I just had my RNY gastric bypass on 9/17/15. I would really like a buddy to share journeys with. The more the merrier!!

Thanks. I will try to find the premiere protein. I got really sick yesterday afternoon. I was nauseated and had a stomachache. I took my pain med and slept for four hours. I haven't had to take my pain med since I got home from the hospital. That was the only negative thing that has happened so far. I took my blood pressure med and antidepressant crushed for the first time yesterday also. Maybe that was the problem. -

Thanks. I really needed that. I have isopure but it tastes so sweet. I guess I'll go back to that. It was keeping me full. -

I am post op day six today of my gastric bypass. Is it normal to crave what my family is eating this early? When reading about other post ops they all say that they don't want food. I'm drinking carnation instant breakfast and Special K shakes for my protein. I also eat yogurt and take my vitamins but sometimes I get so hungry in the evenings. This is somewhat harder than I thought. I'm so scared of messing up. -
My husband tried to talk me out of having surgery saying that he loves me the way I am. I first started this journey with the seminar on 12/3/14. I just had my surgery on 9/17/15. Within this time frame my husband has come to understand that I know he loves me but I am doing this to make myself a better person for me. I don't feel that your husband is not being supportive. I feel that he loves you and is afraid of you having surgery because he fears that something may happen and he doesn't want it to be his fault in any way if something happens. My husband has been very supportive during and after the procedure since he saw how bad I wanted this. He stayed over night with me the day of surgery and took off from work to help take care of me. Hang in there. Everyone will come around and do what you need them to. Don't worry. I thought I'd have no support but the day of surgery I had too many people. Lol. They had to take turns coming back to see me.

I meant watching tv. The commercials are mostly about food and all TV shows and movies they are always eating. Ugh -

Thanks guys. I'm really nervous about the process. I'm not really in pain. Just dealing with food issues. It's so weird when my family eats and I'm not involved. It now seems that everything involves food. Socialization, watching, etc.
