I so under I don't go back to work till April 18 I am a nurse so I use to been busy and taking care of others as well but now I just feel all my emotions because I am home bored n I have alot of time to think back then I didn't have the time because I was always busy

Thanks u guys, I am really trying to get thru it, I am trying to stay positive

What do u guys do wen u feel like giving up I am 1 wk and 3 days post op and sometimes I feel like I should have not got it done I just turned 24 March 21, had surgery March 17 and this whole time I just been in the house except for when I take my walk around the neighborhood I am so stress out, I get the cravings that I want food and right now I am full liquids and puree food

I am done ok I have some good days n I have some bad days sometime I feel like I want some pizza or other things that I am craving but then I think about the outcome I am trying to get to

I am week and one day post op I am doing the puree phase for 8 wks and the full liquids, I haven't really got into the protein shakes but I did do it for 2 days I had to stop because I went a wk without having a bm n today I had my first one so now I can go back to the protein shakes but I think u would like this one tho because u can add what u want to it, I blend mine in a blender I add 2% milk strawberries and bananas

This is a good protein u can get because u can add ur flavor I put banana and strawberries in mines and it's goo

That's y I got the rny instead of the sleeve because with rny if u eat something that u r not suppose to u will get the dumping syndrome so this gave me a better opportunity to not go back to foods that I am not suppose to or I will be throwing up for 30 minutes to hour, it gives u more discipline, I am a week and 1 day post op, i am shock u were even able to take a piece, because I am still on like a full liquid diet/puree

Ok thanks I have to go get me some because now I am constipated

Try this protein powder it is actually good u can add milk to it and any fruits and it taste good, I didn't think I would like it but when I put banana and strawberries in there it hit the spot I put it in the blender and blend it all

I am a week post op and haven't had a bm I did mirlax two days ago and today what else can I do, I don't feel constipated and i still don't feel like I have to go I have been passing gas tho

That's how I be feeling to and it don't matter if I sip n eat slowly I still get them

Thank u , I hope so to even if I take a little sip I still have them even it I just put a drop on my tongue I still have em

Why was it so rough, I actually have been ok just struggling with liquids and protein, also since the bypass it's seem like I can't sleep like I have developed insomnia I don't go to sleep until around 3 or 4 am n before I had the surgery I was able to go around 10 no later then 12

I got mines from Walmart u have to read the small wording it will say no sugar added instead of directly saying sugar free

Ok thanks for the help cause taken sips just don't quench my thirst and i was afraid to take a big one because I didn't know what would happen but if it's cramps I can deal with u no us woman goes thru cramp every month lol How long since u had the surgery

Ok so sometimes u did take bigger sips

How has it been going r u able to get ur 75 -90 proteins down and ur 64oz of fluids, and r we allowed to drink apple juice as a fluids

Yes with the by pass it's hard to swallow and if I drink to fast I get hiccups and cramps, but I don't understand how they want u to stay hydrated wen it's hard to swallow n it impossible to get 64oz fluids a day I only get 4 oz and so right now I feel thirsty and need to gulp some fluids sown but it want allow me so what do I do if I am extremely thirsty

Thank u, I know I am motivated

How far u r

Yes it sugar free, I can only drink 1 oz of it tho, I really didn't drink pops so I don't have that craving,

Yes I have gas x but I still get them, was u able to drink apple juice as a fluids or does it have to much sugar

5 days post op

I am having a hard time getting me fluids down, it takes me all day to drink one 4 oz cup like 10 hours, even if I sip I get real bad hiccups

@cnjashton u said it took 25 minutes to drink a 4 oz, it takes me all day I am really having a hard time getting my fluids down, even if I drink a little sip I get the hiccups
