Already having a problem with food dr released me to eat light flakey fish like tilapia tuna and salmon, cottage cheese and refried beans... Well I'm throwing up tonight first time since surgery idk why, I are salmon tonight tried for the first time and looks like I can't handle that try man oh man I didn't over eat and waited 30mins before I drank any water and omfg I'm still up battling the stomach from throwing up more having some of the fish come up now ahhhhh what to do

Can anyone maybe help me? I been feeling GREAT but all day today if I move funny or stretch my leg or anything my left rib cage burns so bad and I can't breath it hurts sooo bad. It's the only "pain" I'm having but idk if its normal!!! I've had bad back pain on left side where my kidney is since surgery and that's gone away but now it's my ribs burning on left aide no matter what I do idk if I should wait till Tuesday for my dr apt or go to ER

That's awesome! Today I put on t shirt that would never have fit me before and it fits still tight but fits ! Haha but hey little things like necklaces and collar bones is awesome I think! Yay

Ohh and your swelling could be worse than mine because I see how you have the lap the turned to open you could be alot more swollen and that where your weight is at too! But be proud you already lost 10lbs!!!

Kinsse first I got what's called the Duodenal Switch which is a little more extensive then the gastric bypass. I also eat sugar free pudding and cream soups and also Greek yogurt. It's hard to get anything in really but I do. I also have alot of waters and alot of sugar free Popsicles I haven't really done much different I cannot wait will I can eat food tho! But you have lost 10lbs !! Congrats on that! My goal was to finally get under 300lbs! When I saw that I was 286 I cried I haven't been under 300 In a long time!

I haven't done measurements but my stomach is all deformed and swollen even tho there's weightloss there I feel all extra fat lol although I do notice a collar bone showing lol

You're right we pretty much have same stats I don't want to lose any boobs because they were small to begin with lol but my thighs and booty can shrink lol excited to see more results I don't feel like I'm getting smaller at all tho :/ how are you feeling pain wise ?

Thanks so much I am surprised I don't see the weight loss but but numbers don't lie !!

Thank you I'm ok I have my good day and bad days but I have only taken my pain meds 2 times in the last 3 days

So everyone I am 10days postoperative had surgery on August 6 2013 on that morning I weighed 302 lbs as of today I weight 286!! Omg

Does everyone have to have a c section after having weight loss surgery I've heard conflicting things about this but just curious if its possible to have a vaginal birth after

hey everyone i am like 4 days post op the duodenal Switch there isnt much support groups out there for this because there arent alot of people who get the duodenal switches but its very similar to the RNY anyways i was just curious what premade protein drinks can i drink? i need to go to the store today and get some for these next 4 weeks that im on my stage 1 (full liquids) diet. i have to drink 2 of them day between my breakfast and lunch and between my lunch and dinner... i should have asked the surgeon but i was so set on going home yesterday Friday that i forgot to ask any questions about what i can get until i can order some from off line... Also wondering a good website that has protein shakes that i can order from... Ive heard of protein powder that has no flavor and also heard of one thats like a cheese soup or something/? i have lost all the posts on here that tell you this. id would definitely appreciate it if someone or a few someones could let me know any of this!!! THANKS ALL. AND PLZ NO BAD COMMENTS ABOUT THE SURGERY I CHOSE. THANKS AGAIN

Thanks so much for input I have a paper from what they gave me postoperative and the papers says protein drinks with 20gram to 30grams of protein so I got these premade ones till I get to the gnc store near my house to buy the isopure because that's what my surgeon and nut say are good ones they gave me a list of others but cannot find it anywhere :/ but I like the sound of the orange cream flavor mixing these I have been very regular since my surgery had bm the next morning after surgery anyways I will look into all of these thanks so much again.

Becky it probably is gas pain!! Walk walk walk! It my be painful as hell I know this but it will help trust me I've had (may be tmi) already 4 bms since I been walking more the last 2 days... Helped relieve most my pain except pain on left side where most the incisions were done !!

I'm sore had the DS and won't get home till Friday!!
