Ok, I am 1 month out and today I had me first experience with dumping..... Funny thing is, today was the first day I got to eat cereal and I got Special K protein plus and it was no bueno:( I was so excited to eat cereal and am a little crushed. Anybody have this experience and what foods triggered it? I'm scared to eat anything but egg whites and cottage cheese:/

I feel your pain!! My in laws are here and making tacos and all kinds of yummy Mexican food!! And they ask me if I want any cause they forget:( ugh....stay strong!!

That's awesome! Ive only lost 12 pounds:( I thought I'd have lost more but I guess everybody is different. I started walking yesterday so hopefully that will help. Keep up the good work I can't wait till like 6 months from now and see the progress... We are gonna have to post our pics!!!

How's the diet going? I've been lucky no nausea yet....knock on wood! Lol! Can't wait to eat actual food. I've tried yogurt, cottage cheese, and an egg. Wanted to know what you've been trying and how everything is going.

Doing well, I'm able to get enough in. As much as I'm supposed to. Living off of jello, water, and protein drinks:) I have a drain in till tomorrow, can't wait to have it out.

Pupichupi how are you feeling?? I'm home and other then some pain I'm doing well. Just curious to know how things are!! I hope good!

I'm a horrible sleeper too.... I worked almost 3 years graveyard shift because I figured I might as well make money. In the long run it was a bad idea and I take trazadone to help me sleep. My rhuemotologist is a bitch.... She attributes all my problems to my weight so I can't wait till I lose weight and can finally get to the source of my issues.... That an a new doctor might not be a bad idea! Haha

Omg!! Thanks a billion!! Hit the spot! So yummy! I love this place it has more then just support????

I'm so excited and nervous! I just want to be done.... I'm not looking forward to the pain but I'm so willing to endure it for a chance to be happy and healthy. I am not on a liquid diet, just high protein and low carb. But I've really been drinking protein shakes and eating cottage cheese and eggs. The worst part is I just started my period and I want CHOCOLATE! So bad! Good luck on your journey and keep us updated:)

I didn't want to take lyrica because of the possible weight gain. I've tried everything and I'm on Lexapro and Cymbalta. But the only thing that takes the edge off is hydrocodone. And it totally is a catch 22 because it is so painful to exercise.... Especially afterwards, it feels like my muscles just tighten up and I can hardly move:/

My doctor said Celebrex is ok to take.... Maybe ask?

You look amazing and I hope I have similar results!! Having more energy would be amazing as well!

La lily, if you don't mind me asking.... What seems to help with your fibro pain? I am always looking for different options:)

Yeah that's the plan unless the procedure doesn't go as plan. But he says that rarely happens

It's high protein low fat and carbs.... 1200 calories a day. Then 48 hour liquid diet. I think all doctors are different
