Best thing for me was B12.

You look great - what a difference 6 months makes! The thing I feel most guilty about is not exercising enough. The thing I feel most proud about is making good nutrition a priority - 71 pounds in 6 months!

How Will This Thanksgiving Be Your Healthiest Yet?
waterwoman replied to Alex Brecher's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I am taking care of myself this holidays - not participating in the family Thanksgiving drama. Instead, going on a short trip with a good friend. For Christmas, I will again excuse myself from most of the family drama, and instead be grateful for the many blessings in my life. -
Congratulations! Getting the Gastric Bypass was one of the best decisions of my life.

3 month post op, results... please share
waterwoman replied to jccanada's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm 3 months out and down 49 pounds from 240 to 191. I'm 5'8" and my goal is 140. My surgeon didn't require the liver shrink diet - so all the weight was lost after surgery. -

Is Eating Fruit Like Eating Candy?
waterwoman replied to Elizabeth Anderson RD's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Magazine
I eat 3 frozen grapes every night instead of ice cream. I feel indulged and have still lost 45 pounds since surgery on June 7. -
For the liquid stage I relied on Water, sugar free Jello and broth. For puree I used organic baby food and blended oatmeal with a little milk. Because I was feeding a very small stomach, I didn't need to purchase much. Good luck on your surgery and your recovery. Having the bypass has been an very good experience for me.

So far, the only problem I'm having is with Bariatric Pal

I have fund Munro to be an excellent brand for dressier flats. I also use Nordstrom because they carry so many sizes and widths. Congratulations on your success and courage!

Thank you, James -
I am 64 and had gastric bypass surgery June 7. Had complications and a 2nd surgery on June 20. I have not felt the "up and down" hormonal craziness that I remember from menopause. I have had minor increases in sexual desire - never a bad thing and a little trouble sleeping.

My surgeon started me at 1/4 cup per meal - growing slowly to 1/2 cup per meal.

I didn't like Greek yoghurt before surgery, and now I am hooked on Oikos Triple Zero Greek Yogurt (in black container) vanilla.
