Vee..

When u say spasms what does it feel like? I have a pain on my right side that hurts bad more so when I move than anything. I was hospitalized for 3 days they found nothing but I'm still concerned with the pain. And the nausea is at night and majority of the morning. It's a BIG transition. I'm barely able to get down my Protein Shake and I'm afraid of a deficiency. Anyone please help. Tia

Personally I would just go back to eating right rather than liquids. Protein first, low carbs, no drinking after meals, tracking yourself and exercise. You won't have stretched your stomach, you are at the point where you can eat more anyway so it may feel like that but it won't be the case. You know what to do, so start now. Good luck!!

Go back to basic liquid diet . Cut all the crap out go walking or biking gym 💪 The only one can stop this is urself be strong 💪

You said it!!! Hahahaha I'm like these people having to be lying!

Canned chicken with some franks hot sauce, fat free ranch, and a little bit of cheese. Bake it at 350 for about 20 minutes. And fat free refried beans... those two things were my staples for the soft food part.

I waited 2 years, 11 months and 9 days. And haven't stopped since ?

I'm post op day 5 and I am so sure it's not gonna be for a minute lol poor hubs! lol I think most major surgeries they suggest 6 weeks and most folks wait half that so " go with your gut girl" I'm more worried about the new sounds and the fear of so much clapping it will sound like a live audience lol ..

I'm 7 weeks post op and I can't do lettuce at all. Doctor approved it, but my tummy does not like it at all. It rumbles and makes noise every time. I can do baby spinach finely chopped, but only a few leaves. I have low Iron so I've been eating spinach and recently started juicing my kale because I can't quite get it down uncooked. I miss salads and hopefully soon will be able to eat them again.

I hope my stomach is the same:) miss salads!

I was told to stay away from Iceberg Lettuce. The others are ok in moderation. Just be prepared that some of your past foods might not agree with you anymore. For me it's Pasta & Rice. I'm a year and a half out. But I don't regret anything & had the most wonderful Dr!

My program had me wait until 6 months because the lettuce and salads can be hard to digest. I'm 10 months out now and I eat 2 salads a day!

Amen to the refried beans! I lived on them. Also tuna, canned chicken, grits with laughing cow cheese, and a Protein pudding I found (can't remember brand.) I drank two Premier Proteins a day so I didn't have to worry about getting protein in. So sometimes I had sugar free pudding for lunch.

Baby food is disgusting. Better to take a day and make your own and put it in the freezer. If you like the idea of the little jars, you could buy it and dump the contents. Ice cube trays give a tidy way of portioning out food (freeze in the tray, then bag the cubes).

I can't wait to have a nice salad..I'm only 2 weeks out.

YOU LOOK GREAT!!!!

Hi! Had my by pass 1/30/17. How is everyone doing so far? I've hit a stall already. Ugh! ☹️

Can you share ur recipe #fitnotfat

The broth makes me want to throw up as well. I'm 17 days post and I don't even eat bc of the smell. And I feel as if I'm going to regurgitate.

Thanks for sharing. Sleeve Op on August 2016. I kind of slacked a bit. Works been busy forgetting to hydrate/vitamins, missing meals. Began experiencing extreme skin dryness and peeling. Also I'm looking pale in an ill type of way. Glad I read this. Stepping my h2o,  Vitamin, and  Protein UP!

I would like to go ahead and let you know before you read the information below at this moment I am still feeling very sick but I wanted to share this information to see if anyone has experienced this or has any advice to help me!!! I really hope The information I provided makes sense about what I'm trying to say please excuse my writing and grammar. I just need to put this information out as quickly as I can to see if anyone knows anything about what is happening to me.... :-,(
I'm eight months post op!! Everything has been going pretty well until recently, I forget to take my Protein daily and Vitamins daily... I noticed that I can eat more now.... if I wanted to, than I could mths ago. And when I'm swallowing foods and liquids they go down a lot easier now, less restriction but I still have restrictions especially if I eat meat. During my current eight months I have not felt as hungry... with everything going on in my busy personal life and busy work life. I'm not taking my daily vitamins like I did in the beginning of my surgery and I have not had my Protein shakes like I usually would the in the beginning of my surgery. My liquid intake is very low now...I forget to eat and drink now...I don't know how or why but for some reason in my eight months post op gastric bypass, I feel like, I'm use to my new stomach and it doesn't feel so different anymore... so I haven't stayed aware or too concerned with my protein and vitamins and liquids I'm getting in during a day. Example: it's 3 PM and I haven't had Breakfast or lunch and maybe have had a little bit of Water and coffee. This example is what has been going on during my 8 months currently.
This was a big big big mistake!!!!!! The worst thing I could of possibly done to myself... I have had small signs from my body most recently, feeling weak my face looking like a dried-up raisin, my lips being super dry and super dry mouth, especially my tongue and my urine being super strong. Today, all of this caught up to me and I'm currently trying to recover from being so sick hours ago... I have never Felt like this before my body felt like it was shutting down, my vision was blurred I felt fatigue..my heart was racing.. I was dry heaving over and over. And the worst part about it was I couldn't just drink a lot of liquids at one time to help me with my dehydration or eat something to make my stomach feel better, I have to drink slowly and eat slowly because I had gastric bypass. This was a major problem, because I was dry heaving my body was rejecting sips of liquid. I'm malnourished from not having vitamins and I'm dehydrated, I'm pretty sure my body reacted this way because it was not getting what in what I needed-in order to produce energy and function...this is the result of my poor decisions this month..and it all caught up to me today! Forgetting to eat, drink liquids and making sure I have had my protein and vitamins. I was definitely reminded by my body's reaction today. . Saying to myself during my current 8mth post op gastric bypass..."I've done so good since my surgery and everything is good now I have lost the weight so I'm not going to be that concerned with my vitamins as much and nevermind needing protein...Im in my 8mths and I think I'm all good now" ---- I was very wrong thinking this, and suffered from it today and I'm still not well.
Hopefully, I will feel a lot better tomorrow.....to at least go to the store and buy my Protein Shakes and get my life back in order with drinking my liquid taking my vitamins. And remembering I had gastric bypass and I need to take extra care of myself and be aware of my daily intakes.
Thank you for taking the time to read my current confusion of writing skills LOL I just needed to put this out there as quick as possible and do not have the energy to proofread it to make sure this makes sense thank you so much please respond , if you have had this experience
