  1. WoW!!.. Awesome!!.. I can't wait!!.. I need to lose 170 to get to my goal.
  2. U look great!!..if u don't mind, how much have u lost?
  3. I definitely have gas... But it's been coming out, my poor husband!!.. Lol... It's really a concentrated smell!!.. Gas pain was the thing I feared the most after surgery, I heard do much about it. I told my husband I'm letting it out every chance I have because I don't want to suffer... But like I said, my POOR husband.. Lol

  5. Yeah I'm still taking naps!! I get very tired. This is my second day not taking the pain meds. I'm doing well without them. I did take it before bed though because I feel it more when I lay down. I haven't been getting nauseas, which is good.

  7. U should make sure u have whey isolate... It's good quality protein and its more gentle on your stomach, especially if your lactose intolerant!!
  8. I'm only 5 days post op, BUT I have found a protein drink that I love!! It is chocolate protein powder with 2 tablespoons of peanut butter blend in blender!!! It's the BEST!!.. The protein was unjury, I don't know how it tastes without the peanut butter, but it sure tastes good with it
  9. My pain wasn't bad at all!! Everyone is different.. Everyone's surgery is different. I did keep up on the pain meds for the first day, I slept a lot. The second day I didn't want to take to many meds, and what happened was I wasn't taking deep enough breaths because I was in pain, so my oxygen levels were going to low. So I took more pain meds and it helped. I started taking 1/2 the dose because the full dose was knocking me out!! It's been 5 days since surgery and have not taken pain meds for 2 days. I truly don't need them... Has been an awesome experience
  10. I think it's because when your overweight, your always trying to squeeze into a size smaller than what we are... So when we lose it takes longer to get to that smaller size!!
  11. I just had pintos and cheese from Taco Bell... My sis had gastric bypass and suggested it to me.. I did well with it, I added some mild taco sauce and it made it better... I did have it will the small amount of cheese they put on it, maybe next time ill get it without cheese. Extra calories and fat I don't need.. But it has 9 gms of protein
  12. Hi!!.. I had surgery on Monday as well!!.. I have been doing very well!!.. Pain level hasn't been bad, I've been taking half the dose. I can walk without a problem except I get tired easily and some nausea... How has it been for u?
