ArleneV got a reaction from Kimberly Bouche-Perez in 6 weeks out and still having regret...
By six months out you will be feeling much better. Takes time to adjust.

Doesn't take six months to heal. But I noticed that things got much better and I was able to tolerate more foods after I hit the six month mark.

ArleneV got a reaction from Alex Brecher in BariatricPal Launching Online Store to sell Discounted Bariatric Nutritional Products ? (Vitamins, Protein etc.)
Yes, an online store with discounted products would be awesome.
I would definitely be interested.

ArleneV got a reaction from lvan83 in Can't sleep
I have trouble with insomnia also. I did some research on the web and it seems like it is a problem with gastric bypass patients, but nobody is sure why.
I take Restoril when I get absolutely to the point where I just have to sleep because I am so exhausted.
Trouble is that no mater what you take, be it Ambien, Lunesta, or the Restoril if you take it every single night it will soon stop working.
I am hoping that some day they come out with something better!
Try using magnesium supplements at night. That can help. There is a powdered citrus flavored magnesium supplement called "Calm" that you can get at health food stores. You mix it with Water and drink it in the evening. The powder does fizz when mixed with Water, like an Alka-Seltzer tablet, but don't worry. I checked with my nutritionist and she says this isn't the same as drinking carbonated beverages.
