  1. Hi everyone. It’s been a minute since I’ve posted. I had my procedure in 2016. I’ve lost a good amount of weight but now I’m starting to gain weight. I know I’ve been eating the wrong foods. My sweet tooth/junk food cravings are starting to take over. It’s like I try to stop the cravings but I keep eating. I also noticed that I have a lot of gas everyday all day long. Somebody talk to me before I lose this battle.


  2. I am 3 months out and I had the same problem. Then I couldn't eat eggs, drink Water or drink Protein Drinks. The only thing my pouch could hold was broth. Protein drinks would not stay down. That lasted for about a week or so. Im doing so much better. I still have days when my pouch is iffy. Its a one day at a time thing with me. About time I take 2 bites or sips of something, I stop before I get full. If I dont stop, me and my toilet will be having a conversation, lol. Sugar and

    splenda and equal upsets my stomach. I wish you the best of luck. It will get easier


  3. I did that one time and paid for it dearly. My toilet and I became the best of friends, lol. My pouch couldnt hold anything down after that fantastic plan of mine. It gets better. Im 2 months out from bypass, and still have gas issues after eating. Really bad gas pains in my pouch. It eases up but not til like two hours later.


  4. I had bypass on July 26, 2016. I'm 6-7 weeks out. I'm diabetic. I was on Metformin and insulin of 4-6 injections a day. Since surgery, dr has taken me off insulin. Now my sugars are still running close 150- 175. One of the main reasons I had my survey was to get off these MEDS. Now I'm afraid that I might have to go back on them cause it's not controlled. Sometimes I can't eat due to nausea really bad. When you don't eat, blood sugars go up. I've been struggling these past few weeks.

  5. I understand what all of you are going through because I'm going through it now. It gets worse in the evening. My pouch doesn't tolerate any of the Protein drinks, not even the Atkins. All of them are too thick and too sweet. Just thinking about them makes me nauseous. It's so hard to eat when I'm not hungry. Water, it's like my pouch will take it sometime and sometimes not. I've spoken with the nurse and dr. My MEDS have been changed. Acid reflux meds twice a day and nausea meds twice a day. Everything was coming back up at first. Eventhough that's has eased up some, I feel miserable. I don't understand why it mainly happens at night. I get a nasty taste in my mouth and then I can't drink Water.
