  8. Hello everyone, I'm doing ok. Having problem eating meat or chicken, eggs and fish, I drink a protein shake a day, and eating nuts etc. I'm thinking to try vegetarian diet but I'm worry about getting all the protein we need. Also I'm loosing tons of hair, I do have a lot but my hair look dead. Also in doing ok on vitamin but I forget to take calcium. I lost 65lbs I'm at 149 now but I stalled for a month. I can't find energy to work out, Hoping I can get on a good routine when the kids start school!
  9. Some problem! I'm at 4 months, I can't eat no meat or chicken. Trying to look at a vegetarian eating plan
  10. I'm at 4 month, bypass and I can't eat meat or chicken, it hurt until it come out ???? I'm worry about the protein intake. Do you guys make it to 60-80 gr?
  11. I'm having the same problem, I'm at 4 month, bypass and I can't eat meat, chicken or eggs. Some fish is ok but not all the time. How to get all of those proteins in? Getting tired of shakes and protein bars.
  12. What % should be protein, carbs and fats? Do you know? I'm confuse about that
  13. I heard that he is very popular, but I really liked dr. Sanchez. In Ventura.
  14. Well that doesn't rule out stricture, I had a stricture after 4 weeks, the only way they see it was because I insist so much on having an endoscopy, when finally the gastroenterologist told me I had a stricture, my scar tissue build up so much I had a pin hole left for food and water to go down. It took them 4 weeks to figure out after mri and xray with liquid. Didn't show until I had an endoscopy.
  15. How did you rule out a stricture?
  16. Thank you! I do drink but if I drink too much water then I can't eat! My stomach is very small, I get nauseated if I drink too much, I try my best to get 64oz a day!I try dulcolax I was so sick, dizzy etc
  17. Sorry I got confuse with sugar, no protein the only reason I was eating it was for constipation, but they don't work. I only had 2 not the all serving size, which contains 20gr of sugar. Yes gentle move is the only thing that help, I'm using it only every other day. Driving lots of water.
  18. I had about 2 migraines episodes a week, it was terrible, nausea and pain until I took meds and go on a dark room for awhile, I never figure it what was causing it, since my surgery I don't have it anymore. I'm very happy about it! I start to have migraines about 20 years ago, I was 17
  19. Yes I remember that too! I'm still little frustrated with food, but all went well! And yes I'm happy when I see myself. No more high blood pressure, no more migraines, no more sleep apnea . Yeahhh
  20. How much sugar a day we can take? For 6 prunes, is 20gr of protein, I try and eat only 2. I'm hoping helps with constipation
  21. I had gastric bypass 3 months ago, can I eat dry prunes?
