Thank you ladies!! I'm trying I go to my 6 week appointment on Thursday and I talk to the doctor and the dietician. So hopefully they can help me. I'm still going to work out and try like hell to get 60 grams of Protein, but this whole constipation thing isn't fun at all. Since I can't/wont allow my self to go bake a Hershey's chocolate cake I will go work out lol to stop felling sad

I'm a little a month and I'm actually getting depressed, discouraged and flat out regretting getting the surgery. I have lost 16lb since my surgery and that happened in the first 2 weeks, I went for my 2 week check up and I was 321.5. I got on the scale this week and I had GAINED 1.7lbs!! Now I haven't done things to the "T" but it's no where near to me gaining weight(mainly not able to get all my Protein I get close). I log my food and I know I get less than 500 calories a day. So what the heck??!! I have been bloated and constipated and that makes me angry. I just don't know. I know this is a tool but I feel like it's not working for me right now. I started working out but had to hold off till my open wound was healed. So now I can't eat much at all,can't do Protein shakes cause it makes my nauseated so I'm eating meat cheese and eggs and can't take a crap!! I'm so annoyed pissed off depressed and I really want to eat something really bad but can't cause I wont go down so yeah I got problems right now!!

I like bread but since I can only have 25 net carbs I don't wanna waste it

When did you all start eating bread again? I'm scared of bread ...even though a love it I'm scared about it swelling in my pouch

Yay!!! Congrats

I like the show. Penny was...well a hard one to watch. I was angry at her for being so lazy. Prime example of you have to be ready for this no one can want it for you. I actually think this motivates me to do better..seeing the success and the fails.

That does help...thank you

Well I'm 4 weeks out almost and I haven't been on the scale since my 2 week appointment. I got on it today and it hasn't moved. I really want to be under 300 before the month end. 21lbs to go I started working out so hopefully that helps..any other suggestions to help

I had dumping with Tropicana oj ...so sad I like oj

I think the recovery from the sleeve was worse than my c section. I didn't have any complications with my c section but with my appendectomy and this surgery I had to get re opened due to infection with the appendectomy and a hematoma with this one. So to me from worse to not so bad appendectomy, sleeve then c section lol

I feel tons better today. I really think I'm just waiting too long between eating. I ate Breakfast this morning which was a scrambled egg and cheese ( I ate half of it) then probably 2 hours later I got hungry and at some turkey lunch meat and cheese. so today seems to be way better than yesterday.

I can't they make me I'll too

So today I have been so nauseated. It seems to go away when I eat but hit me when I'm hungry. I'm I just a weirdo or is this something someone else experience

Hey all!! I'm in Nashville and I had my surgery on 12/4 at St Thomas Midtown by Dr. McDowell.!! I'm up for buddies too!!

It sucks that you don't have any support system at home or even a nutritionist. Sometimes you have to be your own cheerleaders your own support. You have to encourage yourself. Family can hurt you worse than strangers. When they make fun of you and waive food in your face get up and leave. I know this surgery wasn't a complete choice of yours like the rest of us how we thought it through and researched but you got it now and it's up to you to see it through. I know I have eaten things that I shouldn't but the thing is tomorrow is a new day and time to try again. Good luck!!!

Well I didn't hear about till I joined here. I'm waiting on my first order to come in. Since my stomach can't handle the shakes anymore I need the extra help. So I can only hope and pray it is what they say it is. Right now I use the unjury unflavored but I'm still not eating enough to reach my goals. Yesterday was the first day I completed meals and still only got 38g of protein.

I'm almost 4 weeks and I had a deviled egg...just chew the mess out of the whites

@@MyssJones I don't know yet.. right now I feel like I can do the elliptical but probably once I get on it I will fall off lol..

I had 2 bbq meat balls that took me 30 mins to eat for Christmas eve lol then for Christmas dinner I had 1 1/2 deviled eggs and a fork of chicken tetrazzini that I chewed for 5mins lol.. merry Christmas to me lol

Hello all I got sleeved on 12/4 and I'm from TN. Haven't started going back to the gym yet... had some complications. But I'm ok now starting Monday if all goes well!!

stacking sucks....I think the reason it happens to me is my food isn't "wet" enough

I do put the powder in..but the powder I have is the genepro...which I'm gonna get lol

I'm almost 3 weeks out.. and Protein shakes make my ill. I can't drink them anymore. My doctor suggested that I get some powder and put it in everything I eat. Which I do but I still don't know how much I'm getting in. I actually cried last night because I feel like I made a mistake and I'm not doing right. I was so happy I ate an 5 oz thing of greek yogurt the other day and it took me 3 1/2 hours to do so. I understand @@April4 feeling bad reading the post here. I felt/feel awful that I still can't drink a freaking Protein shake lol and people that are around the same time post I'm get that in...I struggle just to eat in general. but I have to tell myself if will get better soon. I will be able to get in my protein some how some way!!

I'm 3 weeks out and just was able to eat cream of wheat and it hits me hard.. 3 baby spoons and I'm full for hours...i try not to eat it often but I also put unflavored protein powder...i can't handle the protien shakes anymore...premade or powder

I also have a 30+ 2yr old and when I got out of the hospital I was at my mom's. ..but my son was very clingy...but luckily he climbed most of the way...I'm about 3 weeks out and I pick him up very little and when I do I left with my legs. It's hard having toddlers at this stage. .heck it's hard period lol
