I'm with you. I don't enjoy food. Well right now I don't enjoy anything due to latest surgery. But I'm sure it will turn around for us all. I just worry, or second think, about everything I put in my body.

I need to get new glasses' date=' but I was going to wait till I reached goal weight. I know from many years ago, that weight loss can improve your vision. I am 65 pounds down with about 45 pounds to go. I can deal with the ones I have. Just wondering what you guys thought. Should I wait with the thought that more weight loss could change my vision more if I get glasses now?

I hadn't heard of weight improving vision but I would welcome that change. Maybe wait for another 20 lbs? Guys lose so fast - great job on the weight loss!

I never heard that weight loss can change your vision? That one is new to me. Your face shape changing due to weight loss might make glasses fit differently, so for that reason I would wait. That's only my opinion, but great job on the weight loss! You are doing great!

Does everyone deal with nausea and vomiting on a normal basis? Im 6 weeks out, and get a little nauseous when I eat. Not every time, but maybe once a day. And vomiting, maybe 2-3 times a week. Mostly if I try something new, or eat to fast.

Do you all think this is normal?

Thanks,

E

I have found that a lot of my pouch issues were from not eating regularly. Although I don't really feel like eating, my pouch seems more settled if it has something in it versus being totally empty. Warm Decaf tea has been a great soother. I don't like things moistened I prefer most of my food dry. The differences we each experience are so amazing!

Hi, I had my op on the 17th and I'm 2 weeks in and have lost 13lb to date.I've just started eating mushy food as I call it but I was very anxious about it. I'm worried I may eat to much as not sure when I'm full.I want to lose another 56lb then prob another 14 after depending in how being so slim suits me.

Also I had a bad dinner... Wanted a burger bad... We were at ruby Tuesday and I got the kids menu mini burgers... They were delicious... I ate both but not all the bread... And 2 small forkfuls of mashed potatoes... Felt great for the first 10 mins... Then pain... And it got worse and worse for an hour until I finally felt relief... I'm assuming the bread expanded... I've had a few breaded things but that was the first actual bread that was horrible man oh man did that hurt

I use Centrum calcium and D petites. They are close to half the size of the regular centrum. I've never crushed. Well did once and it came back up.

      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.
