  5. Ok so I'm three days away from my two month post op mark. I'm so worried cause I haven't lost anymore weight and I'm adding new foods. I'm worried that ill gain weight or that I've lost all I'm going to lose. Preop weight was 236 current post op 195. I was so happy to reach 195 and now I'm worried cause the scale has not moved in weeks. I do Pilates and strength training for toning. I am a lot more active. I am however under a lot of stress. I broke out in hives last night and had to go to ER and get a shot. It was a steroid! The doc said I had no choice because of the rash. So now I'm really panicking. Steroids equal weight gain. I know the shot is temporary and won't last but a day or so but I don't need any help gaining! I guess my question is am I losing weight at a normal rate? Have I stalled? Help! My goal is 145 realistically but really want 135. I do drink tea with sweetnlow and water with crystal lite. Only one slice of toast a day with sugar free jelly. Any ideas?

  8. I hated it when I felt like I had no energy. My iron and b12 helped. I'm 6 weeks out or so.
  9. Dumping is horrible!!! I've had it happen daily because I have yet to learn how to slow down to eat. But I had a horrible dumping episode tonight and I thought I was going to pass out! Stay away from dumping!!! It's horrible!

  11. What happens if you don't get all your protein in? My surgery buddy and I are having the same issue. Not many we can tolerate. I just look at my protein and throw up. Sorry TMI. Any help would be appreciated.
  12. What does the liquid protein taste like?
  13. Dumping is not fun. Almost everything I am supposed to eat doesn't want to go down or goes down and wants to come back up. It feels like your trying to throw up sticks. It's so uncomfortable. It doesn't feel like it does presurgey. I have never been one to throw up but I went to a restaurant with my family and had two bites of mashed potatoes and had to run to the bathroom. Some times it hits quick and others it takes a min or two. My surgery buddy n has the same issue. It's like we can't move on with our schedule of foods we are supposed to eat. But I guess what makes it ok is that food is hardly ever on my mind nor do I have cravings! And that's awesome!
  14. That's not far. I love BCS. Ill be in the temple area soon!
  15. Has anyone or does any know if the south region covers plastic surgery after RNY and if so how long after surgery. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
  16. See your PCM every month for six months or you may be able to find a RNY education group you can see either through your surgeons office or at your surgeons office. I did that and it worked.
  17. I have tricare but I heard once you have one you can't have another. But I'm sure there's away around it. What region are you in. Ill ask around and see what I can find out.
  18. Most problems are that most if us only work one muscle of the arm. We need to work all of them. Massage helps and also they offer cellulite massage at some spas that you can get in your arms, or a body wrap.
  19. Check out some if the protein ideas on here. Like the tasteless ones. Isopure is one drink u may want to try. It has like 40gm protein.
  20. Yes it's great! Your face will feel like a babies bottom. It erases fine lines and dark spots. Worth it!
