    TMI! Blood in stool

    Are you taking iron supplements? Could be that

    How is everyone holding up?

    Homeschooling my two sons and not working. Doing a lot of snacking out of boredom. Trying to find a new normal but it’s been really difficult
  3. I’m just over a year out from bypass and generally have had smooth sailing. However, today I had a Cobb salad for lunch. Not 45 mins later I was running (hobbling) to the restroom, sweating, groaning, clenching my cheeks and praying I’d make it (I did, I’m such a big girl) A few hours after that, my blood sugar tanked and I was shaking, heart racing, dizzy, etc. The only thing I can think is maybe the dressing had loads of sugar/fat in it that I’m not used to. Regardless, it was a gentle (ahem) reminder that my insides still make the rules. If you need me, I’ll be drinking about 60 more Oz of water. What a day...
  4. Very typical, give it a few more days. You’re full of fluids right now

    Is the place a bariatric office or just a general doctor’s Office?

    Need No gym options

    You could take out exercise DVD’s from the library, search YouTube or stream a program
  14. No more Gatorade and track everything.
  15. I told my husband and parents. That’s it. People know that I work out a lot and see a nutritionist
  16. Use the search tool. I’ve come across many stories of women who found they were pregnant after surgery. My surgeon said no babies until 2 years out though, so just keep that in mind.

    Effect on families

    Psychiatric issues would have reared their head regardless. Doesn’t have anything to do with surgery. An addict will find a way
