June 29th Bypass Surgery



Recommended Posts

I'm not. I can't handle regular meat yet. Tried a turkey burger the other day (no bun) and on the second bite I had to puke. I can tolerate ground chicken so I've been making buffalo chicken meatballs and I can only eat one and a half. Today I tried Triscuits with hummus and that sat well. I can actually feel full when I eat two :) other than that it's Greek yogurt and scrambled eggs. I'm going to try tuna fish with cucumber slices this week. Oh!! I did have two pieces of shrimp tempura sushi and I was fine with that and OMG YUM!

Oh, the Buffalo chicken meatballs sound delicious.... do you have a recipe or something somewhere?

And the only time I get nauseous is when I eat something that my body just does not like.

My nausea goes on all day. Wondering if it's just a bug going around by my MIL said her stomach was bothering her last week. I see the dr on 8/3. Maybe they can give me some Zofran if it continues. I see other people on other posts have used it.

I just read this entire forum from beginning to end and it's so cool to see how far we've come. 4 weeks ago we were so scared to do this and now looking back it wasn't that bad. Now we are slowly getting back into eating regular, healthy foods and watching the scale go down. Can't wait to see what a year looks like!

We have.... I know that before I had surgery I never looked at a label. Now I am very cautious as to what I put in my body. I'm looking at everything. My friend goes do you have to look at everything I said yes. This isn't a quick fix, but a lifestyle change. The woman I am today and the woman I was four weeks ago are two different people and I'm not looking back in simply pushing forward. I said I feel great although I have bad days. But no pain no gain. My body knows when I have had enough. Either I'll know or my body will tell me which means I'll throw it up. Four weeks ago I did not have Portion Control. I was just eating to be eating. Not Cool!! I look at things so much different now. I always had a hard time loosing weight. The most I have ever lost was 40lbs with the help of an detox, but as soon as it was completed I was back at square one. I have been over weight all my life, but I mm looking forward to becoming a healthier me.

I tried tuna a few days ago... didn't sit well with me. :(

It seems like with me I still can't having anything more than a cream of wheat consistency and keep it down.

Hey guys

I'm trying not to panic but could use some advice. I took a shower this morning and while I was bathing under my tummy it burned. When I got out I lifted my tummy and saw a HUGE rash!!! I haven't noticed it thus far but it's unbelievable! It looks so inflamed but I didn't even know it was there. I have been so focused on my incisions that I never lifted my tummy to check it out. I put baby powder on it and already have an spot with my dr tomorrow. What do you think it's caused from? ????

it probably a yeast infection there I got them all the time until my dr recomended athlets foot spray to kill the bacteria and keep it from coming back ..I use this spray dailey but when you first spray its going to burn but it goes away fast..

      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.
