  1. So here it is ... I am 3 weeks post op for gall bladder removal and gastric imbrication/plication and this week I have had this nervous Jittery feeling a few times. I dont like it, and wondering if anyone else has had this feeling, cause I thought those who had the bypass only suffered dumping. I am in the mushie stage and not eating anything much other than my Protein drinks, yogurt, Soup, etc. Just dont know if this is due to the missing gall bladder or the imbrication. Thank you all P
  2. I saw a recipe the other day regarding pizza, and they just sprayed a little pam or a little margarine in the bottom of a non stick frying pan and sprinkle low fat mozzerella cheese over the bottom and add toppings. I would pre-cook some vegetables and then add to top of cheese and have your favorite homemade and or sugar free marinara to dip your pizza in. I wish I did remember the site, but the recipe was so simple I decided not to save the site.
  3. Thank you, from what I have seen mine is similar to the sleeve, with the exception that the part of the stomach that was removed with you, has been folded inward and stabled/sutured on me. My main reason for being in the hospital was the gallbladder. The day that I left the PA just told me to continue with liquids, pureed, then food. with liquids being 2 weeks, and same for pureed. I am not sure how much during the pureed stage. Thanks again
  4. I am going to try and make a long story short (hopefully) On Feb. 2 I had to have my gallbladder removed and was done so by the same dr. who did my lapband in 2010. During the gallbladder surgery he did the gastric plication (making stomach smaller). I will be beginning to cross over to pureed foods, and I have no idea how much am I expected or can comfortably hold. I mean is it a few table spoons or is the Protein measured in oz. I appreciate any information you can share, and Thank You. P
