  6. Sex gets amazing for us too. I've lost 40lbs and my sex drive has increased along with my confidence but I'm finding my hubby can't keep his hands off me. He's asking my for sexy bed outfits....

  10. My Dr sent me home with nausea meds and 2 different antacids. Room temp drinks work best so far. Thanks for your support.
  11. This was happening to me and I went to ER... Was admitted for 4 days. IV fluids, X-ray, ct scan and upper gi.... All normal. That's good but still have hard time drinking without feeling pain or stuck feeling. Anything I eat makes me nauseous Feeling down, depressed and alone. No one understands when we can't eat cause they can.
  12. I am having the same issue. I am on puréed foods and I am not able to eat much of anything. I am chewing on my food as indicated however it still feels like it's being stuck. I have had chicken and chicken and liquid yogurts but those seem to be making my stomach very sick. Even when I drink fluids I'm constantly feeling nauseous but my doctor is just indicating he thinks my stomach is just healing slower than others. I did have some mashed potatoes with gravy from KFC and my stomach seemed to tolerate that well and I can usually have a small bit of applesauce
  13. Lost a lot of my butt and boobs already. Want the tummy to go down.
  14. It has been a long two weeks. I've lost a total of 37 pounds since January. [ATTACH]10538[/ATTACH]

  17. I took 1 week. I'm on my 2nd week and work about 6 hours. I get tired and need a nap. Listen to your body.
  18. I can have coffee. I have 1 from Dunkin but its a small iced with skim milk and equal NO decaf
  19. I crockpot. This way it's cooked, they can eat and I sit in the other room. Lately I'm ok with sitting with them talking.
  20. I'm 32 had surgery on 2/28... Down 11 lbs but 32 total since preop appt. Hi walk about an hour every day Monday through Friday. I still have a very hard time getting in my fluids and Protein. If I take sips it still feels like it's upsetting my stomach but I do find drinking from a straw helps a lot. I have my check up tomorrow with my nutritionist and hoping that she will give me some suggestions or moved me onto the next stage. I did have some scrambled eggs tonight and that went okay but I ate them too fast and ended up feeling sick. I also have tried some small bites of chicken chewed very well and that went down okay so I'm hoping that I can get the protein in that way or by a Greek yogurt. Preop weight 238 Surgery weight 217 Today weight 206
