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

  4. 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!
  5. 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.
  6. 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.

  11. Wow thats crazy hopefully things are good now?
  12. May I ask why you had to have a revision at 8 months? That seems really soon.
  13. 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
  14. I had my surgery on 7/30 and I still cant stomach eggs. Makes me ultra nauseated, especially hardboiled.
  15. I use a sugar substitute that uses Stevia & Monk Fruit. Handled that just fine
  16. 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.
  17. 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.
  18. I love my chewable Gas X, ive been taking those on and off for the past two weeks. Walking does help, also you need to make sure you are having BM's. Im sure your surgeon told you that but you don't want anything backed up in there. It will get better. I suffered during the first week, and moving into my second week the pain is now on my lowest incision and according to my doctor its more than likely lower bowel gas and BM that hasnt been passed yet. Its going to take a little time. Hang in there.
  19. I have a desk day job and im hardly on my feet, I took a total of 3 weeks but I also had RNY. It really depends on the type of job you have I would assume for you since you are on your feet all day and active probably 3-4 but I would also look at your short term disability benefits, etc.
  20. For me almost 2 weeks. I use it every so often now when one of my incisions is giving me grief. I went though almost 2 bottles of Tylenol 3 (Codeine), and I also had muscle relaxants available. Also took some Gas X cause of the incredible amount of gas pain in my left shoulder.
  21. Post op started with many regrets? Ive been kind of feeling that way seeing my weight loss is ultra slow at the moment but im 8 days out. And im following all the rules. What type of regrets did you have?
