The pb and j muffins recipe is off of the world according to efface website! I do not have the recipe on hand but you can find it there along with some other great ideas!

I think it's the caffeine carbonation and other stimulates in the cokes! My handy dandy book from my dr office said if it is an absolute must to have a carbonated beverage let it go flat then drink it. Changing subjects here but I found a pb and j jelly muffin for rny people and it sounds sooo good!

Oh !

Amy I don't drink coffee but a diet dr pepper sure woul be great! I don't remember what is the reason why we can't have caffeine?

Soup is the last thing I want to eat! I would rather have my strawberry protein shake . I am going to have to look up some recipes to get my protein in.

I am on a crystal light kick! I crave the lemonade version but it helps me get all of my water in! I am tired of having to think of things to eat! It's not like you can eat a whole lot of anything so to me cooking is a waste!

I wore pants today and for me that was a milestone! I could actually tell that I had lost. I will be on reg foods this coming Thursday and I think I am ready ! Not too sure what to eat though I guess make sure it's protein packed. I know nuts are allowed but how far out do we gastric bypass people have to be before we try them?

I am sorry to hear about your mom and dad! I was insulin dependent diabetic and on blood pressure meds high cholesterol etc ! I had the bypass for those reasons and I also had what I thought was a polyp in my stomach and we took that out but it turned out to be a stromal tumor that could turn into cancer! I only have my pouch left . I am praise The Lord on no medications at this time so I made the right choice. Also I had problems with reflux so the sleeve would have made it worse.

Did you have the gastric bypass or sleeve? I am glad you are in your 40s that makes us more in the same page than if you were a whole lot younger! How did you get off track with your eating I can't eat too much right now!

I had surgery December 11th

Right now I just walk because that is all that I'm allowed until six weeks out! I usually walk with a friend after work but I haven't started that yet! My surgeon was dr Primomo with the Davis Clinic in Houston! Reop weight 293 cw is 262 and I would like to weigh around 135 to 145 so I have a long way to go! I am 47 yrs old and I have two girls one is a RN and married the other is 20 and in college four hrs away! Tell me some more about yourself!

I DO NOT like to throw up and will do everything to avoid it! I too am having head hunger and I am on soft food! one thing I am liking is the restriction even though I would love to eat more I can't . try to find something you like that is healthy like baked fish etc. But like you what I wouldn't give to have a burger and fries from mcdonalds!

I live in mauriceville. ????

Do you mind telling me what town?

Wait, we can eat Pasta? I thought that wasn't allowed. I am so confused on what to eat. Like I eat protien only....I never have room for anything else. Like dinner tonight I took 2 slices of lean turkey from the deli, mixed it with some plain greek yogurt, sprinkled some garlic powder, dried onions and some shredded cheese. It was decent...but that was it....a 1/3 of a cup pretty much. Breakfast was one scrambled egg and lunch was greek yogurt with protien powder mixed in....am I eating right? So confusing!! Your eating right! I was not told I could have bread the gastric bypass but if they have the sleeve they prolly can have it! I tried Greek yogurt today and threw it in the garbage it was yucky to me ! I am gonna go look at the website theworldaccordingto egg face to get some ideas I food!

Hopingnomeds so sorry to hear your in the hospital but at least it's fixed now!

Jenn I live 20 min from bmt towards Louisiana so we are very close! I could be your buddy!

I am on the soft food phase but my stomach is wanting to act up on me now! I found that pan seared flounder set very well on my stomach everything else feels heavy! I have only tried corn tortillas but no crackers or bread! My booklet of instructions say breads will not sit well at this point! I think when your pouch is older maybe but then again everyone is different!

I was just thinking how many blogs can you go on to talk about gas, bloating, constipation, and all if the other issues!!!

Yes I took some last night tasteless etc. We shall see how it does! I am still not feeling normal! So for now no soft foods just protein drinks water etc!

I am using miralsx and I know tmi but I finally just used a suppository and it worked! I was miserable and I had to do something

I am having problems with constipation as well and I am not feeling my best! I am glad you posted about the fiber gummies I will have to get some of those and take with my miralsx.

I find myself being really fickle about my food! Like when y'all are talking about being not hungry I have to come up with things I can both have and want! Very hard!

Pink pearl bites would be fab! But I suppose I better use the small one on the end of a pencil as an idea if how small the bites are! Lol

The one on a pencil although I would rather it be the big pink eraser! Lol
