I'm so unsure of what I want! Help!
Thecloude1 replied to jtellechea001's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had RNY almost 7 months ago....I chose it because I already had bad heartburn and was told the sleeve could make it worse....Oh and I have only had one episode of mild dumping early on...I ate some creamy peanut butter and I think I ate it too fast! Best of luck to you in whichever procedure you chose! [emoji3][emoji106] Hw: 324 SW: 295 CW: 225 ....only one more pound to 100 lbs lost since I began this journey last Oct. -
Do You Consider Children (Or Future Children) When Considering Weight Loss Surgery?
Thecloude1 replied to Alex Brecher's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
My 27 yr old son was a big part of my decision....He lives close to the Colorado Rockies and he really wants to hike with his Mom! I will be attempting this with him in a couple weeks [emoji3][emoji106] -
Beautiful! WTG!!

Post op regrets topics - not popular
Thecloude1 replied to GinaCampbell's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
If only we could undo some of the decisions we have made in the past....oh wait! If we could do that then we wouldn't be obese in the first place leading us to our decisions of WLS! [emoji3][emoji106] Good luck Gina....I hope they get this all figured out for you so you can resume a somewhat normal life [emoji3] -
Let's talk meat post op RNY. Please
Thecloude1 replied to LisaMergs's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
I'm 6.5 months out RNY and I can eat most meats....shrimp still doesn't sit "good" but not bad either....I eat mostly chicken, steak, ground beef and pork [emoji3][emoji106] -

What a feeling!! I'm not quite there yet.....but it won't be long! [emoji3][emoji106] I just bought a pair of Jennifer Lopez boyfriend jeans at Kohls in a size 20...,I'm currently in a 22 in most brands....I brought them home and they fit perfectly! Love love love!! I always hated shopping before... I'm afraid there has been a clothes monster created via WLS! Btw ladies and gents...Kohls has some awesome deals on their clearance racks right now!

Share Your Defensive Snack Strategy!
Thecloude1 replied to Alex Brecher's topic in Food and Nutrition
My go to snacks are ....cheese, jerky, almonds, yogurt, berries and premier protein shakes....having had gastric bypass I have to eat a snack or two a day or I won't get in all my protein [emoji107]???? -
Did you ever have second thoughts?
Thecloude1 replied to ALittleMe0914's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Never gave it a second thought..wasn't nervous at all...once I decided to do it...that was it...I was at peace with my decision...I will admit the first few months post op were challenging and I had my moments of regrets but that soon faded and so far I'm happy with my decision ...6 months post op gastric bypass down 68 lbs since surgery and 98 lbs since the start of the process [emoji3][emoji106] -
I went to Kohls the other day and was able to find clothes I could wear on the clearance racks!! I got 2 pair of jeans and 5 shirts for $70... That might buy a shirt and pair of pants at Lane Bryant if you are lucky! [emoji12][emoji106]

Thecloude1 replied to Dub's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I was given the ok to try carbonated beverages last week. I'm in no hurry to try it, especially after reading your experience at 10 months out! Thank you [emoji3][emoji106] -

How often do you "eat"?
Thecloude1 replied to dustyd's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Don't worry if you don't reach these goals for the first couple of weeks....mainly stay hydrated and get in the protein you can. It gets easier with each passing week! [emoji3][emoji106] It sounds like you are doing fine! Good luck! -
Looking good! [emoji3][emoji106]

I couldn't stand the Isopure or Syntrax nectar..yuck [emoji107]???? I relied on Unjury chicken soup ...it was the only clear liquid protein I could stomach.
