I ate a couple ritz crackers topped with tuna salad and it went fine for me...Townhouse are similar I would think...btw...I had gastric bypass not the sleeve...not sure if that makes a difference...lol

I was told saltines or club crackers paired with protein ....I would say wheat thins are a whole grain type cracker

I am a reality tv junkie....Survivor, Big Brother, Gold Rush, Alaskan Bush People, Mountain Men, Yukon Men, The Last Alaskans, Alaska The Last Frontier, Alone, My 600 lb Life...I'm sure I forgot some! [emoji12] Love them all!!

Thanks!! [emoji2][emoji106]

It's that phase post op....the dreaded hair loss! I really need a cut and color....Just wondering if anyone knows if it's ok to color my hair during this process?

I'm 4 months out and in the same boat....I've learned that you just have to ride it out and let your body play "catch up" .. It's very frustrating I know!

It truly sucks!! [emoji12]

Good luck! [emoji106]

That's a good question! While I would love to lose more each month...that would be kind of freaky! I'm 4 months post op and have lost 55lbs. I've had many stalls which is frustrating but it's part of the process....my Dr told me it's our body's way of "catching up" with the rapid weightloss ...whatever that means...lol

I didn't tell my best friend I was having WLS until a few weeks after because I was afraid she would try to talk me out of it. I was pleasantly surprised how supportive she was after I told her. Her brother had RNY about 10 yrs ago and he has gained a lot of weight back, so I expected a lecture. I haven't had any "bad" feedback from friends or family yet and I'm 4 months Post op [emoji2]

Have a safe and happy Fourth of July weekend!!! [emoji3]

I had RNY 4 months ago...unfortunately I do not dump from eating sweets ....I haven't had ice cream, cake, doughnuts etc but I have eaten small amounts of chocolate and hard candy without any ill affects . It is what it is and I need to learn to deal with it in order to be successful...I have lost 55 lbs since surgery and 85lbs total [emoji2]. Slow and steady wins the race!

I had gastric bypass in Feb...so I'm a little over 4 months PO....I too was afraid of dumping but I knew at the very beginning of this process that I wanted the gastric bypass. I think I had one minor dumping episode early on...I ate some creamy peanut butter too fast and I was uncomfortable for about half an hour....since then I have avoided peanut butter! I haven't vomited or had instant diarrhea from eating anything yet....I don't seem to have an issue with small amounts of sugar. I have only eaten whole wheat bread toasted...too afraid to try the really bad stuff like white bread, cake and doughnuts! I hope I continue to have that fear...lol...Good luck choosing!! Btw...my reason for choosing RNY was because of the long term data available , helps with heartburn ,and that you are suppose to lose a bit more then with the sleeve.

My friend's Mother In Law told her that the reason she is fat is because she holds in her farts! So fart yourself skinny my friends! [emoji12][emoji12]

Good luck! I'd go in too...something is not right [emoji53]

I'm having trouble with Calcium....the major problem is it constipates me so bad [emoji20]. I have trouble taking it in pill form...even the ones that say petite get stuck or hurt going down. Another problem is the amount of pills you have to take to get the recommended amount!! I don't want to take 10 pills a day just in calcium, that could get Very expensive!! Right now I'm taking the Opurity chewable...that's 5 a day. Thanks in advance for any advice/input. [emoji3]

Tim McGraw Humble and Kind You know there's a light that glows by the front door Don't forget the key's under the mat Childhood stars shine, always stay humble and kind Go to church 'cause your momma says to Visit grandpa every chance that you can It won't be wasted time Always stay humble and kind Hold the door, say please, say thank you Don't steal, don't cheat, and don't lie I know you got mountains to climb but Always stay humble and kind When the dreams you're dreamin' come to you When the work you put in is realized Let yourself feel the pride but Always stay humble and kind Don't expect a free ride from no one Don't hold a grudge or a chip and here's why Bitterness keeps you from flyin' Always stay humble and kind Know the difference between sleeping with someone And sleeping with someone you love "I love you" ain't no pick up line so Always stay humble and kind Hold the door, say please, say thank you Don't steal, don't cheat, and don't lie I know you got mountains to climb but Always stay humble and kind When those dreams you're dreamin' come to you When the work you put in is realized Let yourself feel the pride but Always stay humble and kind When it's hot, eat a root beer popsicle Shut off the AC and roll the windows down Let that summer sun shine Always stay humble and kind Don't take for granted the love this life gives you When you get where you're goin Don't forget turn back around And help the next one in line Always stay humble and kind

I tried the lemon...Nasty nasty stuff IMO

Yes you will!! I'm 4 months out gastric bypass and I can eat most things...just in small amounts. I did the low carb thing a couple different times in my life and while yes I lost weight....I would get sick of just meat and vegetables which lead to me going off plan , thus regaining the weight....I chose WLS so I have a tool to help me and be able to eat all healthy foods...lean protein, veggies, fruits and whole grains [emoji3] All of these things are on my plan. Good luck!

@Fredbear....just saying this could be the case....I have an awesome Bariatric team [emoji7]

I think some people don't want to bother their bariatric team for what they feel is a minor issue.

Sorry you had a bad day....shame on your husband!
