I had bypass on March 13… Started out at 232 and now at 215 so 17 pounds lost… Does that seem low to anybody? I have been having issues with constipation so maybe that explains the low weight loss. I would appreciate any words of encouragement or advice.

I was looking for recipes that did not include protein powder

I am almost 4 weeks out...can I eat most of these?

Does anyone have recipes for high protein soups?

I never want to experience that again...it was the worst

I am 3 weeks out and have just started soft foods...so far, yogurt, cottage cheese and refried beans...twice in the last 24 hours, i have dry heaved...the second time was much worse as white foamy stuff was coming up....i still feel pain 4 hours later...how do you prevent the dry heaves? Thank you

Why no water after eating?

I am 3 weeks post-op...when can I have coffee?

Cozumel, Belize an Roatan

Yes, we are thinking of going with Carnival

Yes, i had my surgery on 3/13...my doc said it was from constipation and not enough calories

My husband and I are scheduling a cruise for August. At that point I will be five months post op… Will I be able to find things to eat on a cruise ship? Any suggestions are appreciated

I am only two weeks postop; however I am wondering if I will ever be able to eat oatmeal again?

I am two weeks into my 3 week liquid post op...so sick of protein shakes

How much time did you take off work? I figured two weeks was enough...now I am thinking I need more time

I am almost 2 weeks postop… Have been doing great energy good… Now, the last three days I've been nauseous and very little energy, supposed to go back to work tomorrow… What is going on here?

Thanks, I am 9 days post op now and still only 5 pounds lost

I just tried putting unflavored protein...blech

What other kind of soup besides chicken and vegetable broth?

When i tried to add unflavored Unjury to soup, it clumped up and totally turned me off...

My doctor says no jello, yogurt or pudding.....i can only have protein shakes, crystal light, broth, sugar free popsicles and soups that go through a strainer

7 days post op...2 more weeks of liquids....i feel like I am starving....help!

Me too...i have 2 more weeks of liquid and I already feel like i am ready to chew off my left foot!

7 days post op...no bowel movement yet...I don't feel constipated though...should I be worried?

Yes, I am on liquids for another two weeks...i am no where close to meeting the protein and water levels...too much to drink in one day
