Does anyone get really really sleepy after eating carbs??? I am 4 months out and do not eat any sugar but I was PMS ing one night and ate 4 french fries with in 5-10 mins i was out cold sleeping for 2-3 hours. Same thing happened when I tried to eat a piece of a pita pocket. Does this happen to anyone??

I know. I dont eat them often but I am going to make sure I have none at work or any restaurant where I have to drive home. It is like an instant thing. It is crazy

Even with a normal system, carbs turn directly into sugar!!!! So think about how quickly that sugar gets dumped into our RNY system. I am almost 4 years out and get very sleepy from carbs. Sometimes I get a headache and really grumpy, best to stick with meat and veggies!!

      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.
