KJ's losing it

I had RNY on 1/7/18 and I have been SUPER nauseated for the past 3 weeks. I am having an endoscopy done this week because it looks like there may be some narrowing in my pouch. I have lost 40 pounds since surgery and I do not have problems with my back like I did before surgery sooooo as horrible as this nausea has been I’d say, for me, the PRO’s our weigh this CON

Yeah I haven’t pooped. Starting milk of magnesium today. Yesterday I was able to do two shakes. What I learned is that you have to take tiny sips and walk and kind of drink it throughout the day. Don’t forget Water I serve 12oz cup of water and make that my goal for the day

Hope you feel better soon!! I don’t have any advice, just my personal experience. I was terribly nauseous and could barely eat for the first 4-5 weeks. It eventually just went away. Some people don’t get nauseous at all. It’s just a completely different experience for everyone. Hang in there!!

I’m sorry, I don’t understand what you mean. Are you looking for my weight loss stats?

It's gonna be ok. Sometimes these things happen but your stronger than you think just keep trying ok you will get thru this just one step one minute one day at a time

Well I survived and now starting day 1 of my new life. Hope you all are feeling good and positive. Thank also for tips for the post-op!

I had lovenoxin the hospital and then I had to give myself a shot at home for 3 days after surgery. It’s not bad. I was taught in the hospital how to give it and the needle is SUPER tiny. Doesn’t hurt at all

Had my surgery on Jan 8th went back to work on Jan 15th (I’m a 9-1-1 operator so I sit in a chair mostly) I went to my 2 week post op appointment today and I am down 18 pounds since surgery!

I wouldn't worry. My dietician said to eat what I can but when I'm full, stop. And to try regulate my eating so I'm eating same time everyday. That way my body gets used to it

Hi there. I bought Unjury unflavored protein and plan to put it in my applesauce, pudding, cream of wheat, etc. It is whey protein isolate and I believe 21 grams per serving. I also bought Unjury cream of chicken protein Soup. At this point I think I don't care what things taste like as long as I get my protein in.

Have you tried protein Water? I found Premier Protein water at Sams. It has 20 grams of protein in it!

Anyone able to get all their Protein in? I am barely able to eat more than a few spoonfuls of my puréed protein at every meal.

Sitting in hospital in my sexy backless gown. Been here since 10:30am, it's now 3:05pm. Have about another hour to wait 🙄 Anyone else in today? Ps here's the last pic of me in this body. Here's to the future! [emoji4][emoji4][emoji4]

It is 9 days since my RNY procedure. (A bit unusual because I had open surgery and also had a gastric band removed.)
After the surgery? Well, it iwa a brutal surgery because they used a rib spreader to give maximum easy access, and an incision from rib center down to tummy button. The wound felt ok, but my chest felt like I had been kicked in the chest by a horse. (My family were bemused as I inadvertently txted them all that it felt like I had been licked in the chest by a horse, and they couldn’t understand if that was good or bad!) The joy of open surgery - no gas pain!
Slept rest of day 1 and much of day 2. Self pump morphine allowed a dose every 5 mins, but needed way less. Walked corridor 4 times on day 2.
Day 3 30ml (medicine cup) or Water an hour. Diarrhoea begins - daily once or twice. Don’t trust a fart!. Last morphine dose 10am. Short walk every 2 hours.
Day 4 60ml hourly in the morning, 90ml afternoon. Lear broth for dinner with a tablespoon of jelly for after. Slightly longer walk.
Day 5 Tablespoon of purée fish for lunch, over 30mins - and when it goes down, off home (to a big city hotel). Hooray. Nice, peaceful home, where no one wakes me up every three hours to take my blood pressure!
sleeping a bit uncomfortable, need a pillow ‘under’ my tummy to sleep on my side.
Now I am on day 9. Diarrhoea stopped day 7 and quite normal now. I am going for gentle walks maybe 300 yards/metres but they do quickly tire me out. Can sleep on my side with near comfort now.
Eating: 3 teaspoons yoghurt for Breakfast, slow - 15-20 mins. 3 teaspoons cottage cheese with pesto/mild chilli/flavour for lunch, also over 15-20 mins. Protein Soup from BariatricPal pal for dinner - 8oz over 1/2-3/4 hour. In between, water (20% Apple juice cos I hate water) constantly, and 1/4 chai latte in a cafe today made me feel like a million dollars!
About 250 -300 calories, 30-40g protein and I am up to 6 cups Fluid today. Not enough hours to get in All the food and the liquid!
Eating speed is hard to judge - I was told to expect a lump in my chest if I ate too much or too fast, but don’t get that. So just trying to be sensible - if I AM too fast I get mild sharp tummy pain about an hour later.
No regrets so far - really manageable surgery. Not half as rough as a hysterectomy!!
No weighing yet - till I go home on Boxing Day...

January 8th surgery date. Anyone as nervous as I am? Also has anyone tried a Multivitamin that they like? I tried BariMelts and I do not like them.

My date is Jan. 8th 😀
