    Best way to introduce eggs into the diet

    Eggs are one of the first things I started eating. I eat the whole egg not just the whites and no problem here. I now like the Just Crack an egg cups. They are a perfect size for breakfast and they fill me up.

    I spewed at a restaurant

    First of all, I am sorry this happened to you....But man that was the funniest thing I have seen here in a long time. From the title to the post.....You put a smile on my face.
  7. >>I had a burrito with salsa Why????. Surgery Date:05/09/2018.....WTF To answer your question...No I can eat and love hot sauce, salsa and spices.
  8. My doctor told me at my first follow up appointment that if I measured my success by the scale I would be disappointed every time. My scale reads 203 pounds and has been there for a couple of weeks now but the size 36 pants that fit when I first got them not too long ago are getting real loose. So just because I can’t see it on the scale doesn’t mean stuff isn’t happening.

    11-15-17. Went great. From what I understand it went better than most. I was off pain med's in 2 days and back to work in a week and the gym in 30 days. I thought I got very good care there and if I had to do it all over I would do it again in a second. I hope you do as well. Good luck and if you have any questions we are all here for you. PS...please don't get mixed up with the people at Smart Dimensions Weight Loss....it will come back to bite you in the ass.

    Kidney stones

    I have had them on and off sense I was in my 20’s. I have an elevated level of calcium in both my blood and urine. I had all the tests and nothing medical going on, just one of those **** happens kind of things. I was taking something but I could not tell you what it was. After my surgery, we retested and I was almost normal. BTW When I got my list of vitamins to take…The calcium supplement was X’ed out in red

    Kidney stones

    I have the same problem as you. My wife had the bypass and that’s what I was going to get. My kidney doctor recommended that I get the sleeve as the bypass would put me at a higher risk of stones. I am 5 months out and no signs of them. Here’s the thing though…As the weight is coming off my calcium level is going down. Not normal and might never be but it was low enough to stop the meds for it
