  1. I found Unjury protein ( the add is at the top of page) and it is wonderful. They have an unflavored and a cheese protein (cheese taste a bit like Kraft Mac & Cheese). It has no after taste that I can detect.. It is a bit pricey but has a 100% money back guarantee. Hope this helps. Their web address is UNJURY.com
  2. Boy my story is almost identical. I never get full and always hungry. I'm down from 254lb to (was) 205lb but am starting to gain. Kind of gave up on nutritionist, Dr and support group (I'm one year out). I had open surgery& 5 months later had another open surgery for bowel obstruction. Don't think I could stand another surgery if I have the same problem. I'm 72 yrs old & surgeries are getting harder to recover from. How did they find you're problem? Thanks for sharing!!
  3. Windy, how much have you lost? Windy, how much have you lost? I've lost 50 lbs but have been at this weight for about 5 or 6 mo. I'm at 204 and can't get below that 200 mark no matter what I do.
  4. Boy that is interesting. I've been on Prilosec for years and was really hoping I'd be able to get off of it after surgery, but haven't been able to. I have no dumping what so ever. Maybe will try to go off meds and see what happens. I hate to admit I need the dumping to help with self-control but I do.
  5. I'm 11months out and have always been able to eat anything, and also don't have the dumping. I've had an upper GI for a bowel obstruction and the pouch is there. Really frustrating
  6. I'm one of those that has stalled at 6 months out. I had Gastric Bypass Jan of this year and have lost 50 lbs and have 45 lbs to go. Can't get below the 200 lb mark--so frustrating!! Main problem I don't have dumping and I don't get full feeling and I don't have problems with any type of food. Any suggestions?

    Tired :(

    My nutritionist said the fatigue is normal and your bodies way of telling you to rest and take the time to heal. I'm finally gradually getting back to feeling normal-still a ways to go-can finally walk for more than 5 min without having to lie down, but its been a slow process. Still get light headed. My surgery was Jan 14th.
  8. I had my GBP January 14. Was put on cardiac ward on 2nd day for very similar symptoms (not as severe). Rapid heart beat or A-fib. Put on a heart calcium Chanel blocker & blood thinner. Cardiologist thinks its temporary and did all kind of tests. Hope to be off meds in 2 or 3 months. Can relate to the extreme fatigue--just now getting stamina back. Good Luck and hang in there!
  9. I still trying to figure out how this blog thing works, may be sending the same reply 2xs. But want to be sure and connect with you. Yes I'm in Parker, Co and am having surgery at Sky Ridge Hospital . Where are you located and where are you having surgery on Mon. Please stay in touch and good luck to you too!!
