    Is my bypass working?

    I am 7 weeks out and can eat two scrambled eggs without feeling stuffed...really frustrating cuz I want that full feeling. We just have to be that more diligent in weighing our food. I also notice that I sometimes get full on 1 ounce of food depending on the time if day...good luck to all of us!

    Help!????

    How do you guys get your water in?? I can't drink 1/2 an hour before meals and I have to wait 1/2 an hour after meals. It takes me so long to eat that sometimes I finish eating breakfast and it's already lunch time. Also if I drink a shake can I drink water right after...Tips please.

    Fast eater????

    I had RNY, Djmohr thanks for your information. My papers say two tablespoons every 15 minutes. I am just eating with a baby spoon for now. ????
  6. Anyone else a fast eater? I am 14 days post op and just started puree/blended foods. My papers say it should take me 90 minutes to eat but really it only takes me half an hour at most....I need to slow down. Any pointers would help.
  7. I'm ten days post op and am experiencing the same thing you are. I can tolerate everything so far and I dont get that full feeling that I thought I would. We are on liquid and mush, maybe when we start real food we will get that full feeling.

    Hungryyyyyyyy

    I'm 9 days post op and on full fluids. I can eat 1/4 cup of cottage cheese without getting that full feeling. Is that normal? I am hungry as well. I can't wait to move on to pureed food as I am so limited right now.

    When did you start doing poop?

    I had diarrhea 1 day post op and now 5 days post op had a great bowel movement. I think everyone is different I have been pretty regular all my life.

    Miss Real Food! [emoji23]

    I am on full liquids and I am allowed tomate soup, I am 5 days post op. What I don't get is I can have hot cereal and oatmeal isn't that more pureed....I just want these two weeks to pass so I can start eating semi normal again. I find every surgeon has different advice.

    Pre-op fears

    Hello, I am having surgery on Aug 12th and I am so scared, I hope I am making the right decision. I have high blood pressure and thats about it, I have never been tested for sleep apnea and my Physician feels I dont need to so I am a little worried about surgery. What if I have it and they preform surgery on me?
  15. Hello, I meet with my surgeon on Feb 09 2016 and I am hoping that I will have the choice of getting the Sleeve over the bypass.
