April 2013 Post-Op Group
Karl 15 replied to Wendilou's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hey everyone first day home from the hospital. Overall I feel good but I'm having a hard time getting my protein in Its taken me several hrs. to drink one protein drink then I feel bloated and nauseous for along time afterwards. Does anyone have any suggestions? Please help. -
Had surgery on April 3 went a lot better then I expected. Get out of bed and walk the halls . Trust me it will hurt like hell but it jump starts the healing and helps with tha pain.my surgeon was surprised on my recovery . I'm not bragging. I just wanted to pass on something that helped me. The journey has begun!

You will be fine I got home from the hospital today. I was also nervous before. My only advice is stay on tract,and force yourself to get up and start walking believe me you'll thank yourself later you will boost your healing process. Any questions please ask that's what all of us are here for we all need support (buddies) to help each other succeed

Lactose Intolerance or something else?
Karl 15 replied to Meintraining's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
Bodyfortress whey protein isolate is 98% lactose free it is the only one I can tolerate. I'm also lactose intolerant so when I found this it made life better I can get enough protein. Also are you taking b-12? You may be low. -
I am having surgery next week and I'm a little concerned since I have severe osteoarthritis in both knees and can hardly walk at times. Does anyone have any helpful suggestions?

Thank you! I do plan on trying some water exercises as soon as I can after surgery.

It's not as bad as you would think especially after the first couple days.I have been on the liquids for 7 days & I have 9 to go. The protein keeps you feeling full just make sure you don't drink water during or 1/2 hr after it helps -

Has anyone during the liquid diet experience a short temper? I haven't felt hungry everything else seems fine. -
I'm not going to lie it's tuff mostly because of favorite smells. Not hungry it's head hunger just be strong and focus on the prize. Start setting small goals now it'll help later
