My Pouch Is Trippen



Recommended Posts

That is so funny you guys mentioned the old pouch making noises! I thought I was going crazy lol. I'm 16 days out and the growling started yesterday- at least that's when I really noticed it

Has anyone else had a funny acting pouch the first week out.

I wii have to admit that when this conversation first started I really did not have any pouch craziness that I thought I could tell. Then I went to the doctor today and told her that I got real nauseous after drinking Water. Then she said, was it cold and I said of course. So now I'm aware that my pouch is crazy acting also. Just need to watch the cold stuff for awhile, she said it only does that in the beginning stage of the pouch. So good news it gets better along the way! HURRAY!

No I haven't but I thing the peppermint tea was smart and a good idea. You should start a thread where people can post good ideas that help and post that. I'm sure everyone has something cool that can help others.

Surgery date October 10' date=' 2012 converted from Lapband to RNY, begin weight 230, preop weight 219, now Oct. 18, 2012 weight 213[/quote']

Great idea. I'm just starting my journey and already have a list of things I'll need before, at the hospital, and after surgery. This tea is going on my list :)

I am so happy I found this site.

I'm not sure my pouch likes very cold crystal light....it pretty much made that known immediately with weird monster, alien-like sounds!

My surgery was 12 days ago so I am still on Protein Shakes. Every single time I take that first sip and it hits my brand new baby pouch, the old stomach growls and growls, then it stops. My kids say it reminds them of our obnoxious cat that meows and meows until he's fed. LOL

      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.
