Hi all I had a gastric bypass on 28th January 2012 I've lost 65lbs so far but feel totally miserable. Getting fed up of not being able to eat much expect crackerbreads without feeling sick .

Feeling very low when I see everyone being able to go out for meals with there partners and enjoying life when I'm stuck in this life now

I don't regret the surgery because the weight loss is fantastic, just feels that my life has come to a halt :(

I had my surgery on January 19th. I started with just eating a few small bites of something and would see how it would sit and then the next time I would try a few more bites. This seems to help me though I still have issues with Pasta as it is not a food I can eat and I still have to limit sugar to only things with less then 3gms per serving

I have not yet had surgery ..but I have tried the puddings, Jello, Soups, and coffee drinks. And they're awesome! As for dining out, Soups? Maybe? Im sorry you are feeling left out. :'0(

I'm seeing my consultant in July so I will discuss my food issues then, I can't really eat anything without trying to vomit, which sounds like is not normal from what everyone has said.

Just hope things get better :(

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
