    Teeth

    I’ve noticed now that I’m eating solids like meats and stuff my teeth and jaw hurt. Like a pressure in the back teeth. And I’m sitting here wondering why my teeth hurt and realized maybe it’s because before I’d inhale my food without really chewing and now I actually chew my food really well. I’m hoping it’s just muscles forming or something 😂 now that I can eat meat I have been eating 4oz of round steak for all three meals for the past two weeks to meet my protein needs. Nothing else sits well 🙄 and I can’t do anymore protein shakes. Any tips on getting the pain to chill out so I can eat tomorrow? Today there was so much pressure when I tried to eat so I just didn’t 😂 hopefully this won’t last to long.

    Birth control

    I’ll try the latex free ones. I haven’t considered any implants or anything I hear a lot of bad things about them. I haven’t even heard of a contraceptive film I’ll definitely try it thank you! She wouldn’t explain why I couldn’t take birth control which really pissed me off. Looking into a new primary dr 🙄
  4. Bigger ones are me @330lbs the second ones are me somewhere between 219.4-222.4lbs my weight varies quite a bit. I lost about 50lbs by myself while in the rny program and lost about 62-65lbs since surgery.

    Diarrhea and work

    Before surgery my diabetes pills (metformin) always made my tummy upset and I’d have to run to the restroom several times a day. I would take phone calls for a business and sometimes I’d get the urge in the middle of a call and have to disconnect and bolt to the restroom. At first I would refuse to go to the bathroom on the same floor that I worked on and would go to the first or second floor but it got to the point where I knew I wouldn’t make it so I’d just go on the floor I worked on. I would flush the toilet as I was going to make myself feel less embarrassed about it lol. After surgery I don’t have that issue I’ll get dumping syndrome without the “dumping” but I also take the BariatricPal prenatal Vitamins with probiotics(a month after buying I found out there was a normal one with Probiotics but decided to stick with prenatals for the folic acid and b12). My mother(had rny also) still has to bolt to the restroom frequently. Hopefully it gets better or goes away soon!

    High heart rate

    So today I went shopping and walked around the whole store without an issue the highest my heart rate was 128 but I hadn’t eaten anything got home ate six thin pretzels with turkey and American cheese. Here it’s super hot so I decided to eat a sugar free popsicle after awhile. And all of a sudden I got super light headed and dizzy. My heart rate went to 144bpm so I went and turned the fan on because I got really warm all of a sudden (it was already 70 degrees inside my house which is perfect for me) just standing and walking five feet to the fan my heart rate went to 160bpm. But my blood pressure went to 153/90 but then dropped to 80/45 when I laid in front of the fan and relaxed which is low for my mine ranges from 110/60-120/80. It’s been almost three hours and my heart rates finally under 100bpm. When I get up it goes back to 120s tho. So I was thinking maybe I ate the popsicle to close to eating and had the symptoms of dumping syndrome(which I have before just never had to use the bathroom just get the other symptoms) but I’m not sure because when my dr described the symptoms of a leak to me it had similar symptoms. And didn’t know if anyone else had anything like this happen.. or had an opinion on either it’s just eating the popsicle or if it sounds like a leak..
  13. Ended up being a reaction to the anesthesia it made to to where my body wouldn’t release any water.
  14. Last week I weighed in at 227lbs. Yesterday at the hospital they said I was 224.9lbs. I went home after my endoscopy yesterday and weighed myself it said 233lbs. I weight myself today and my scale says 236.8lbs. I’m just short of four months post gastric bypass has anyone else had this issue? I don’t really eat food to where it’ll make me gain weight. Throughout today I ate one whole pickle one egg and four oz of chicken. I don’t understand why I’m gaining weight.
  15. I went to the hospital today to get my endoscopy since I’m having trouble eating most solid meats. They weighed me once and it was 102 kg(point something idk exact number) but they told me it was 224.9lbs. Well the past few days when I weigh myself at home it shows that I’ve gained weight. For example a week ago I was 227 and yesterday it said I was 232. Well I got home after my procedure and weighed myself and it said 233lbs. Which is almost a ten lbs difference. My question is which is more accurate? Or which do you personally think is more accurate. Usually I go by mine because it says I’m a couple lbs less than the office but this time it’s the complete opposite which confuses me. I want to say the lower weight but that’s just because it makes me feel better😂
  16. It doesn’t look like it. It’s only maybe five years old but in great condition. Maybe my hubby dropped it. I’ll probably just go get a new one to see.
  17. I didn’t even think about them pumping me with fluids. I guess in my head it was just an endoscopy so I didn’t think they did. But I feel stupid now 😂 thank you I really appreciate it!! Makes me feel better.

    Home scale vs dr scale

    Okay thank you 😊
  20. I slowly started doing them as I started the program. By time I got my surgery date I was already eating sugar free stuff and not eating fast foods. I figured the quicker I start it the easier the transition would be.

    Vitamins

    So I found a vitamin that only needs to be taken once a day but it says for gastric sleeve (screen shot below first is the description of this one and then the vitamin info for the tablet and then the capsule after that will be the normal vitamins I currently take) is this something I could take and get what I need? I guess i don’t wanna make a mistake since it says for gastric sleeve. The current one I take just upsets my tummy because of the flavor and this one has a couple different flavors instead of just watermelon and citrus.
