    Stomach still hurting

    My stomach has been hurting for quite some time now. I called my surgeon and spoke to the nurse about not moving my bowels and said I thought I needed to add some fiber to my diet.

    Getting back to you/more help needed

    So today I had a terrible experience. I was right on track with my protein and my water intake. I went to a church function. While there I needed to kneel. I was kneeling for about 5 minutes when I started to feel real sick. I got very lightheaded, started to sweat, felt sick and weak, and...

    I was losing 3 pounds a week for about a month. Now, the second month after surgery, I am losing very little. Last week I didn't even lose an ounce. In the past four weeks I have only lost 3 pounds. What in the world is going on? I am drinking enough, I am eating over 70 grams of protein a...

    Is this normal?

    I am wondering if losing such a little bit of weight every week is normal? I am losing only 1 to 2 pounds a week. I try to get in all protein and liquid but I only succeed half the time. I know when the weather gets warmer it is easier to drink more. Is the amount of protein and liquid...

    Looking for information

    Would you all tell me the brand name for the protein supplement you are taking? I have tried Isopure and the one they sell at Costco. Any others, especially if they taste good.

    Not doing well

    Hello, This is my first entry. I am looking for someone to talk to about after surgery blues. I had gastric bypass surgery on February 27, 2012. I am only allowed to eat protein. My day starts with pills, pills, and more pills. I hate taking them because they do not feel good in my...
