  1. Ok. Thanks guys, this will surely help me. Going to the store RIGHT NOW!
  2. Oops my surgery was April 2014.
  3. Hello everyone, my surgery was April 30, 2013. I had the Gastric bypass in which my intestines were re-arranged. I'm having a major problem using the bathroom (no. 2) sorry. Does anyone have any suggestions on what to take on a regular basis to have bowel movements. I find myself pushing a lot but nothing happens unless I take a laxative to help me out. On a better note I have moved from a size 16 to a 12. I'll assume it could be more if I can regularly empty my body! Thanks
  4. Good to hear you're feeling better. I'm having a hard time with water as well. I'm sure we will get better as time goes by. Congrats to u!
  5. Congrats I can't wait! Good luck to u!
  6. I had my surgery on April 30 and I have to make myself eat. For some reason I'm not hungry at all. I know I need to eat but the portions are even smaller than what is required. I'm sure I will get better. Good luck to you!
  7. Thanks sounds real good. I'm in my purée stage. Can't wait to try these!
  8. Hey, no wearing a bra has not affected me at all.
  9. Don't let it stress u out. Just do your best and it all will work out. Best of luck to u!
  10. Thanks RNBSN786...I'm back on the right trail now. Though it's still hard for me to get 32 ounces in I'm going to put my best foot forward. Thanks for the encouragement and best of luck to u!
  11. I had surgery on April 30. For some reason I am not hungry. I have been trying to get at least the water in. On yesterday I ate 2 chicken mc nuggets and I chewed and chewed and chewed because it was the closet thing I could get to protein. I pray that I have not messed up because I really wNt this to work. Under the circumstances that was the only thing I could get in because of other issues I'm dealing with. Today I'm doing much better back at home and not so stressed. I was able to get a protein drink in and so far that is all. No criticisms please I already feel horrible.
  12. Hi I had that same feeling as well. U will be fine as long as u have lost some weight. Congrats and god bless.
  13. Hello my date is April 30.
