    Certain foods and changes

    I loved seafood before surgery, now shrimp doesn't taste as good. Crab makes me sick. Milk makes me sick.I was never a big fan of milk to start with. Green beans and corn make me sick which I did like. I cant stand sugar of any type I can t stand carbonated drinks now. Haven't even tried the carbonated drinks just the thought of it gags me. Sweets tried some tea after surgery that had sugar in it after surgery and it made me sick. I liked sweet tea before surgery not anymore. I will eat stuff with chives in it now. Never liked chives. I eat stuff with onion now never liked onion before. I was always a very picky eater. My husband and I have been married almost 20 years and he is just shocked and amazed at my eating habits changing. Thanks for all the input. I don't feel alone now.
  19. Just checking in. The day of surgery I was 240 today I am 187-190 I guess fluid causes it to go up and down those 3 pounds. I am on dreaded stall right now. Yes I need to exercise more. Going join the ywca the middle of month. Been going with my cousin some to gym, but she seems not to be able to go regular and I have to stop this go one day miss a week or more mess. So I will go to both gyms. I have set myself a goal of 125 so I still have some more to go.

    WLS and C-Sections

    I had 4 c-sections, hysterectomy and gall bladder surgery years before my gastric sleeve surgery in fact my hysterectomy was my last surgery it was 15 1/2 years earlier. none of my previous surgeries effected me having the gastric sleeve surgery
  24. No matter what type of protein shake I try I still get sick at my stomach. I am 11 weeks post op. I have tried them with water, almond milk, soy milk and skim milk. Any advice ? I eat meat most days only meat or egg. But I am still scared I am not getting enough protein. I can only eat one small egg or about 2 oz of meat.
