  1. I understand. I love that I’ve lost over 100lbs. I still know that this is one of the best decisions I’ve made for myself. Just take it one day at a time. You’ll feel better
  2. 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.
  3. I love fruits and I can pretty much eat most of them now
  4. Im 3months out and I still belch-burp with everything I put in my mouth. I have gas all the time. I know that after I take 2-3 bites, to stop because if I try to take another bite, I will be in trouble.
  5. It was hard for me as well, so hard that I had became dehydrated. I was getting dizzy from walking stairs or just getting up from a chair. My NUT pushed protein and fluids, but protein first. Im better now but still healing. My pouch can only hold two bites of food. Just take it one day at a time. It does get better and easier.
  6. 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
  7. Every time I eat something, i get really gassy. I eat slow, no drinking 30/30. It's really bad right not. This time I ate a piece of baked chicken. I'm ready to make myself bring it back up. Does anyone else have this problem.
  8. Im 2 months out from bypass. Im starting to have way more gas pains in my pouch after I eat. Anybody have that
  9. 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.
  10. I just thought it would be more. Now that I think about it, all the problems Ive had thus far, it good. Ive had problems with my pouch not keeping down anything, not even water. It keep it down a litter better now but I always get this nasty taste in my mouth when I drink water. Good luck Weslee86
  11. I want to know the same thing. Im 2months out, and my weightloss has slowed down big time. I started at 260 and now I fluctuate between 208 and 206. I had bypass on 7-26-16.

  15. 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. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

  20. Please tell me what is everybody eating as far as Protein, not including Protein shakes? I'm 6-7 weeks post op and I'm having problems getting it in. Everything is really too sweet for and it stinks. I'm nauseous. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

  22. I'm so frustrated right now. My pouch doesn't like anything Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  23. It's hard for me right now because I keep feeling sick and tired. sugar free Popsicles are way too sweet now. Upsets me big time. My pouch is not liking anything. After 2 bites, im stuffed. A third bite and I will be hugging my toilet again. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  24. I had my surgery July 26, 2016. I'm 6-7 weeks out. I've been at 210 for the last few days. I started at 260. I still can't get in all my Protein and Water, no matter how hard I try. I'm nauseous mostly in the evening especially when I'm at work. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  25. 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.
