Not only are you eating next to nothing, but your body is in major healing mode. Yes, this is normal and may take quite a while before your energy returns to normal. We're all different.

I have always taken mine to the hospital with me & I have never used it their.

I'm surprised they are pushing you to get the sleeve with your history of gerd. It would make me wonder if they're more confident in preforming the sleeve rather than RNY. You might want to get a second opinion.

Ice! You can freeze Water in a Dixie cup & then use the big ice cube to massage your hip.
I have also used a “muscle roller stick” on my hip when it felt like a very, very tight muscle in my hip.
A foam roller can also help.

It could also be the anesthesia leaving your system. I have quite often found myself an emotional wreck 5-14 days after a surgery. I’ve had 12 surgeries in my 54 years!

Way to go! That’s where I wanna be!
How tall are you?

I sometimes have to take a swallow of Water at the end of my meal just to get the taste of the food out of my mouth.
My husband makes me get water when we go out just to make the server feel better🤣

There is an app called Get-2-Goal. It tracks your weight and lets you know see where you show be according to your weight & procedure.

Throw a handful away every time you think about eating some! Take control of getting rid of them🤣

Be stronger then the cheese balls! Can you move them out of your site? That’s what I have to do when I’m tempted by a food that has been brought into the house that is my weakness.

I got these at Sprouts in the medical refrigeration area. They are very small. I take them twice a day.

I had a RNY because of a previous failed surgery (10 years ago) to correct my L shaped esophagus. 1/2 of my stomach was above my diaphragm. food was getting stuck just about every day. My BMI was about 34.
I didn't have to do any of the pre-op things that people with high BMI’s have to do. My doctor wasn’t a WLS surgeon. He was a thoracic surgeon & told me to find all of my info on the internet.
After I decided I wanted to do the surgery it was only 2 months til I had it.
I spoke with a nurse and a nutritionist through my insurance (Cigna) several times before & after my surgery.
I am 13 months out from my surgery. I have lost 65 lbs. I would like to loose 5 more to get me to the top end of a healthy BMI for my height.
The weight has dropped pretty easily & I know it’s gotta be exercise that takes off the last 5. I also know I would not have lost 65 lbs on my own. Now I just got to keep it off & that scares me
Good luck in whatever you decide to do.

Ohmyword. I’m so sorry you were treated so badly! She needs to be reported ASAP. This cannot be tolerated! My heart is aching for the emotional & physical pain you are in. What is wrong with people ?!?!?

I take 400 mg of magnesium citrate 3 times a day & eat 4 prunes. My PCP put me on this after I told him I was taking 2 laxatives, 2 stool softeners, Miralax & 4 prunes a day. I have to set a reminder to take the magnesium citrate in the middle of the day. I still need to use an enema about once a week.

I keep getting a yeast infection or thrush since my RNY a year ago. I take acidophilus twice a day but about every 3 weeks I need to take a Diflucan.
Anyone else have trouble with too much yeast?
I don’t eat bread or carbs, I hardly have any sugar.

I fall on the side of I’m able to tolerate EVERYTHING, like almost feel normal. No nausea, no dumping, no food stuck, no intolerance. I‘m maintaining and five years out. I know how to keep my weight in range. I indulge within reason and live life. But, I know my weakness and must deal with them.
Just because we can eat more and tolerate everything does not mean we have to overeat our calories and macros. Make a choice, Work at this life long or don’t be mindful and gain weight. You said “once that’s over am I back to square one with weight loss struggles??” Define what your struggles are and work on them. We are not all doomed to regain Keep an eye on the scale. Don’t let a small gain take off on you. If you gain weight get back on track.

I just pureed what I made for the family. A roast puréed with the juice was amazing! Cooked carrots were good too!

Yes! I took meclazine for a few months after my RNY. I still take every now & then 11 months out.
