  1. Oh me too. It was brutal..so I made cream of wheat with a tad of butter & salt & added flavorless protein powder to it !! It was sooooooo satisfying.
  2. When do gas pains subside. My diet consists of soup, cream of wheat or protein shake. I drink water & walk regular. Why do I still have such painful gas still ?
  3. Im 9 days post op. My cravings have NOT gone away. When I drink my shake or eat my yogurt, my restriction does not kick in until after its too late so I have to portion control myself. And then I still experience cravings for real food [emoji22]
  4. I am 9 days post op. Stopped all pain meds day 4 post op. However there is still some light pain especially around the incision area but nothing unbearable. Go by your Surgeon's advice
  5. I am 7 day post op & am experiencing a lot of night-time cough. Is this normal ? Is it reflux? I am taking pepcid as recommended twice a day so what could this be?
  6. Very normal. Walk a lot but that is normal for the first couple weeks. You're allowed protein shakes ,cottage cheese etc on phase 2 you will start getting a little energy back still be one month before you feel energetic
  7. I think that's what I am missing the most. The chewing. Oh well this too shall pass.
  8. I'm on Day 7 post op Gastric bypass & I want a bagel. Not a whole bagel just a bite. I don't want any more protein shakes, no jello, no more cottage cheese, just a bite of a bagel. Is that normal ? Am I abnormal? Wasn't this surgery supposed to take away your hunger? Please share your experiences.
  9. Thank you. That helps. I will try upping my protein intake too !! Sent from my SM-G920P using BariatricPal mobile app
  10. I am 6 days post op & I very weak & feel like sitting around. I try to go for a short walk twice a day but that's it. Is that normal? Any similar experiences out there? Sent from my SM-G920P using BariatricPal mobile app
  11. Is he with Dr Jawad ? Sent from my SM-G920P using BariatricPal mobile app
