3 yes 3 laparoscopic surgeries in a year. I feel great. I am in pretty good shape I think but it has not been a problem for me. I just make sure to take my vitamins and exercise to keep strong. I wish you lots of luck. Starting weight 277 Surgery weight 266 Currently 169 -
Had RNY July 13 2014 almost a year out. Im very happy. I have not been losing anymore weight at all for a few months. I really want to lose about 10 more pounds. Any ideas on how to jump start losing again? I walk at least 5 days a week about 4 miles. I could do better on my diet. Ideas??

I have slacked off with my diet and water intake. Today is the day I am getting back in control. Now with that said I haven't done that bad but I will not go backwards. We work way to hard. I like the way I feel. I like the things I can do now! Forward on!!! ☺️

Good luck! Best thing you can do for yourself ! I'm thankful. Walk as much as you can. Drink water

Wow! My rny gastric bypass was 7/23/14. I have done great except I have had these same pains on my left side. Went in because my dr thought it was a obstruction he cleaned up scar tissue and made sure everything was good. guess what I'm still having these pains. It's not daily but it's pretty often. It last a while everything is good and then it hits and I double over in pain. It hurts to walk or move. Is this the same signs you had ? Please keep me posted I have a ton of questions now :/

I had the Mirena IUD done. It will last 5 years. No problems so far. I don't have a period no weight gain for me. Everything seems to be good. I have had it for 3 months now.

So I am 6 months out. Everything has been going well but now all the sudden I can't sleep. I don't even know if there is something I can take over the counter to help.

Thank you! I will be getting some tomorrow! Good grief I'm not even tired at all!

July friends I need help. Rny gastric bypass. Start wt 276. Surgery wt 246 today wt 187. Total loss 89 pounds. I had surgery july 23. I am really proud of myself but I'm stalled for a month now. I would love to drop at least 20 more pounds, if I don't it IS ok because my goal was 180 to 190( the dr set it) I know it's not even my 6 month mark yet . I know I have not done everything by the book.I feel hungry all the sudden. I'm not sure if this is in my head or if I'm hungry. If I have stretched my pouch or can you do that? I have read so many things. I'm thinking I should maybe go back to protein shakes once or twice A day to see if I can jump start a loss again. Also I have read where some people can't tolerate any sugar. Is it weird that I can. Not a lot but I can eat a little. I did over the holidays. I'm not going to beat myself up I'm going to get back on track and become the me that I love. I'm guessing I have the winter time blues and stress. This was my first Christmas without my dad. I lost him in August and he was a big cheerleader for me. Wow in all over the place here. I just need some ideas and thoughts. Help me get back on track ! I

Anyone else fighting plantar fasciitis?
jeaniek replied to Larly109's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My dr said I can't have a steroid shot. It would cause ulcers. ???? she said unless it goes into the joint directly. -
