Sad but cute
They said it's a waiting game kinda...pain medications for now. I am not feeling well at all though. I tried eating felt immediately nauseous and I can barely drink my stomach is gurgling a lot I think there's something else wrong with me. I have a Drs appointment tomorrow and I can barely eat or drink not even 12 ounces today and a bite of tuna that's it!!

Yeah they said it's Omentum. I guess it's a fatty tissue not getting good enough blood causing me pain. Thanks!!

Question about Probiotics

Evening/Night Hunger Tips
My doctor says with the surgery you don't have certain times to eat so if you have your snack at 10 that's fine. I barely eat three times a day but I'm hungry but if I go to fridge I don't want it so weird. If I look at chili/beans Again I might gag lol hopefully that goes way!!

The thoughtless comments
My boyfriend and I have been together since we were 16 we have a 13 year old daughter and she is overweight. Really overweight more than me! I cook still for them seperatley than what I eat. I feed them healthy dinners and here and there will cook them a regular dinner but my boyfriend knows and he is a big guy when I went for surgery things were going to change for my daughter!! He is 100% committed to eating healthy for my daughters health. Of course there will be days that will be a treat for them parties,weddings,holidays ect.. But everyday cooking will be healthy. Any left overs my boyfriend will bring them to work the next day so there will never be any waste. For instance it's a start but I made empanadas today instead of frying I baked them with instead of Hamburg I used turkey Hamburg. They loved it so still have what you love just portion size and make it a little healthier!! Wish I had that mind set before surgery

Ice cream?
Thanks everyone I appreciate it. Oh no problem I don't mind criticism it honestly doesn't bother me whatsoever not being mean though. I never ate ice cream barely .... Just craving something cold and fruity so since I am not allowed fresh fruit didn't know if there was a ice cream fruity that we can have that can substitute that craving for fruit. I been sucking on lemons daily so bad like 2 a day!! lol haven't had any issues so yes a lot of my questions are about food that's why I am here learning how to eat see what people eat yes I know see a nutritionist I am but only so many questions I can ask in a visit. Also like to get others opinions as well!! I also tried to update my profile and I can't it doesn't allow me to but thanks yes I am 7 weeks out gastric bypass and on solid foods at this point. Just can't have raw vegetables or fresh fruit yet. Thanks though!!
