My highest weight was 276... now I'm at 222 and I can't believe the difference in my face! [ATTACH]809[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]810[/ATTACH] - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12

This is my surgeon I adore his french canadian accent - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12

Beware: milk is very high in carbs and sugar - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12

Artic zero has 150 cals per pint and has <5g of carbs and sugar. The catch? They taste like shit. What I do to not go mad is I eat fudgecicles by 'popsicle'. It has a few more carbs than I'm allotted but I don't get sick and it's pretty tasty - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12

Listen... someone without the surgery who is eating damn near nothing and healthy and works out vigorously will be lucky to lose 10 lbs in a month. I've been losing abput 20 lbs a month, you're doing great - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12

Ps- I never had the sensation of needing to pee or actively peeing. I was shocked as hell to see them take away the giant pitcher of urine that APPARENTLY came from me - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12

It doesn't hurt at all and you can't even tell it's inside you unless you pull away from it and you can tell you're attached to something. They put it in when you're asleep and take it out when you're awake on like day 2 post op. I actually was very happy to have it because that meant I didn't have to get up for 2 days lol - I didn't have any bowel movements until day 3. Feels weird when they take it out but it's faster than a needle - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12

Ps try maalox - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12

I have had pain in my sternum for about a week now, if I try to eat or drink I get nauseous. It feels like menstrual cramps but in my sternum. Surgeon thinks I have an ulcer, going to the dr today about it. Hope you feel better - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12

some people cannot process milk post-op (I can't drink more than 4oz without feeling ill) so it's all up to what you can get in. Milk is high in carbs and sugar but also 9g of Protein per cup - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12

Oh and have shoes that don't get ruined because I apparently lean on them a certain way that that ruins a certain portion of the shoe

Which means no pants in the winter either :x

I can not wait to buy all the cute clothes that never fit anymore and have my own style... I've always only worn what fits which is always dresses! I haven't worn jeans in over a year because I hated how they looked on me. - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12

Almost 2 months post op and down 35 lbs - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12

Ugh this option wasn't even presented to me. I spent the first 2 weeks post op holding my left side up because letting my stomach hang was excruciating - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12

Heck i'm afraid that I've been eating more than 3oz - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12

Oh wow huge difference. - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12

Look up chef dave - he had the gastric bypass and I believe he has a "for dummies" book too - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12

Personally more upset about beer. Never was a soda drinker - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12

You had the lap band? Idk how many people will know the answer to this since 99% of us are now RNY gastric bypass. I don't think the band is necessarily supposed to be temporary? - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12

My pouch has been bothering me for a few days. The pain is internal and at my sternum. At first I thought maybe something got stuck but it wasn't as excruciating as when food is stuck and it's been persistent for 3 days. Any ideas? - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12

is anyone else experiencing this or has in the past? - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12
