Tired of Questions...need some reasons for weight loss
NerdySongBird replied to stacer12's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
1. I wear a shock bracelet that pings me everytime I try to eat something unhealthy. 2. All of my food is taken in suppository form. 3. I eat nothing but circus peanuts and wheat grass shots. 4. I found out I'm allergic to fat and my body is fighting it off. 5. I have an extensive case of food poisoning. 6. I have terrible nightmares and I sweat it all off. And the list goes on.... lol Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app -

I'm sorry to hear about your bad experience. I don't know where your dietitian works out of, but it sounds like she is in the wrong profession. My dietitian takes and returns my calls quickly, she always loves to hear about my progress, and she has been super helpful with ideas and advice on how to keep things running smoothly. If you can, you should try to get a new one. A dietitian is supposed to be someone you can lean on and they give you answers not hostility Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

Make sure you chew your food really well and wait between bites before taking another. Also when you have pain and something feels stuck, don't give in to the temptation of drinking water to get it to go down. Get up and walk, just walk and walk and that'll help your system move it down easier and a little faster to help with the pain. Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

Recent RNY - How ya doing?
NerdySongBird replied to Corrine2020's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had my surgery May 29th and I've lost about 80lbs so far and its mind blowing! I have some issues with phlegm because of my sinuses so lots of dry heaving every morning, but it's getting better. I still don't see the difference, but I see myself everyday. I feel alot better though and I'm trying new foods everyday and its exciting! I have no regrets!!

Trying to sell off vitamins I don't need or never used
NerdySongBird posted a topic in Protein, Vitamins, and Supplements
What's a good way to sell my vitamins that I bought and never really used? I spent a bunch of money and then just barely used a couple if them. I have no idea where to post. I don't want to throw them out cuz that's wasted money. I'd much rather sell them super discounted so that someone gets some use out of them. Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app -
I've barely eaten in the past week or so. I'm just not hungry at all and when I try to eat anything be it liquid or solid my body doesn't want it. I chew and chew and chew and its s struggle to swallow because I don't want to. I have a Dr. Appointment next week to hopefully resolve some of the issues I'm having. I'm also having sharp pains in my left side where what's left of my stomach sits. Has anyone else experienced these problems? Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

I gave these a try tonight and they were actually pretty good. Its sliced mozzarella baked til its golden, then you roll whatever you want in it. I used shredded chicken, and some seasoned black beans and corn. I was only able to finish like 2 if them lol, but that's because it's been really hot and I haven't eaten much.

Mental Health and Wellness Venting
NerdySongBird replied to NerdySongBird's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
I would say your best bet is to talk to your psychiatrist and discuss the surgery and how meds will work afterwards. That way you know what could possibly happen. Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app -
I made this so that people can vent about their mental health pre and post op. Meds and habits change and it can be really rough. I have Bipolar disorder and having surgery meant stopping my meds for over a month. Then we had to adjust meds so that I'd absorb them better. The in between time was really rough and I had some serious issues with my depression and containing my emotions. It's gotten better and I still have rough days, but venting really helps!

CAN'T STOP LOSING WEIGHT??
NerdySongBird replied to New&Improved's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had my surgery May 29th and I'm down 60lbs. It's hard work, but it gets easier as you go! I had RNYGB and I regret nothing! For the first time in years I'm under 300lbs! I don't see the change yet, but the moment I noticed I'd lost inches was when I got in my car and had to scoot my seat forward cuz my belly wasn't in my way as much! I've hit a stall, but I'm gonna keep working! I love hearing all the success stories people share cuz it keeps me going! Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app -
What do you wish you had known

Speaking as someone who had to go off their BiPolar meds in order to get surgery, idk if there is a group here or not, but feel free to message me if you have questions. Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app -
Considering RNY; Any success stories that was 370-390lbs?
NerdySongBird replied to CuriouslyCurious's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
I had my surgery at the end of May and my Highest weight was 351lbs and now I'm about 6 weeks post op and I'm already down to 294lbs! I've lost over 50lbs! As long as you're willing to put in the work and make the lifestyle change (which isn't as hard as it sounds) then you'll do great! Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app -

I reccomend Genepro unflavored protein powder. You can put it in just about anything and a tiny scoop is 30g of protein. If you need help making a BM I reccomend dulcolax suppository because the first BM after surgery suuuuuuucccckkkkkkksssssss!!! Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app
