  1. Count your protein! That is the only thing my doctor told me to do. Count your protein. 1 oz of meat = about 7 g of protein. Drink a protein shake like EAS AdvantEdge for breakfast, and if necessary get the ANYwhey protein powder and put it in your meals. You need at least 60 g of protein every day to not lose your hair. This info is from my baratric doctor and baratic dietician.
  2. Hey, I got my surgery 7 wks ago. I healed up and got my first fill at 4 weeks, then went back 2 wks later since it was not tight enough. For about 2 days after the second fill I could not keep anything but about two bites down. I just "spat up" (no real stomach acid, just stuck in my throat). Then half way through the third day I was able to eat a little more, but then really threw up for the first time. Ever since that I've been able to eat about 1 cup of food, and have not had any problems with it getting stuck. I get full fast and stop eating, so that is good, it is just that the sudden change rather worried me. Could I have I damaged/loosened something when I threw up? It feels like it opened it up or something and I'm hoping that is not bad...
