I eat first thing in the morning then wait 30-40 minutes and start on a Protein shake! I just went in for my 6 month appt. (early) and she told me since I was working out it would be fine to have both breakfast and a shake because it will boost metabolism! Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalkMy ex friend had that done....biggest mistake she still regrets it and her surgery was April 17th! She can't eat but a bite here and there and throws up all the time! She already has had an endoscopy and found out she's got gastritis which is the beginning of an ulcer! I watched her everyday struggle to eat the littlest thing.....after seeing what she's gone through I'm glad I had RNY instead of sleeve! Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalkGood luck!
