  1. I'm two months out and I have my good days and bad. Still very uncomfortable for me to eat but I try. Chicken doesn't go down well at all yet. Neither does deli turkey. Been ok with tuna but sometimes my pouch doesn't like it. It all depends
  2. So Im on my two month as of June 3rd out of surgery. I've been eating more solid food but having trouble keeping stuff down here and there. For about two weeks it was bad bad. I was going great but the last couple times I've tried something a little more solid and thrown up I've found I'm a lot more emotional the last two times than I have been for some reason. I threw up dinner and I just got super depressed tonight and cried , all I want to do is just sleep now. Has this happened to anyone before?

    3 weeks out and weight gain

    My stall went on for a couple weeks and finally started losing again and actually lost a lot in the last two weeks . So all I can say is stalls like everyone says happen but go away

    Endoscopic balloon dilation

    I think I'm currently experiencing one , had a bad throw up session last night and today I can't keep anything down but water. Protein drink doesn't stay down or cottage cheese I'm a month post op and it hurts in my chest

    Any tips on chewing slowly?

    Ugh I'm five weeks out of bypass and idk what it is but this week has been rough on the eating I've thrown up almost every day this week and I feel like I'm taking my time but idk if I'm taking enough time at work and I feel like when I start feeling since I have an anxiety attack and it just makes it worst.

    Looking for possible buddy in Arizona PHX

    Turkey slice went down fine at week 1 it hurt a little bit but I took really small bites. Tried chicken on Easter just had like two bites and that didn't go down well at all. Tuna really wasn't great for me either. Yesterday for some reason I was really feeling uneasy in the tummy and threw up both my lunch and my dinner. Only thing I find that doesn't hurt going down at all really is the cottage cheese which I've been trying to have at least once a day. Getting tired of the protien drinks though.. bleh.

    3 weeks out and weight gain

    Had mine on 4/3 and I'm the same way three weeks out stalled goes from 275 to 274 to 273 and then back up. However I started my period so that might have something to do with it. I feel like I'm getting enough food/ protien, but might not be getting enough water I'm trying though!
  16. I've posted on a couple forums before but haven't fully introduced myself. I'm from Arizona , I'm 32 and have struggled with my weight all my life. Lost some weight with medifast but gained it back and also with Atkins. Decided on the surgery about four months ago and did it Thur the company I work for. One of the best Bariatrics surgeons around. I didnt have to lose any weight per the insurance but the surgeon wanted me to lose a little beforehand. I lost about ten pounds before and last Monday was my surgery. I felt pretty good the first couple days but had little set backs of feeling just gurgley and weird. Also I was told beforehand that I might have had small holes in my diaphragm that would need fixed if they could they would. They couldn't fix it because it would mean an open surgery to get to where they need. I woke up from surgery and when I talked to the doc he said that they actually had to reposition my stomach and lengthen my esophagus because my small intestines weren't exactly long enough. He also told me that there were seven cuts because the one under my left boob they accidentally hit an artery and had to stitch them up and move next to it o it'll be pretty sore there. I'm six days out and can say that son of a bee hurts like hell even still haha. I get to drink until first protien drink today and I'm excited about it. Been trying to walk as much as possible and am trying to work up to drinking four bottles of Water still on three /three and a half.

    April surgeries

    Had some major pains last night but pain meds are helping. Up drinking water and walking every two hours. Pain isn't bad at the moment. All went well with mine yesterday.
  23. So I went to my last pre op appointment on Tuesday. The bypass is still scheduled for early Monday morning yay! So my question is has anyone been told they have a large fat deposit by their heart and that they have a possible hole in their diaphram ? Apparently it's a birth defect because I was born premature. Doc said it was pretty rare . Just wondering if anyone has been told this and how the outcome was ect.
  24. Yeah it's still a go the surgeon said he would look at it while in there and repair or go from there ect
