    Carbs

    I was advised just like slowtogo The only thing my Dr told me to count was 64 ounces of hydration a day Eat Protein first then if after 3 ounces I am still hungry I can have a veggie not corn or peas Fruit only as a small dessert again only if I am still hungry which never happens I don't think I dump unless I over eat I have friends that dump from the smell of baking Cookies not sure why I am different but I am

    Protein Pb Cups

    Peanut Butter And Dumping :(

    Peanut Butter makes me very sick all kinds I even made it with fresh unsalted peanuts at HEB and I was still sick off one teaspoon PB2 is better but I still feel ill just not as violent For me I think that I am sensitive to the nut itself so not planning on trying it again anytime so

    Feeling Left Behind

    I has surgery on 8/23 on the following Tuesday I was in the ER with terrible nausea turns out it was reflux because my stomach was so pissed off Docs words I was regretting my surgery that morning and one hot mess but with Nexium I am a new woman My Dr is different compared to others in the forum She told me to track liquids and eat Protein if I get hungry She told me if I am not hungry don't eat She flat out told me no shakes and only a bar if I am craving a sweet So far Beans cheese ground beef and milk are sitting well I do have mild bits of nausea but my Doc gave me some Zofran and that saps it right away Does anyone else have a plan post op like this???

    Eating Out :(

    I had my surgery on 8/23/2012 I was on Clear liquids in the hospital When discharged I was told to stay on clear liquids or full liquids for no more than 2 weeks UNLESS I started to feel bad like low blood sugar bad I was shocked that it happened the Monday after surgery I tried Beans and they sat well I must have a surgeon that is flexible based on the person I feel lucky Today we were out shopping and the rest of my family wanted lunch so we went to taco bell and I had half a serving of beans and it pleased my pouch Just wanted to share my experience so far
