    4 month follow up yesterday (03/10/17)

    Thank you [emoji4]
  2. I had the bypass on 11/14/16 with zero complications. I'm so happy for that! I had my levels checked for the first time, the dr said everything came back on the higher end and that's great. On surgery day I was 341 as of yesterday I am 284. That's a total of 57 pounds gone! I lost the total weight of my granddaughter!!! I feel amazing. I have stopped taking BP meds along with cholesterol meds. I am no longer pre diabetic as my A1C is 5.3. I'm so happy I did this. This was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Very proud of myself and my family are amazed at the changes in not only my looks but my attitude.

    Cravings

    Drinking water helps. Use crystal light if something similar. Gives you different flavors.

    Lentil soup with tomato

    Tomatoes are acidic and may be hard on the healing stomach. Plus if it has the peeling on and had seeds in it, those are hard to digest as well.

    Sleeping medicine post-op

    I take the same medication. I had bypass on 11/14/16 and have lost 57 pounds so far. No problems with weight gain.

    For 25 grams of protein and 4 carbs I'm good with it. They have different kinds also.

    Light Headed

    If you take BP meds you may be ready for a change or either stopping it. I experienced the same thing and it was my BP dropping to much.

    Stomach rumbles

    I had RNY in Nov 2016. I also had the rumbling and gurgling as you. Sometimes it happens now. It's just our new stomachs digesting. We hear it because it's so much smaller then what we are used too.
