Hey Everyone,

So today is officially two months post-op for me. I had my RNY bypass surgery on Oct 1st.

Highest weight ever: 261.4

Weight day of surgery: 249.0

Current weight as of today: 220.0

It seems like my progress has been really slow compared to other on rnytalk.com however I am happy with my continuous progress. I so cant wait to get out of the 200s. I have been doing a lot of walking, however my goal for this month is to get even more active in the gym.

Hi Niki,

Its still a challenge for me to meet my protein goal. I try to shot for 60g of protein a day however it seem like I've been getting in about 40-50 a day. The vitamins are a whole different story. Since the surgery i have not been able to tolerate any artificial sweeteners, so i have to force myself to get the chewable vitamins down. To be honest i do forget to take them sometimes because its such a challenge for me. I've even tried crushing them and eating the powder... Hopefully it will get better for me. I might start breaking them in half and see if that helps.

I know what you mean the protein is horrible. I've tried the Protein Shots, the high Protein Drinks, protein pre made shakes all of it taste bad. I get very little protein in and im

trying. I don't know what to do.

Have you tried unflavored Protein Powder? You can mix it in foods like yogurt, mashed potatoes, pudding, cooked Cereal, etc. I use Unjury unflavored. It has 20 grams per serving. I also like mixing plain Greek yogurt with skim milk, frozen fruit... I mix it in the blender. That's 30 grams. Health wise makes drink mix like crystal light that have 15 grams per serving.

Hey October buddies. Returned to work on Nov 26 and it has been hectic. Plus I broke my phone. I haven't lost any weight this week, but i figure that is because I haven't been getting my Protein and Water in since I have been back to work. I will have to do better this week. How is everyone else doing so far?

I am doing better so far since the surgeon did a dilatation on Friday. I sure hope it fixed whatever I was experiencing. I am down 43 pounds total 33 since surgery in 10/29/12.

Has anyone seen my boobs? I seem to have misplaced them because they are surely not on my chest anymore...

Oh, but no worries: my thighs and butt are still right where I left them.

      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.
