CINNAMON 2015

Hi, just eat a little bit at a time to see how your body reacts. I also eat sugar free popsicles & sugar free ice cream to satisfy that sweet craving. Good Luck!

Hi, Sorry to hear that you're having such discomfort. I had a Roux N Y Bypass. My Surgeon did it through Laparoscopy 2 years ago & I had no pain what so ever! I had the BEST Dr. Call your surgeon, there is no need for you to be suffering! Good Luck!

Hi, I am 2 years out RNY. Right after surgery I kept weighing myself and obsessing. A couple of weeks after, when I had settled down I was in front of the mirror and it hit me 40lbs. was just gone! It was amazing! I have gained & lost a few lbs here & there and you will hit stalls but they don't last forever. I'm not sorry I did this & I had a fantastic Dr. Good Luck with your program. Just drink your Water, get your Protein in & exercise and you'll be ok!

Are you getting enough Water?

Hi snapy17, Please Please don't get discouraged. A few months after my RNY I started losing hair. Now my hair was long & thick so I didn't think it would happen to me...surprise surprise! It lasted for about 6 months & then stopped. Please try & keep a sense of humor. I used to joke that my house, washer & dryer looked like a dog grooming station! Hang in there & congrats on losing pounds, you'll be ok!

I was told to stay away from Iceberg Lettuce. The others are ok in moderation. Just be prepared that some of your past foods might not agree with you anymore. For me it's Pasta & Rice. I'm a year and a half out. But I don't regret anything & had the most wonderful Dr!

Hi meme21, Please don't despair it happens to all of us. Your body has to adjust to it's new way of life. I have gone a couple of months dropping only a pound or two. Just keep doing what you are doing and it will even itself out. I'm almost 2 years out. Best of luck to you!!

Oh yes, the gas pains were killers! I used some Gas X tablets & walked. It eventually goes away! Hang in there!!

Are you doing your Protein drinks? Like Protein powder shakes?

In the beginning the weight will drop off quickly, but then it will start to tapper off. There may be a few stalls along the way. Towards the end as you reach maintenance phase it will come to a slow crawl. I had RNY gastric bypass and I entered the maintenance phase around month 7.

I don't know, but you are not alone. I've had the cat give me dirty looks!

your pouch probably has not stretched. try doing the pouch reset Plan. the first day drink a Protein shake for Breakfast snack lunch snack dinner and snack on the second day have a shake for breakfast one for snack one for lunch and then do not eat until about 6pm cook a 8 oz chicken breast and eat it slowly. when you start to feel full measure what is left. that will tell you what your pouch is holding. should be about 6 oz. good luck the plan is on the Bariatric Eating.com site along with two different plans to get rid of the regain.

Hi, I started drinking Protein 3 days after surgery, no problems with nausea. If that's his only concern I would just try it & if you have a problem then stop & wait the 3 weeks. Good Luck!

Thank you so much I will definitely give them a try. I was looking for a different brand to try so I will be heading over to Amazon Yani

Hi Tyani, I use the brand Milk shake BAR for my Protein Shakes. They have several flavors, are not gritty, no aftertaste and they even taste good when mixed with water! I get them from Amazon, they are supposed to be available at Whole Foods Market in the beginning of 2017. I also use a drink called Isopure Ready To Drink, they also have several flavors, my favorite is Blue Raspberry. They come in 20 oz bottles and have 40 grams of Protein. They are very good and have no aftertaste. I hope this helps you! Protein Powder. 1-888-582-2580, www.proteinmilkshakebar.com, Best Wishes & Good Luck!!!!

Hi Jennifer, It's Cinnamon again. I just wanted to tell you something else I use and you might like. It's a drink called "Isopure" it's in a 20oz bottle & there is no sugar but it has 40 grams of Protein. It comes ready to drink. They have a variety of flavors but my favorite is Blue Raspberry. They are very good, no after taste. I don't get them from Amazon as they seem to charge more. I got mine from Lucky Vitamin, and I believe they are available at Health food Stores. Hope I didn't bother you, but We gotta have options ya know!!! Lol Cinnamon

No bother at all!!! Thanks for the input. I'm open to anything!

Thank you so much, Cinnamon! I will give it a try!

If you have a cell phone, set an alarm everyday to remind yourself.

Hi, sorry you are having all these issues. I had an issue with throwing up every time I ate something for 3 months after surgery. My surgeon did an endo and loosened the pouch opening a little. I've had no problems since. Good Luck to you, and make those medical people pay attention to you. You deserve the best!
