    TORe Post Op Diet

    That's a great point...thanks! I will definitely be extending this phase to ensure full healing. Appreciate the post!!
  2. Just wondering what other RNY => TORe patients' Post Op diet transition was like. I did clears for 4 days then started full liquids 2 weeks then I'll do soft/mushies for 2 weeks. I'm seeing other folks extending their soft foods to 3 weeks so I'm wondering if doing that may help overall. I suppose it couldn't hurt, right?
  3. Thanks, @GeorgiaPeach48!! I definitely can use some encouragement. I'm only on day 8 and I'm very hungry and weak as I'm still on full liquids until this Sunday. For some reason this seems so much harder than when I had my original RNY. Definitely seeing the pounds drop on the scale already but looking forward to having some oomph back LOL
  4. I had the TORe procedure on Monday 5/15 and I’m still having some discomfort and pain but the nausea and vomiting have subsided. I can’t wait to see the results.

    How many calories do you eat a day?

    Thank you so much for sharing. I agree that I need to understand the true needs of my body when it comes to protein. I've broken the stall this week and I think it was because I (unintentionally) dropped dairy the past couple days and stepped up the movement/exercise along with water. I'm just relieved to see the scale moving again! My protein dropped to averaging 60 grams instead of 75. Could be on to something!

    Thank you, this helps!! I still use a protein bar or shake and I want to get used to eating more real food. Appreciate you sharing!

    I’m having a hard time getting in my 75 ounces of protein. What does a typical day look like for you? I’d love some new ideas for ways to get up to 85 or 90 grams!!

    Thank you! Appreciate you sharing. This is definitely not a sprint and I’m in it for the long haul. Figuring out how this body works at my age is definitely a daily learning experience. 😌
  11. Went from a DD to D and now C. I haven’t worn a C cup since 6th grade. This is a bit hard for me.

    March Bypass Buddies

    Stalled again at almost 5 months out. For about 2 1/2 weeks so far. I'm 50 pounds down but wishing this stall hadnt hit now. Onederland is only 22 pounds away and I'm feeling discouraged. Not really sure the best thing to do so I'm going back to supplementing my mini meals with protein shakes and ~700 calories per day. At least for a few days. I admit my water intake has been poor over the past 2 weeks and I will push to ensure I get my 64-72 in today. Does anyone have any other ideas for stall busters???

    30 lbs loss

    I’ve lost a little over 50 and I’m seeing friends this weekend that haven’t noticed. Or if they have didn’t say a word.

    I had my Gastric Bypass reversed 😞

    Alex, sending prayers for complete and quick healing!
  15. I had my highest carb day today too and it was mostly all sugar. I’m 3 1/2 months out and ordered a Starbucks coffee that had 160 calories. I logged it and THEN after tasting it thought wow this is pretty sweet. It had 30 grams of sugar!!! I had no dumping and really no ill effects. I kind of wish I did!
