Undigested fats cause loose and frequent bowel movements. These are often hard to control. You may have cramping, foul-smelling diarrhea, and lots of gas. Are you eating too much fat?

At chinese restaurants I can get a bowl of egg drop soup. At IHOP or diners I can get an egg or two. At mexican places I can get a taco and just eat the inside stuff, ignoring the tortilla shell. I like smoothies but be careful with them because Tropical Smoothie's are very high carb but Smoothie King has Fit and Trim options that are about 200 calories and have protein. I can also eat some meat off of my husband's plate.

What a great idea! Hey everyone. I am 41 year old married woman from the USA. I had RNY on 09Sep2019. Right now I am sitting here with a belly ache because I took my vitamin B complex.

So do any of you wear this type of garment under your clothing to look smoother? If so, what do you use? How well does it work?

Doesnt look too bad. Air is great to have on it. Can you wash it with a gentle soap, pat it dry and sit with out a shirt for a while? It may help very much. Let your HCP know when you speak to him/her

Once we can get past that head hunger... then we realize we are not really hungry at all.

I was in the hospital one night. If you are up and walking and doing well they released you. Unfortunately I had an issue so I went back to the hospital for 2 nights in the same week.

I will check out the pureed recipes. Thank you. I am going to make myself some bland egg salad. I even bought a food processor for the occasion.
-
Monday I start my pureed stage of my post of diet. What was the first pureed meal you ate?
-
Thanks everyone! I got through it! I just licked the pizza and smeared it all over my body. Just kidding. I just waited it out and it went away. But it sucks when it happens!!!!

Totally agree!
