Yep definitely normal. I was mad as heck too. I swear I called my NUT 20x's during the first month! LOL

OMG this is so cute! I love pixie cuts! You really have to have a face to pull that off im totally envious! It looks amazing!

I still keep mine private but the people who are around me wouldn't stop asking and im honestly not too embarrassed or ashamed of my decisions. I guess its a "vibe" or "aura" thing with some people. If I read them and I feel they have a negative type aura I won't tell them, etc.

Yes this was me also. I had some major issues with chicken at first. I think its a little early. I didnt really start in on full meats until about 3-4 months. I still cant handle eggs but I think its just because my pouch doesnt like them anymore.

Wow thats crazy hopefully things are good now?

May I ask why you had to have a revision at 8 months? That seems really soon.

Its basically where you do the same motions as you did right after sugergy with phase 1-4/5 depending on your surgeons "aftercare" guidelines. I would contact your office and ask if they have one. Mine did, funny enough because I thought it was just some rumor from the rumor mill with WLS patients, not so

Protein waters are by far my favorite. I couldnt stomach anymore shakes after a while. My go to choice: Isopure Zero Carb Grape, Isopure Infusions, Bariatric Pal Fruit Drinks in Variety Pack, and Bariatric Pal Peach Tea

I had my surgery on 7/30 and I still cant stomach eggs. Makes me ultra nauseated, especially hardboiled.

I had surgery 3 days after you, and I am experiencing the horomonal return too and definite hunger. I did ask my surgeons office for the "reset" so that should help too if you are wanting to test your pouch etc. I didn't really eat anything out of the norm myself during the holidays, probably ate a little more than I should have though LOL!

I have to chime in too! Im def the crazy cat lady also, four fur babies at home! Will post some pictures soon!

I use a sugar substitute that uses Stevia & Monk Fruit. Handled that just fine

Oh my gosh! Im so glad someone posted this because I wanted to talk about it. Honestly I don't like much lately. Everything is entirely too sweet or too salty. Im craving spicy all the time so I jazz up my veggies and protein sources with Cajun spices. Most of the things I crave I get it, try it, hate it. Ive also started doing something I didn't use to. I smell everything before I taste it. Like hum...what IS THIS THING....Nope! Not going to like it. Not only has my taste buds gone wackadoo, my sense of smell has gone haywire and I can smell everything a mile away. Not that I couldn't before but now its ultra sensitive. Last week an employee downstairs was cooking in our kitchen we have, and what ever it was made me nauseated to the point that I threw up an hour later just from the stench. Not to mention she was literally boiling everything in vegetable oil. UH! I laughed with a friend because I used to eat everything now im ridiculously picky, to the point of annoyance. Protein bars? Picky! Shakes? Hate them now so I moved to mixable "watery" type protein sources like Isopure. Only flavor I like is Grape. Eggs? Yuck! Soups? Picky as heck! Pretty much only vegetable minestrone no noodles. BC noodles taste like rubber to me. Deli Meat? Too much for me threw that up. System cant handle it. Chicken? Barely able to get it down. Tried the infamous "Real Good Foods" & "Halo Top Ice Cream" both didn't agree with me at all. So what am I living on? Chicken salad (tiny bit), tuna salad, ham salad (any kind of salad mayo type), Isopure Zero Carb, Quest Bars (ultra picky with these too), Quest Protein Chips, Amy's Chili & Minestrone Veggie soup, green beans, Salmon (any types of fatty fish), Caulipower Pizza, still looking for the perfect organic green juice with low fruit sugars even cold pressed like Buda Juice. Need to check the macros on it. Just as an FYI - My surgery was 7/30 so im not super recent but it hasnt been very long either.

TBH I can't stand how Premier tastes at the moment. Its so sweet to me. Especially the Caramel, Peaches & Cream, etc. The chocolate is the only one I can get down but with that said im doing mostly clear protein liquid supplements now.

I kind of noticed this myself after watching a few of his videos and then realizing that he was pushing new marketing materials and programs lately.
