  1. Just emailed the Protein food list. Carb loading is important for intense exercise like a marathon or any kind of exercise where you're going to be burning a lot of energy. Carbs are king when it comes to energy. Just look at what the Olympians eat on the day of a competition - some of those guys eat 6000 calories for Breakfast. Not sure why your increase of carbs would result in your being sluggish the next day. Possible that you're expending so much energy on heavy exercise days that you're exhausting the carbs and what you're feeling the next day is just the absence of carbs.

    I'm pretty much stumped by the pain. Nuts are rich in poly and monounsaturated fats. Unfortunately that doesn't give me any ideas regarding what the cause of the pain might be. Possibly an ulcer? Are you seeing your surgeon tomorrow? The surgeon might be the best bet for diagnosing that pain. You also might want to look at what you have eaten preceeding the times when the pain surfaces. If it's an ulcer (or pre-ulcer)' date=' you may be able to identify what food or foods trigger it. Your doctor would probably like to know how long after you eat the pain occurs as well. That might help them narrow down if it's the pouch or lower in the small intestine or not related to the digestive tract at all. I'd be interested to hear what they say![/quote']

    Can u please send it to me also my email is jvazquez@tachi-yokut.com I have been having a lot of trouble getting my Protein intake. Thanks


  2. Don't worry everybody is or has gone through what your going through. It's all normal. Little piece of advice HIDE YOUR scale lol it will play tricks with u. I actually threw mine away cause I was weighing myself everyday it was driving me crazy. I am almost 5 months post op my staring weight was 265 and now I am 188 and I only weigh myself at the Drs office every two weeks. I like the surprise lol so hang in there. Good luck everybody


  3. I do not have one yet' date=' but I am scheduled for all of my pre op stuff in the next two weeks. Nutrition on the 10th, Psych on the 18th, and endoscopy on the 25th! And then I guess insurance approval after that.[/quote']

    Your almost there they scheduled me fast after I got all my pre op stuff done it was in like 2 weeks I got insurance approval it took so long on my approval because oringinally i wanted to have the lap band and then changed my mind then I got a date which was two weeks later it seemed to go fast

  5. Don't get discouraged I think the first week is the hardest well it was for me but it gets better and before u know it the weight will just start falling off. Nothing worth having is easy. I am 14 weeks post op.I second guessed myself and my decision to have the surgery. But now im glad i had it. WALKING IS VERY IMPORTANT SO REMEMBER WALK WALK WALK
