I had my endoscopy today because although the last month has been great, this last week I puked a bunch and I was nauseous most of the time. My surgeon & I both expected a stricture, but no stricture. Turns out I have an ulcer in my intestines from the stomach acid. Better news than a stricture I guess but I have to drink this medicine 4x a day, on an empty stomach, an hour before meals or 2 hours after meals, without any other meds. So now another thing to "time" out. As if the waiting between meals to eat and drink isn't enough to figure out. I'm doing really good otherwise. Down 41 lbs since the beginning of my journey. 9 lbs from halfway My only complaint is I'm not getting all my protein in. I try but I'm still eating so little. I'll read labels and think "oh this is great!" bit I end up eating such a small serving it barely makes a dent in the protein. Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk

I messed up on mine bad. I was supposed to do it for 2 weeks and I did it for one week. I was fine. Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk

He explained its the scar tissue forming at the bottom of the pouch where it meets the intestines. Sometimes too much scar tissue makes the opening too small, so they have to stretch it out a little bit. Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk

I'm having a scope done Friday at noon, they think its a stricture. Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk

I'm a hairstylist so I'm on my feet the entire work day. I took 10 days off, and on the 11th day had to call and cancel my clients because I just wasn't ready. I started back after 2 weeks exactly and was good. Tired but good. Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk

Is this dumping? Made those cheese crisps for Breakfast. About 15 min after I finished, got queasy. Thought I had to either puke or the other thing. Spent 30 min in the bathroom, no action either way. Had to lay down and I've been laying down for hours. Feel super crappy. Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk

I've felt like crap the last 2 days. Everything I eat makes me queasy or puke. Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk

I'm a month post op and so tired of meat/soft food. Most of my crazy carb cravings are gone but still I'm looking for some crunch. I saw this recipe on Pinterest and made them. Still not as tasty as actual chips but I got my crunch. Cheese Crisps! Super easy low carb snack. Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk
