Hi Everyone,

My surgery was scheduled for June 29. 2015 as well. I would love to keep up with each other's progress along the way.

Welcome! And congrats on your surgery! Hope you are recovering quickly!

I had the RNY... I'm am feeling well, but I'm taking it one day at a time. I'm almost two weeks out. However I did do too much one day and I was in so much pain. What procedure did you have?

I had RNY also. So far it's been pretty easy for me. The surgery was nothing. My cesareans were worse. Hardest part right now is going out and enjoying summer life without food being a part of it.

That's great. I know when I woke up in recovery my back was killing me. They said it was trapped gas and once it passes the pain in my back would go away. I got up and walked the same night I had surgery. I am sometimes really thirsty, but I just learned to consume more liquids. I am still getting use to the 30...30..30.

SCRAMBLED EGG DAY!! Woohoo!!!! I could only eat 1/3 of it but it tasted so good!!! Then my husband made me lentils with ground up chicken and that was amazing too. Anyone else try "new" foods this week? I'm learning that I actually do like healthy foods as long as they're flavorful.

I tried an egg but it was hard boiled so I mashed it to bits in my mouth. But it wasn't fantastic. My new thing is cutting potatoes into strips and baking them until they are mushy and it's like I'm eating fries!!! Yummy!! Mashed potatoes can get sooo boring.

It's so hard cutting out the carbs ! Potatoes Pasta and brown rice are my weakness. So far I've had a can of potato Soup that lasted 2 days and it was yummy. Since I am off purée and back to solid food again,

I need some recipes, what are you finding is a good Protein meal ? I'm a chicken girl & was told it's too dry for me now ( not a seafood person)

Also, yes I had gastric bypass :)

^ @@TeeNahh are you physically able to eat carbs? Or have you mainly cut them out to make room for Protein? I got stuck eating mashed potatoes somewhat regularly but have since stopped. I just wanted something warm that wasn't liquid.

I can eat them sadly, I had mac n cheese during my purée stage too and it wasn't an issue for me.

I'm trying to find yummy Protein to forget the carbs.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
