  1. I'm 3 months post op and I'm doing pretty well (30lbs down) but all of a sudden I'm having difficulty keeping food down. At first I thought it was when I was picking up quick fast food but then today, it was eating grilled Egg whites for breakfast and tilapia for lunch. None of it would stay down. But when I ate a pretzel I was just fine. Is anyone having the same response to food?

    Am I eating too much?

    I am having the same experience. I'm only 3 weeks postop but my doc put me on solids last week. Each day I feel hungrier but when I enter my calories, I'm not eating as many calories as it feels. I do get full but I eat again a few hours later. I'm get more active every day (5 miles walking, back at work, etc....) trying to find filling food where I don't feel like I'm eating as much.

    Bruising

    I'm 3weeks postop and I still feel bruised. I know I went back to work (week2) early but I don't have to move around a lot. Does anyone feel like this after 3 weeks?

    Bruising

    Thank you ladies so much. I'm thinking I'm doing something wrong.
  5. I'm 15 days banded and I'm doing really well. My cycle is about to start and that's when I indulge in sweets. Are there there any suggested "treats" besides jello? I need something to pack for work!

    Gas, Gas, & more Gas

    It took a week + for the gas to go away. 1) gas x is your friend 2) if it's in your shoulder do some arm circles it helps move it in that area and3) keep walking! The gas will pass!! Keep it up

    Puree Diet Suggestions Please!

    I was (and still am) worried abOut getting the protein in. I bought the protein drink by syntax called Nectar. I like the tropical cool (it tastes like a piña colada). And add water. I use blackberry hint water. It has 23 grams of protein in a scoop. I try to drink 3 a day. Just to help with the protein.

    HUNGRY!

    I'm 9 days banded and have been on creamed soups, protein shakes and liquids. But today I have been HUNGRY all day. I'm not trying to cheat but I have to admit I made some mashed potatoes. Is this normal?
  9. I like the tropical cooler. Tastes just like a piña colada and I found pineapple flavored water. Delicious!
