Those on liquid diet, do you know about how many calories you are getting a day. Mine is quiet low. I think my body is hanging onto what it has. Or those of you that were on the liquid diet feel free to chime in.

If I get in 300, it's a good day.

I had high hopes that RNY would either help or cure my IBS, but alas I woke up to a major flare up today. I'm so so disappointed.

I'm sorry to hear that. Did the Dr say how long it would take for it to clear up? Cuz right now for the first couple months we have so many changes in out diets going from liquids only, puréed. Did you Dr tell you if that would make a difference and u could have flare ups

I average 300 too which I thought was too low, but I guess not. I guess it is pretty common. I am able to eat a yogurt in one day (today first time). I think I've noticed a lot less gas today too. Other than the yogurt being quartered up into 4 meals today, I haven't had any other milk products today. Need to talk to Dr about using coconut milk again.

The doctor never said it would help with the IBS, I just thought with having a bit of my small intestine bypassed I could get lucky and that be the part that gets so pissed off, apparently not so lucky.

[one4ozzie 434]

Well hopefully after eating gets normal, u will see some change.

I had the same concern (I'm out a week). I asked my dietician today and she said that one time will not stretch out the pouch. If we stuff it consistently' date=' then the long term outlook of losing and maintaining is at stake.[/quote']

I wanted to thank you for your reply. That is helpful information so I could stop worrying! :-) I won't do that again!
