Weight gain, bloating and bowel moments that u described, without he pain. I had to have an upper Gi done and the doc saw food was passing through my stoma way to fast. The area before the stomach was rounded like a ball. That made the food fill up and push through too quickly. That is causing my hunger to also be through the roof!

Ordered popsicle molds and made my own orange creamsicle. I use Bariatic Advantage Orange Cream [/url]shake mix (27g Protein) and use 8 oz of Fairlife nonfat milk (13g protein) instead of Water. Mix well in blender. Makes 6 popsicles. It's a little thick, and I could not drink it as a shake, but great as a frozen treat. I usually eat 2 at a time for a snack - a little over 13 grams [/url]Protein of Protein. Plus it's a Meal Replacement shake so has other nutrients - just made a batch with BariatricPal Advantage strawberry to try next.

I too stopped caffeine two weeks before switched to decaf. But a week after surgery My doctor said I can have a cup a day of caffeinated So I do. It takes more than a cup to get dehydrated from caffeine. Just make sure you drink plenty of water too.

My surgeon said decaf was fine to start right away. Wants me to wait 3 months before I have any caffeine.

Kiki, I had to weight two months also for insurance. Visited with my doctor he told me to maintain for two month. I was close to being a diabetic, father passed away of heart problems, 3 half sibling were diabetics and none over weight. My doctors convinced my insurance that it was best to have surgery. 1 year out this month. Lost 100 lbs, jogging 4 miles a day, passed my goal weight and feeling wonderful. Best thing I ever did. Outlaw hope you are doing well. Know you can get thru this and will be better for it!!! Keep up the good work. Kikib85 keep us posted.

My surgery is Monday and I'm ready only worried about the pain the first two days.[emoji4][emoji4]
