I take 11 total. 3 prescribed, fish oil and biotin by choice and the rest so 6 bypass requirement. I take them all in the morning dividing into four swallows. Never had a problem : )

I know we can never take ibuprofen again, but what else? Can we take sleep aids?

I had pain for 2 weeks and could only lay on my back. It was a Horrible pulling, burning pain where the bigger incision was from my belly button to the left side.

agree 100% vodka for me too

Two reasons because I was set on the sleeve. Reflux...I've dealt with that and heartburn for years doc said it would worsen with the sleeve. Secondly, I didn't like the idea of my stomach exiting my body. I was told that in the event of an emergency they can reverse the bypass. Can't do that if the stomach is gone. So those were my to deciding factors.

Lmao!!! Totally chuckled thx ; )

poor baby you've had a tough time. Beat wishes : )

I eat twice a day and a ton of sugar free popsicle. That's all I get hungry for. Along with my 2 shakes and water ughhh the water is the toughest part.

I had bypass but did have horrible horrible pain. Week 3, it was gonnnnnneeee completly just gone!! Hang in there

See how u feel. Everyone is different. Personally I had breath taking pain for 2 weeks. Hurt very badly. Not to mention the fatigue too. Hopefully you won't have that but if u do, you won't be able to work. Good luck

Pain. I had horrendous pain for 2 weeks post op. Also not being able to lay on my sides was offle. 3rd week pain was gone and I could sleep any way I wanted : )

Waisted belts? As in belts? I have a few I've gotten from torrid I think they are waisted belts : )

3 of my friends have had the band. Not successful with all 3, not to mention everything they eat or drink comes back up.

I craaaaaaaved peanut butter about week 2. I ate a couple spoonfulls, I was fine

Wow, awesome!! You look amaze!! Such inspiration, thank u

k thank you : )

Thx girls

ok great ty I need to cut down a tad.

Just get back on the saddle again. Today is a new day, start again. It will be ok and you can do this!! We all have our weak moments.

I did. I bought about 10 new outfits on line. Just went with larges. Haven't even tried anything on yet.

Should we (gastric bypass) be consuming? I was never really told. Im averaging 500-700 calories a day, which includes 60 grams of protein and about 50 oz of water. It is the hardest to consume all 64 Oz of water, water actually hurts my stomach. Thank you ; )

I just bought some hummus but don't like eating it alone. What did u mix it or eat it with? it would help if I read further. Got it : )

don't be sad buttercup your always so positive. It's gonna be ok, you'll see!! This is a process and you are bound to start loosing, my god we eat so little!! Stay on track

You'll be ok. Your body has been through a lot. I had a stall week 3 then lost again slowwwwwly. Just stay on track and it will be ok good luck!!
