I know everyone's probably going to kill me but I also haven't had a Protein drink/ shake since last month. I keep worrying that if I have too many calories-- from the protein-- it won't go as fast or not at all. I know it's crazy. And probably wrong don't yell ????

Hi guys! One of my favorite things ever is hot sauce I don't know if I'm allowed to have it yet I'm about 3 months post op. Just wondering what everyone's experience with spicy food was especially hot sauce! And when you started having it? Thanks! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I was allowed salad 6 weeks post op and I was just like you craving during the phases. I'm able to eat salad pretty well I'm just full after a couple of bites. Make sure you don't take big bites of lettuce because it will cause discomfort.. At least it did for me, but other than that I have nothing else to report! Good luck!

Good luck!! You'll do great. Keep us posted! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I don't have those guidelines either.. I'm allowed to have Pasta and rice and bread just was told not to make a habit of it to eat it everyday. I think it's normal that you took a break, I always do that and it's good you finished the meal. Because you train so severely, it's normal for you to have a higher calorie intake/eat more because you're working out all the time no? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Hi all. I'm about 6 weeks post op just finished the 3 phases as of this week. I feel like ever since I was able to eat anything, my appetite increased. Now, I'm not saying I can eat like how I did before surgery, but earlier I wasn't able to eat a lot and was rarely hungry, and now I actually find myself looking through the fridge. I don't know what to do am I doing something wrong? I definitely don't overeat but I'm just nervous that I stretched my stomach or something (lol I know it's not really possible) or am I just feeling like I'm eating a lot but not? I don't know. Looking forward to hearing from you guys thanks! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thanks guys! I started logging and it actually really helped. I just don't know what my calorie intake should be when I'm not on any phase diet. Before I was getting about 300-500 and now I'm about the same but I don't know what goal I should set for calories. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I had surgery in New Jersey... Was covered by insurance but the cost was 39,000. I can't believe you heard it was less. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I haven't read anything about this so I just made a new topic! Does anyone else hiccup non stop after eating or drinking?? Without fail, every time I eat I hiccup for a couple of minutes, every time I drink I hiccup again. I don't know if it's just me. looking forward to responses!

I lost 27 lbs and I'm a little under a month Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm day 14.. Basically having the same problem as you! They say to eat 4 oz but I can't even make it to 2 because I'm soooo full. But I think you're supposed to eat slowly and span it out within a half hour so you could get that food in. And as for the drinking, idk what to do either!
