Talk to you doc about meds for IBS they will help. I take Levsin and the diarrhea has stopped.

Check out Bariatriceating.com go their menu they have tons of great recipes

A 10k March 19th and a half marathon May 1. This is the first time I will have participated in anything activity wise.

Let me just add some things I eat I am 3.5 months out and have been released to eat almost everything except salad and steak. Eggs, cream of wheat, Greek nonfat yogurt, all kinds of cheese, low sodium lunch meat, potato, avocado, humus, chicken, Pork roast, cooked fresh veggies, sugar free pudding, almond milk, inspire protein, quest protein bars, cauliflower rice, tofu. Almost anything my sleeve will tolerate. My favorite treat is 1 cup unsweetened almond milk, vanilla protein and a sugar free Crush orange packet blended with ice it tastes like an orange dream Popsicle!

Low bp, get your fluids in and sodium.

So I know my doc told me to wait 30 minutes before and after eating to start drinking again, but should I be waiting longer after I eat? I still feel full in the bottom part of my stomach but am also thirsty. Sleeved on 10-13-15

I refinanced my home and took the money that was needed from the equity.

I am 3.5 months out and have lost 38 pounds. HW 246 SW 224 CW 186. 5'8" I not only stall but go up and down with my weight. I have not had a consistent weight loss since surgery. This past week I had a 4 pound gain. Which I know is not possible because I eat 900-1100 calories daily and run 3-4 miles daily and strength train 2-3 days a week. I only weigh myself once a week because I feel so discouraged. But I know to stay positive because I have gone from a women's 20 to a size 14.

I am 3 months post op and I just started getting 1000 cals a day, I also have started running again and training for a half marathon, so I make a great protein shake in the am which is between 300-400 cals. When you are eating healthy it is harder to get in 1000cals a day. Don't worry so much about calories right now Focus on fluids and protein the rest will fall into place as time passes.

I am 3 months post op and am starting to train to do my first 5k. I notice after about 4 hours after I workout I am really hungry. I do come home and have a protein shake and also 3 ounces of chicken later for dinner. But still feel so hungry ( tummy growling, headache). Any advise on eating while starting my training. My goal is 1/2 marathon the end of May for my 37th birthday.

Just signed up for my first 10k in 10 weeks and a half marathon on May 1st.

Thanks this will help. I think some of my problem right now is I am not hydrating and I am confusing my thirst for hunger.

Dang girl you look like you have lost half of your weight already, you look younger too! You are doing super keep up what you are doing cause you are doing in right!

Is this thick? Is there a chemical smell or taste? Need a new product and not sure what to buy. Thanks in advance

When I feel full or something stuck after eating I still walk, walk, walk

Low carb diets will mess with a good night sleep, especially in the beginning

High protein snacks! Cottage cheese, ham and cheese rolls, a few bites of a quest protein bar, It am almost three months post op and my monthly cravings are awful I eat bad each time. Next month I am going to make a fruit and yogurt smoothie and see if that helps my sweet tooth because cookies and chocolate will kill me in the long run.

No pain and no nausea, that just means you are taking small enough sips! Keep doing what you are doing because you are doing it right!

I just sent you a request also

Will you add me? I would love to join. I was sleeved 10-13. 526melissag is my user name

Thanks for clearing this up for me.

While reading some of the posts I have read that people have tried the five day pouch test. What are they talking about? Also what is NSV, I think those were the abbreviations, the topic would be about NSV on such and such date.
