I am 16 months post op but I can eat anything. Normally when I don't have a lot of time in the morning I eat a nature valley bar and a banana (with about 30 minutes in between) if I have time I do boiled egg with slice of toast with Peanut Butter. Of I'm being lazy I get a egg mcmuffin and eat half. Save the other half for the next day. On the weekends I make kodiac pancakes (high on protein) what I have learned about my stomach is that I can eat a full healthy meal in intervals. Remember you are eating way less regardless and will be fine. But I need your Protein and nutritions. I lost too much weight and finally am back to where I want to be. It's easy to forget that we have to eat healthy as much as possible. I love junk food and candy and I do not deprive myself from anything, however o eat so much healthier now than I ever did because if I don't my body feels weak and I look and feel sickly. Good Luck

Haleymarie, don't stress! Stalls are normal. I went through a 30+ day stall starting at 3 weeks. I wanted to cry!! I thought for sure the surgery didn't work! Today, I wanted to cry again...but this time in joy. At 13 weeks post-op, I'm down 50.8lbs! (15 of it was prior to surgery, but I still count it!) Throw away the scale!! For me, it was an epic reminder of past failed weigh loss attempts and made me feel awful about myself. I stopped getting on it, until I felt my clothes getting looser - then I knew I may have a loss and I would jump on. Keep your chin up! It WILL come off!

You are doing just fine! I had the same up and down days but I realized as long as those extra calories are good calories and not junk food (I've eaten Cookies, chip and other junk) I will loose weight so I adjusted myself to only good Snacks (almonds, veggies) and I started to loose more again. (9 weeks post-op weight loss so far 40 lbs, 50% of my goal)

They just trying to make you buy theirs!!!! It is not required like with a bypass. All you need is Multi-Vitamin, B12, C,D and Calcium for the first few months until you are eating most of the foods that will give you what you need. Then only a multivitamin is needed. As a woman you can always use extra D and calcium.

Take it one week at a time! And as far as having relations I think sits a bit too early! Your body needs to rest. Once you go to soft foods you will feel like a whole new person! Good luck...

Ouch.... Well it's definitely a UTI. I know I haven't been drinking as many fluids and being on the Anti-biotics didn't help. There is even a small trace of blood I the urine that I am able to pass. The DR proscribed some meds so unsure I will work I a few days but just wanted to let you guy know drink your Water....
Other that, my pouch is doing just fine and I'm feeling pretty good.
Haves wonderful rest of the day!
