    Food, Glorious Food!

    I'm dreaming of that day! My doctor told me that I can start having soft fish on Wednesday, so I have been consuming my days of thinking about "what kind of fish I want and where shall I get it from".. Wednesday can not get here any sooner!

    Trouble With Vitamins

    They are all chewable vitamins from Baritric Advantage. I think I will call my dr in the morning. Thanks!
  3. Today marks my 2 week post op and I'm noticing I have been having trouble with my vitamins. When I take all my vitamins, I'm full all day and very nauseous. So yesterday, I didn't take any vitamins and was able to eat and drink more and no nausea- so today just tried to take my first vitamin of the day, and I threw it up! Any suggestions? Has this happened to anyone else? I just seem to feel so much better without them. And yes, I have tried taking them at night, I even tried taking a different vitamin every hour, to no avail.
  4. Hi All, my name is Jacqi! Mother of 2 boys, married for 6 years. Live in Dallas and work in Plano. Surgery was on the 18th of June at Doctors Hospital done by Dr.Barker. Still having buyers remorse, so I think the support group would be great for me!

    Can You Blend Anything?

    And did you just eat that plain or you put it in a cracker?

    Can You Blend Anything?

    Thanks! I'm really wanting something with a "shrimp taste", I bought a can of cream of shrimp, but that tasted nothing like shrimp to me.
  7. Hi guys, just wondering if you blend something into a liquid/purée form, does it still taste the same?

    Teenage Sons

    My son just turned 13, and also I haven't lost that much weight for him to notice as I'm only 2 weeks post op. But I do know, my son was embarrassed whenever I was around him and his friends due to my weight.

    Questions To Ask At 2 Week Check Up?

    If you haven't asked already, " do you have to have chewable vitamins forth rest of your life or can you can/if you can switch to capsules?" How many ounces of food does he suggest you eat during each meal? How much water would he like you to drink? Ask about exercising? Hope this helps!

    Is This Normal?

    Thanks Everyone! My water is at room tempature, but I just want to gag at every sip!
  13. Surgery was Monday- came home Tuesday night. Since I have been home I have only had 2 Popsicles ( one yesterday and one today) and only sips of water.. I have not been able to get thru half a 16 ounce bottle of water since I been home. I just feel nausous everytime I start to sip on my water. Is this normal?

    Changing Doctors Mid Approval?

    I changed surgeons at the end. My change was due to insurance reasons. It was hard at first, because my new surgeon required different things than my first surgeon - it became very frustrating very fast. But, I dealt with it and stuck it out -Surgery was yesterday:)
