That is so surprising about ginger! Definitely something I was planning on having on-hand post-op. Hopefully your tastebuds will come back around to it in a few months.

Sorry to hear about your migranes. I'm the same with fake sugars and non-natural cleaning products. They're the worst!

For nausea, have you tried Psibands? I picked up a pair on clearance at Target and hoping they will be helpful for me. Also, I remember from my cruise that green apples (???) are supposedly great at helping with sea sickness/nausea. Maybe you can find (or make) green applesauce and give that a go.

Hope you are feeling better each day!

@HeatherS. - thanks! I am definitely a list-maker. Helps keep me sane.

@HeatherS. - I absolutely agree!

The book is fairly new (released about a year ago, I think), so your library may not have it, but it'd be worth requesting! If not, my copy was only $10 through Amazon.

Sounds like you are on the right path!

Have you read Proteinaholic by Dr. Garth Davis (who is a bariatric surgeon in Houston)? I'm currently making my way through it and Dr. Davis certainly has some convincing arguments in favor of LPHC.

Thanks for sharing the link! I plan to read through it over the weekend.
