Etharia

I'm in the same boat. I honestly went so far as to try to buy tape worms online but couldn't find any.

After my about 6-8 weeks I was able to meet my protein goals with food alone by eating high protein meats and fishes. By that time, I was also completely sick of protein shakes so I stopped using them altogether. Now, about 10 months out, I have incorporated a premier protein back into my diet occasionally for ease and quickness when it's needed.

I seriously don't think I have restriction anymore. I have to force myself to eat on plan, which is so hard, because if I could do that consistently, I wouldn't have needed the surgery.

Thank you for the responses everyone. I told my surgeon and I am waiting on a referral to an eating disorder clinic in my area.

I used to be bulimic. I thought I was recovered. Then, this week, I started purging when I eat. I'm not overeating, I just make myself sick after eating. I'm worried I'm going to hurt my new stomach. I'm 2 months post-op. I tried to stop but it didn't work. Do you think I'm going to hurt my new stomach?

I think this is what the problem is. I'm not overeating, but I eat my one-two ounces of food and I feel FULL abd it reminds me of when I would binge and it's very triggering.

I am 4 weeks post-op today. I have been having daily headaches, usually starting in the early afternoon and lasting until I fall asleep. Tylenol doesn't help them. I'm getting my water and protein in. I don't know what may be causing them, but it seems to have started after surgery. Anyone have any tips or advice? I don't really want to spend $40 to see my doctor about it since they're not like migraine-bad, but I may need to if they don't stop.

I'm 4 weeks post-op tomorrow and I've been in a stall for 3 weeks, which makes me fear I'm not going to lose any more weight, but I follow a lot of people on Instagram that give me hope that my weight loss isn't done.

I'm 4 weeks post-op tomorrow and walk about a mile a day. My surgeon says to stay at this until about 6 weeks out, when I can add in weights and other exercises.

I take liquid vitamins and they taste just fine.

I read a study on the vitamin patches that Unjury's scientists did that said that the vitamins they claim to deliver were not what tbe vitamin patches were capable of delivering.

I tried to find you on Instagram but I couldn't. My username is weightywonder, feel free to add me.

My surgeon said by 6 weeks he wants me at 800 a day so that surprises me. I haven't made it there yet but I've been on purees. I switch to soft foods today (3 weeks post-op).

I eat about 1-2 ounces of food every 3 hours. I'm 3 weeks post-op today.

I take liquid vitamins, no problems swallowing.

I use Tespo bariatric women's complete liquid vitamins, they're great.

I'm 3 weeks post-op today and today I switched from purees to soft foods. Fish, canned chicken and turkey, ground beef (or turkey if you want), deli meat, soft and shredded cheeses, nut butters, cooked veggies, etc.

Are you on something for fibromyalgia pain like Lyrica? I use that, a tens machine, and tylenol.
