    Help Craving Texture and to chew food

    JELLO. Seriously. You can chew it. It was a huge thing for me. Maybe try chewing gum too? And yes to sf popsicles.

    Bypass surgery date July 17th

    I had mine at Rose! Who's your surgeon? Mine was Dr. Snyder. Have you thought about attending the support group?

    Trip during purée - need food tips

    Honestly, a cooler full of shakes is your best bet. You could try baby food, though. I know purée is tough and I grew to hate it toward the end, but shakes are your lifeblood.

    Weightloss...

    I'm not losing very fast either. I look at all these people who got their surgery around the same time as me and are at 40-45 lbs lost and I wonder what I did wrong to lose only 28 in the same time. It's disheartening.
  12. You're way ahead of me... I also had my surgery on May 8th and I've lost only 28 lbs (started at 323). Don't stress, you're losing fast!

    What should i have prepped at home after surgery

    Dry mouth spray IN the hospital. #1 thing I needed. At home you just need clear liquids in your kitchen. I liked what someone said above about making sure all errands and chores are already done. My dad stayed with me a couple nights after I got home but I was pretty mobile.

    Birth control? for the ladies

    I was told no bc pills period after surgery. I have the Mirena iud and it's great so far. I've never had kids or gotten pregnant and my dr suggested it to me.

    Free soups!

    Lexington1020 called them first, so she has first dibs. Pigluva, you're next in line unless she agrees to share them (you guys determine who gets what in that case).

    Hospital stay for Gastric Bypass?

    2 nights, three days.
  22. Do you still dump? How do you eat? Still losing? How hard is maintaining? I have a ton of questions and was hoping to hear from long term post-op people about what eating and maintaining weight is like 2, 5, 10+ years later. Thanks!
