  1. I couldn't eat for the first month after I got my surgery and purging can lead to more medical problems. I think you should call your doctor office and ask then to have the doctor call you directly or the nutritionist, but don't speak with anyone who makes you uncomfortable. You can also ask your insurance company if they have a Health line where you can speak with a nurse or nutritionist over the phone. Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk
  2. You can dump from various forms of surgar, bread or from eating too fast. It can happen to some people at any time and other not at all. It's too hard to calculate because everyone's body is so different. Your life will never be the same, but I think by the 6th month you will have created your new normal.

  7. Post Opp -- 4 months. 6/4/12 Initial weight - 280 Today - 214.7. I'm serious .3 down. Im starting to get really sad and frustrated with this process. I'm having a lot of hormone period issues and I think that could be the cause of the problem. I've had a period every 2 weeks while on BCP. Struggling to to lose from this point. . I Do not have a lot of energy to walk. I can't do a full mile yet, just 3rd or 6th of a mile. I sleep a lot. I have fibromyalgia and wonder is this just a side effect? Or should I go back to doctor to get checked? My 3 months vitals were good. Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk
