Back issues?

I've questioned the same thing. Even my hips hurt. -
I had to stop latuda because you have to eat a large meal and obviously that's not gonna happen. I switched to something else, my thyroid medicine was decreased. I'm not on BP or cholesterol medicine anymore.

Swooshing effect in ears that coincides with heartbeat and pulse
pattycaketoo replied to SleeveDreamer's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have this sometimes too. Especially when I lay down. -
Has anyone ever heard of this? What do you think?

To me it doesn't, it tastes like cheese from the Parmesan cheese. -

I love them. They are the perfect size and help get that protein in. If you have a Kroger store near you they sell them there and are a 2 serving size. -
I'm in Rosenberg. I had the bypass in November 2016. Best thing I have ever did for myself. Just had my 6 month check up and I'm good for a year. No complications at all!

You can always let it go flat. That's what I do with diet ginger ale to get the flavor. No judging here [emoji4] -
Go for it! It'll probably only take a bite or two and you'll be finished.

Can someone tell me what prescriptions are prescribed post op gastric bypass?
pattycaketoo replied to BgR72's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was sent home with two weeks of lovenox. Well I got it three days before surgery but it simple and no pain at all. Not all people get it though, totally up to your surgeon. -
Why were you put on that? That's a harsh medicine, never heard of being put on it before surgery.

Can I have this?
pattycaketoo replied to Vsgneeded's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I wouldn't, it has fructose and sugar. Those might cause dumping and that's no fun. -

Real good pizza company has an awesome high carb pizza with only 4 grams of carb. The crust is made with chicken. Kroger sells them or you can use the store locator on the website. -
Very fearful of being nauseated

As I was getting prepped I had a nausea patch applied behind ear. It worked, not once did I get sick. -
Timeline confusion
pattycaketoo replied to soreadyforachange's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have that insurance as well. The dr supervised diet is with a NUT once a month for 6 months. Do not gain any weight or they will make you do another month. I gained 3 pounds and did 7 months. They are strict on that. -
My NUT and dr said decaf is fine.

I'm excited about flying too!!!

i received info from NUT to use light/lowfat mayo. Everybody gets different info and have their own opinion. Did you not get told to follow a high protein low fat diet?
