    Foods you can no longer tolerate

    I have not had any real milk. I wasn't a big milk drinker before surgery. I now use Fairlife milk if recipes call for it, or on oatmeal, it tastes like real milk to me!
  7. I just averaged my calories for the last six days and I average about 714 calories a day. I started at 430 on the 2nd and yesterday I got 730 calories.
  8. I am not really sure of the size, but I have my three month follow-up next Tuesday and will ask then. I don't have a lot of sensation in my pouch, I rely on slow eating and a running nose to help me know I am full.

    This has become too much! PLEASE HELP

    I find it difficult as it is just my husband I at this point and he weighs in at a whopping 135 and I usually have to make what he wants and just have the protein myself. Next month my son is moving back in with us and he will eat anything I put in front of him, in fact he could benefit from this surgery.

    Water retention?

    I gained 15 pounds of fluid my 4 days in the hospital, it took 2 weeks to come off, it was frustrating, but once it was over, everything was fine!
  12. I woke up from surgery to find out that I had no gallbladder and no stomach. They only left enough stomach to make a small pouch. I feel good now though.

    What do you value most about yourself? I value myself as I am an empath, I can get along with anyone and see the good in people. I will create a bucket list today!

    I have never had it myself, but had a friend with it after a big abdominal surgery. I would make sure to bring this up with your Dr. to ease your mind.

    My hubby and I were in traffic today and I saw someone driving with their window down and I was like, Oh yeah! So I rolled my window 😃 I think I am doing these out of order.

    Resistance bands anyone?? Help!?

    Congrats on the 100 pounds lost! That's awesome! As far as bands go I have used some in physical therapy over the years, but not enough to firm up.
