Issues with my eye sight and glasses since I no longer have diabetes
Karlnjax posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Before my RNY I had very bad diabetes and had a different Rx. for my eye glasses. My glasses that I had made when I had real bad issues with my diabetes are not working so well now since I no longer take the meds for it and no longer have sugar problems. I am wearing a pair of glasses I had made before I really had any problems with diabetes. So it seems like my vision has gotten better since I don't have sugar issues anymore ????... Has anyone else experienced this problem? -
Ok y'all I found a frozen container of some amazing homemade spaghetti sauce in my other freezer. Now that I don't like to eat pasta due to my new life with my RNY. What suggestion do you all have that I can make with my sauce?? Thanks for your comments and suggestions in advance.

My doctor told me to get started on something called Probiotics. One a day for two weeks he said it should clear it up? Anyone else with this issue or have tried Probiotics? -

I had my RNY done on 8/10/15 and as of yesterday I am down 100 and feeling AMAZING!!! I only have about 45 more to go and my question is how does our body or system know it's time to stop losing more weight? It's coming off so fast it's almost scary not knowing if it's going to stop when I need it to?

Funny story about Aetna & Hospital Bill
Karlnjax posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
So I had my RNY done in 8/10/15 and due to a couple of complications I was in ICU longer and my hospital bill came in at $176,870.00. So now Aetna contacts me and asked if I had any other insurances they might be able to share the cost with? I said NOPE just you sweet people at Aetna LOL. -

I have started a new love for black Beans, chili & anything that's ground with beans and Soups. Does anyone see any issues with this way of eating? Also please keep in mind the max I will eat is maybe a 1/4 to 1/2. I have no desire for steak, chick pieces, or anything that I can chew up really really small. Sounds like my RNY is working great cause my taste has for sure changed for the good! Anyone else finding they are similar to my info above? Thanks y'all ????????

@@GAWildKat that's what I am going to do tomorrow is reach out to my doctor and ask him.
