@anna9/15 Anna, are you still in the hospital? What's going on?

One night.

Protein Shake help for taste and smell?
magtart replied to Gethealthy2016's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I couldn't get past the taste or smell of any Protein powders. I finally decided to stick with chocolate Premier Protein and Isopure clear in he apple melon flavor. -
What were your favorite first "solid" foods?

Dub...Stop, I can't take anymore pics. I want some of those wings right now, dammit! -
I like it with raw sugar snap peas.

Thank you all for you kind words. Maybe I do need to look for a therapist.

No carbonation ever again?

I am not a soda drinker, never have been. I do, however, enjoy an occasional ginger ale or tangerine flavored sparkling Water. I have had both since surgery, but only a few sips and then I put it away. -
Completely normal. I gained 8 pounds in the hospital from IV fluids. It took me a week to lose it.

Ah, well I have never noticed a problem taking Lexapro with anything I consume. I would not worry about it.
-
I take Lexapro and never heard of that restriction. I take Centrum chewables. The only Protein shakes I use are Premier Protein RTD. I can't imagine why they would contain tryptophan.

I agree with the above. There has got to be more than what you are saying? -

Need breakfast ideas, sick of eggs and protein shakes
magtart replied to NMJG's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
I keep telling myself I am going to make some of those mini quiches in a muffin tin, but I am too damn lazy to do it. I am making some now! Bell peppers, green onion, spinach, sharp cheddar, and Canadian bacon. Yum. -
Prefetching or Precaching is not allowed...blah, blah, blah...

Okay, it is not happening now. Weird. I haven't done anything but browse forums today. Thanks! -

Seems like every time I hit "next" in a multiple page post I get the above message without the blah part, of course. What does it mean? I don't want to do things that are not allowed! -

I use Mozilla Firefox 28.0 on a new Lenovo laptop. It only just started happening this afternoon. Everything was fine this morning. -
I had pizza last night, 1 small slice. I had half a cheeseburger the night before last. Earlier this week we ordered Chinese. One order of beef with broccoli lasted me three days. I'm a rebel, what can I say?

Did your doctor prescribe a PPI drug? Most do, but if not you should ask for one. I take 20mg. of omeprazole daily.

Weird Post Op Question
magtart replied to AJ Barefield's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It's because of the high Protein, low carb diet. Your body is in ketosis and it causes bad breath. It should go away when you start eating more fruits and veggies. -
having lots of pain
magtart replied to Susan Beckman's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am sorry you are in pain. Hopefully, you still have pain meds. I know when I was freshly sleeved warm liquids went down best. I always simmered my broth with herbs and added some Better than Bouillon to make it taste better. You can also strain canned chicken noodle Soup or get some egg drop or wonton soup from the local Chinese restaurant. It takes a while to feel better...just take it one day at a time. -
If you are tolerating things well try a chicken taco and some Beans. Whatever you like! You can bring home what you can't eat.
