  1. Salads are no problem for me.
  2. So weird. For me, it is skinny people who seem to understand why I got the surgery. It’s people who are overweight but not as big as me who say silly things like “cheating” and “u could have tried this” or “this is what I am doing” blah blah blah
  3. I tell everyone I had surgery bc I’m so proud of myself! Surgery is not easy and being obese is extremely hard. It’s my business and I don’t care what anyone thinks about it.
  4. Congratulations on your success. Thank you for sharing your progress ?
  5. Hi. It could be that you aren’t getting enough protein.
  6. Thank you for the advice. I will try making my own shakes. It seems like I get nauseated after forcing down the terrible protein shakes. I’m still in the liquid stage and I must get in at least 80 grams per day.
  7. Does walking help with the nausea? Im 14 days post op DS and struggling with the protein shakes. Did you have a lot of nausea?
  8. Yesterday I had my first postop check-up with my doctor…so I am post op day 12 duodenal switch. I had never had nausea EVER since surgery, so my doctor said I could have scrambled egg. I was so excited. My husband made me a scrambled egg that night. I had nausea and threw up after never having nausea this entire time. So now, I am going to stay on liquid diet (phase 2) longer…?
  9. I’m sorry u are having such horrible symptoms. Are you able to have bowel movements? Were you regular before the symptoms started?
  10. Thank you for explaining this so well. I’m going through a lot of pain as well. I had lap DS surgery yesterday.
