I Never Expected This Pain!
I have a high pain tolerance..but when I had surgery in april, I was in excruciating pain..the morphine did nothing in the hospital and neither did the pain killers after It lasted about a week and a half..then I was just really sore but it was more annoying then painful. I have no idea how anyone had no or little pain or even went back to work a week after ..their bodies must have some freakishly extremely high pain tolerance

Way To Sweet?
I had some frozen greek yogurt..I guess it was too sweet...although when I was eating it, I was fine. About 10 minutes later I was nauseous(had to have that extra bite) but I also had this "someone just poured 10lbs of sugar down my throat"..taste in the back of my throat..I get this occasionally from certain foods..anyone else get this?

- Has Anyone Gotten Ulcers From Drinking Coffee?
Prior to surgery I got gastritis from the massive amount of coffee I drank...now Im 4mo post op and i have 1 cup in the morning..I also take 300mg of zantac in the morning(always had acid issues)...coffee isn't a problem just like everything else, don't drink it in excess or with tons of cream and sugar- The Stuff They Don't Tell You
I have really fine hair to ..im 24...I had surgery in april and literally just started losing it like a few weeks ago..it comes out in a whole lot of strands but I don't have any bald spots or anything..its alarming but I wouldn't worry...just make sure you take your Multivitamins and have Protein...it'll eventually stop. taste wise for me anything sugary tasted so sugary it was nauseating...some things I can't even look at it makes me sick..other then that nothing to drastic..don't be scared just remember its for your health and well being- I Ate And It And I Am Not Going To Beat Myself Up!
Enough with the negativity.. there's no room for it in this forum Thx- I Ate And It And I Am Not Going To Beat Myself Up!
Idk if id consider any of this cheating..considering its not a horrendous amount of food. I had a pint of frozen greek yogurt over the course of 12 hours( aka over night). I kept going back to it- Weight Loss And Time
Im 4 months out and I lost 60lbs. Im 5'7 ..Went from 315 to 255. Probably could have lost more had I been more healthier on a few of my food choices- The Stuff They Don't Tell You
- I Want To Lose More
Yeah your not going to lose anything but muscle and your hair if your only eating 300 calories a day. Im 24 and I thought I wasn't going to be the one to lose hair after surgery but about 3 weeks ago I started to. Im convinced its from malnutrition The point of the surgery is to be healthier. Try eating higher calorie foods or just stop counting calories. This is why your losing nothing - Has Anyone Gotten Ulcers From Drinking Coffee?
