I feel like I've stretched my pouch or something. RNY 5/1/15 and I feel like I am eating such huge portions some days (for example, if I wanted to, I could eat half a sandwich). However today I managed to eat about 6 shrimp for dinner and that was it. Any suggestions as to what's going on with Oscar the Pouch?!

What did you wear at the hospital?
hellohealthy replied to lsmith715's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I wore a hospital gown and slippers. When I left the hospital I wore a loose pair of pants and a tank top with a zip up hoodie -
So I'm 2 months post op. I still have very hard BMs to the point where there's blood on the toilet paper when I wipe. Any suggestions to make them softer? They are usually quite painful. I'm getting in water...

What will I NEED after surgery?
hellohealthy replied to Beauty+5's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
Literally the only things I needed in the hospital were my phone and Chapstick! I used a pillow for the ride home too. -
I didn't weigh in until my first post op appointment. That really helped me.

Can't keep water down suddenly
hellohealthy replied to meyouus's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
If I don't take my Prilosec I can't keep anything down. But for sure call your surgeon! -
How long til all your gas was gone? I'm 4 days post op and walking as much as I can tolerate!

How many carbs a day are you eating? I'm curious to see what everyone else's NUTs have said. Mine said 75-100 g a day. I'm 6 weeks out. I often fall below, however.
-
Nope, carbs. I definitely eat that much protein (75 on average) but my carbs are usually around 50. Was just curious as to what others were eating per their NUT.

I have a Jawbone UP 24 and a Fitbit charge hr. I like the jawbone app better but like the technology of the Fitbit more.

Stomach pain as soon as I start eating

Are you chewing well enough? That happens if I forget to chew to mush. -
When did you start to feel like yourself again?
hellohealthy replied to RuxieGirl's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm about 5 weeks out after surgery and still get tired easily but I feel my energy levels increasing! -
I was told decaf was fine!

Postop Day 2: gas pain and NSV

As hard as it may be, the more you walk the faster the gas goes away!! -
Your scale or only the Dr.'s scale?
hellohealthy replied to SkinnyDown's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I weigh once per week at home. -
Yes. I was fine with it!

My incisions are barely healed. I'll be 4 weeks post op tomorrow. I am this week only beginning to bend over, lift a bit more, sleep on my stomach, etc. totally normal! -
