What is the one food you cannot eat since bypass?
Mindy78 replied to melliecat's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
I have a hard time w chicken eggs and pork. I can eat tiny bits and don't get ill but it feels stuck in my throat not my pouch just a weird feeling after a bite Oh and tuna is difficult as well. I can eat maybe an ounce of the above. Haven't tried nuts only 7 weeks out. I love that I eat so little though Sent from my 5054N using the BariatricPal App -

Enjoying my first thanksgiving at my fiance's family. So excited. I don't even have to cook this year. I'm taking pie for them but it's pecan pie I can't eat and not crazy about anyways. Turkey and green Beans are what I'm having for dinner. Sent from my 5054N using the BariatricPal App -

I am 7 weeks out never hungry and full after two bites. I measure out my food and eat then 20 min later eat 2 bites. I know its not what we should do, but I'm worried if I don't get that if I don't get Protein in my hair will fall out. Normally I wouldn't care but I'm getting married in February Sent from my 5054N using the BariatricPal App

Happy, sad, exhausted, totally emotional rant I fuess
Mindy78 posted a topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
I have always had hormone issues, low low progesterone. Never was that emotional "girly girl"but lately. Had a partial hysterectomy in June stage 2 cancer, but rny bypass was already in the works, pre op classes and monthly weight loss visits. Got the go ahead from cancer specialist in Sept. Rny October 3rd. I have lost 60 lbs total happy about that. No longer is my life food centered. Lately I am so hormonal though. I am over sensitive and cry at the drop of a hat. Not sad just goofy stuff. It's like I see me thinking crying about this is stupid yet cry anyways. Movies, things people say even positive, my favorite skirt fell off, still not sure if that was happy or sad tears. Exhausted. Even at my high weight 5 years ago 332. I could paint a room, cut the grass, active stuff not get tired, get lazy, but not tired. Now naps sound like the most wonderful thing in the world. Never was a nap person either. Is this what normal is? Please tell me it gets better? Sent from my 5054N using the BariatricPal App -
