Saw neuro doctor yesterday and am scheduled for EMG Monday from my back to my toes Joy -
Your told after surgery at least by my surgeon and nutritionist to journal every piece of food you put in your mouth .. I did not experience a stall I'm actually worried I'm losing too much since October started at 238 and now 145.. At doctor now But journal every thing and change up your exercise routine that tricks the body

Sleeved yesterday
lmaher718 replied to Ready set go!'s topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am confused as to you guys being allowed Protein Shakes right after surgery.. I was clear liquids first week.. Full liquids second week.. Purred food third week.. Soft foods fourth week and then started regular food I think the Protein shake is too thick straight out of surgery and that's the problem -
FOOT DROP... HELP Anyone experience this
lmaher718 replied to lmaher718's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yeah I have to agree.. I try not to cross my legs at work.. But go to neurologist on Thursday I read a lot on the weight loss and bariatric surgery.. Seems common.. Everyone at work thinks I lost too much weight too fast.. I went from a size 16 to a size 2.. And depends on brand size 0 pants.. I don't know but it's driving me insane -

MRI showed annular tear on L5-S1 but my doctor said that is not significant to give foot drop but when I google it says it.. But when I google foot drop after bariatric surgery there is a bunch of stuff.. Back doctor said follow up with neuro and will most likely do EMG.. -

Anything obstacles you came to and how it was resolved.. I have learned so much from this app and everyone's ideas Lauren ????????????

Yes it takes a very small bite to upset the stomach on dairy products.. Feel like I'm 8months preggo.. So far today I have had NO dairy and feel ok.. So I think that's the culprit.. I do take protonix once a day..

I was sleeved on Oct 1.. I am having a hard time in real food with the fact of feeling bloated all the time I am fine when I don't eat.. I think dairy is a big culprit.. I'm going back to some Soups for a bit.. And my Protein shake smoothies Anyone else have issue with dairy?? Lauren
