Yes and they will continue to stink and so will your poo!! More than ever!!

LOL so true

My doctor said that is ok to take pills the only thing is that they have to be broken down so they can be smaller that a tic tac

Today I ate two carne asada tacos and they were big! I only ate one tortilla on one of them (they come wrapped in two) and I ate the meat out of the other. I literally felt like I was going to burst! I was in so much pain afterwards I honestly thought about making myself throw up.

I hope I haven't done any permanent stretching to my pouch.

I love carne asada tacos and that's my weakness I confense I'm addicted to food and now I'm afraid to start on that sickle because I don't want stretch my pouch :-(

O god I did the same thing and now I feel horrible

I did peachtreebariatrics at Atlanta medical with dr Duncan I like them

My Dr is Dr Duncan he also has REAL RESULT. I started going in March and had my surgery in July. Good luck

This threat really got my blood pumping, first I'm a US citizen but also have Mexican heritage I don't get food stamps but what gets me is when I go to a store and the people in front of me ( not Hispanic most ot the time!!!) They have their hair done, nails, gold every were, and a brand new SUV and they end up paying with food stamps and when they are told that they need to take a drug test they complain. We need a drug test in order to get a job and not food stamps!! In my case I have make sure I manage my money because I don't get anything for free. Sorry but I had to vent

I just realised that i met my first goal. I went to the dentist for my cleaning and they needed my drivers license to up date my info, well when i got it back it sais weight 238 and this morning that I weight my self it said 233. I'm so happy to finally weight les than what my license sais :-)

I get the unflavor one is has NO sugar but it has a good source of potassium

I mix Water and pediatric electrolyte and Crystal light and that helps not to get dehydrated

7/11/12 lost 25 lb

34 lb is great I only lost 22 lb many first month

Well mami I for depress after losing my job and moving 1000 miles away from my family and also from gaining weight and that brought me in a cycle of eating to feel happy and then getting in a vicious cycle and then to top it of I was always tired didn't wanted to go out and felt like Icould sleep day and night :'(. I was told to start taking some thing for depression after my NUT test for RNY. I tried natural things but in order to qualify for surgery I had to start taking them. The ones that my doctor recommended help my to get going and now I actually feel excited about life

:-)

I started taking SERTRALINE 2 months before surgery and my doctor told me to keep taking them after surgery. I had my surgery 5 weeks ago and they are have helped me from those blues and down days. I cut it half and take sips of Water.< /p>

I buy unflavor Protein in GNC I like to put it in apple sauce, oatmeal, well any thing. Good luck

Well I had the same problem but my doctor told me that is nothing to worry that is from the air tube down our throat during surgery. You will get better I'm one month out and don't get that dry throat feeling any more

Thanks everyone I wasn't thinking that 22 lb is more than what I had tried to lose before the surgery. :-)

Tomorrow will be on month post op and as of today I have only lost 22 lb, I'm exercising and eating my Protein and don't know what all's to do I feel like I'm not losing enough. Sorry to vent but I'm totally down :'(

Well hear is a list that I got from my doctor on meds, I hope it can help :-)
