Sandie, i am seeing my surgeon today. I just hope fhe source can be found and fixed

no gall bladder. no relation to eating either. more positional. thanks for the thought

I snack also. I still cannot eat very much at one time. I usually eat something inbetween meals and in the evening. My surgeon tells me that I will get into trouble this way. I dont disagree, just cant get enough in to last more than a couple of hours. and dont know about anyone else, but...

I had my rny in october 2012. I stalled a couple months later. I found that I wasnt getting in all the protein that I thought I was. Keep meticulous count of your protein grams and make sure you are getting at least 60g/day. When I was able to start adding more solid foods and cut back on...

Kim, the first couple of times i tries to shop for new clothes in the "regular" size departments, I was overwhelmed. I have shopped in plus size for many years and we all know that the selection is very small. To now have so much to choose from was too much. I didnt know where to begin. I...

I am 4 months out now. I have been having rather severe, intermittent, dull pain on the right side of my mid-back. My husband tells me that back pain was what I complained about in recovery after the rny. After the first 3 weeks it subsided some But its back and worse. Comes and goes...

if you can afford it, take all three. with the holidays around the corner, get all the rest you can. getting overly tired sets you back to your recovery. I found in the first month, and even now at 7 weeks out, that if i do too much i dont feel like eating or drinking and that sets my...

well i definately have a new "regular"! For me its every 4 days or so. If I go more than 5 days I do take a childs size dose of milk of mag but that has only happened 2x in almost 7 weeks.

i think my protein intake has been slipping. since i started soft foods a couple of weeks ago i havent been getting in the 60-70 that i am supposed. I have been avoiding the protein shakes since i was so tired of them. but maybe i will have to add one or two back. Thanks karen and qaterra, i...

i am 6 wk out now. I lost a significant amount of weight the first week. In retrospect it was probably mostly from being dehydrated. Since then I have lost 3 pounds a week for the next couple of weeks, then last week 5. This week I lost NOTHING. How is that possible? I walk every day it...

i never tried the unjury. I have just been using the cubes, i really like the saltyness of it. due to other symptoms i have been having lately, it seems my thiamine may be low. had my blood drawn yesterday but it will take a week for results. this may be why some days i dont want anything

Thankyou for looking this up! I do take my flintstones. Doctors nurse says it may not be enough. I am not really eating any of the foods that have it in them yet. It will be interesting to see blood results.

Omg, you poor thing. I am 5 weeks out, and it does get much better. Dont have to lie. The first weeks are hard. I got so sick of the sweet protein drinks, chicken broth made with buillion cubes were the best! Dont be too hard on yourself to get in all the protein and fluids just yet, its...

Hi, I am 5 weeks out. I have a very hard time remembering to eat slowly and chew thoroughly. Last week I took a bite of ham that I knew was too big, but I figured that I would chew it really well and it would be ok. Well I was distracted by what I was reading at the time and of course old...

I am 5 weeks out from rny. The last 2 weeks I have felt like I am in a mental fog. I forget things easily, seem slow to process info, not sleeping well, and at times feel like my face is numb. I cannot speak clearly at times, it feels as though my lips and cheeks are stiff. This comes and...

I am 5 weeks out from rny. I bought musselmans sugar free applesauce. I have no problem with it. I also depended alot on chicken buillion broth the first few weeks. You can get pretty tired of the protein drinks because they are so sweet. The broth was a great change. I also added cocoa...

yes. but it will take time. while you are still losing rapidly you will still be releasing alot of stored estrogen. your body will adjust and of course the weight loss will slow after awhile. we just have to deal with it along with all the other changes! my 6yr old grandson had his tonsils...

Women store estrogen in fat. As u lose weight rapidly this estrogen is released causing large fluctuations in ur levels. Its no wonder we are so emotional.

I am 5 weeks out and the last couple of weeks I have been feeling so cold and chilled. My hands and feet are ice cold. If I am not having a hot flash, then I am shivering. This is so unlike me. I am always way too warm, sweaty even. Lately I have been going to bed earlier just to get under...

i am only 5 weeks out, but i have found that some days for whatever reason, i simply cannot eat. And usually at the same time i dont want to get any fluids in either. I dont throw up, but i feel a pressure and a feeling of having eaten too much even though i havent eaten al all. i am coming...
