I’m crossing my fingers for you! And all of us really that our blood work will show that we are just fine nutrition wise!!

That is an awesome idea! I’m gonna try that! Thanks for sharing!!

If I eat fast (which is a problem for me), I feel it immediately!! I have to sit at the table no distractions and literally time myself and wait at least 30 sec. to 1 min. Between bites... it’s a pain, but otherwise I inhale food. I was struggling so much with the recommended diet, constipation, nausea and sick from too much animal protein. I got permission on Friday to switch to a Whole Foods plant based diet. I am so much happier, and able to meet the protein requirements easier. I’ve never been a big meat eater and I had dairy intolerance pre-surgery. It didn’t improve. So for me, this is a life saver. I’m sharing so that you can do what you need to make this lifestyle your own. If you are having a hard time meeting it in anyway, over time it will wear you out, at least it would me. I’ve tried to remove as many obstacles and complications so I can have the best chance at success. I’ve read a lot of people feeling like they don’t get the full and they can easily eat whatever, they aren’t hungry. what I’ve seen the response is, it will change over time and stick to the plan so you don’t accidentally stretch your stomach, or become malnutritioned. There are days I don’t feel hungry, but if I wait too long I feel nauseous. Best of luck!!

Oh no!!! Sometimes being with our loved ones feels like that!! No worries about this past week. Start again! You got this!!

I’ve been waiting to hear! I’m so glad they finally got you something!! Just believe! (Sugar pills can be powerful right!?!) you’re still in my prayers. Keep us posted on your surgery and progress!

I’m currently in Utah, but have lived in Virginia, Texas, Michigan, Washington and have always been able to get help with this. That’s why I think you need to shop pain doctors. I get they need to be careful, but this is the bare minimum you’re requesting! Hang in!!💚❤️💜

Oh my gosh! I’m so sorry!!! I saw my pain specialist today and got another Percocet prescription. Just because some people get addicted and abuse drugs doesn’t mean we should be in agony. You need to find a new pain dr. That is ridiculous! I have to go in once a month. They won’t call it in, but they can exam you and tell if you’re an addict or a person in extreme pain! I have to go for another round of mri/x-ray/ct... once a year. It’s not like they can’t see it!!! I’m so frustrated for you. Wish I lived nearby, I’d drive you to the doctor and yell at them for you! 😬. Okay maybe not yell, but sternly tell them what’s up!! Still praying for you. Sometimes you have to be the squeaky wheel. Call your GP first thing tomorrow and again after lunch. They get busy and it slides down the list... I have 3 special needs kids and I have learned how to advocate hard! There is no reason for pain in our society! Hang in there!

Hey, welcome! How are you doing? I hope you handled the holiday first half well! I

I see. Glad you found some leftovers!! I’m crossing my fingers they give you something today! You’re in my thoughts and prayers!

I can’t get anything to change on my phone... good to know you can on the computer. I’ll check it out.

Our government at its finest!! I’m so sorry you have to wait! I get so angry when they let people be in pain because some people abuse drugs! Hoping you get relief!

That is so annoying! Nerve pain is the worst! My goes down my legs. I take 10-325 Percocet every 5.5 hours or I wouldn’t survive. Can you see a pain specialist? My GP won’t prescribe either. I’m so sorry!!

I guess I missed a lot!! You’re getting another surgery? Assuming you’re able to stay healthy. I’m sorry you have to go through this so soon after RNY! I’m sorry your in so much pain! Can you get pain meds? I still am on Percocet due to back pain. I couldn’t live without them. Chronic pain stinks!! I’m so sorry!!

Oh no! How is he/you? I hope you have been able to avoid catching it!! You’re both in my prayers!

Hey, Merry Christmas!! I was getting on today to ask that same question!! I’ve survived, stayed on plan and can’t get to my January 8th appointment fast enough. I miss veggies! I have been able to eat a little bit of salsa and hot sauce with beans and eggs, but yesterday I had some Pico de Gallo and when they say your veggies need to be cooked they mean it! I think I had a thumbtack size of tomato and tiny piece of onion...almost threw up. I didn’t mean to eat either, I was sharing a few bites of chipotle chicken and beans from my husbands dinner, I saw it peaking out as I lifted my spoon but it didn’t register fast enough. 😂 how have all of you sweet friends done? I hope we’ll and that you are healthy and safe!
