  1. My surgeon said I would develop vertigo and that it was normal. I just wish it would go away.
  2. Thank you! My surgeon said I can eat what I want and in the same breath asked me to write a review on google…lol I have mandarin oranges to try and combat the OJ craving. I am going to try and eat a packet of grits today and see how that goes. I have popsicles that I am getting tired of so I need a change. Taco Bell has been a huge craving of mine. I read on here some folks have been able to eat 1 taco without any issues. I was told not to count calories by my surgeon because it causes a bad relationship with food to develop. I know already my caloric intake is low.
  3. Thank you so much! I followed the different stages and did liquids, soft foods and now I am set to be able to eat anything. My fear is what’s holding me back. I don’t eat chicken because of it being too harsh, but I like fish and seafood and vegan options.
  4. I plan on contacting the surgeon on Tuesday since he’s out on Mondays. I hope I’m not developing an eating disorder.
  5. I crave orange juice really bad just about every other day. I was thinking I could have Uncle Matt’s organic orange juice or Valencia but looking at the nutritional label is confusing. I feel like if it has sugar listed and no added sugar I should be fine. I can’t tell as to whether it’s listed for the whole container or just a glass. I can’t eat chicken. My body rejects it because it’s too dry so I stick with seafood if I eat anything. I woke up today with a craving for grits and syrup which is weird. I’m all over the place and have yet to eat…
  6. Yeah, I’ve already had a blackout once last month. I fell out as soon as I got home. I have vomited a few times last week and the week before, but it was because I had spicy food and then I ate something that didn’t agree with me. I don’t get why I can only eat a pea to a nickel size amount at this stage. It’s annoying because I can never finish anything and then my food goes to waste because my taste buds and cravings change rapidly so I don’t feel like eating the leftovers later.
  7. I wasn’t given protein goals and my surgeon literally said I am free to eat what I want, but I don’t want to gain weight. I did the shakes and my surgeon said to stop them. He wants me getting protein from food.
  8. Hi, I’m 2 1/2 months post op rny gastric bypass. I want to eat but fear of gaining weight and possible vomiting are holding me back. So I don’t eat. The most I eat is once a day if that and if I eat it’s a pea to a nickel size amount. I read all this stuff online and it makes me feel like I can’t have anything. I’m frustrated at this point. I’m down 75lbs. I lost 35lbs before surgery to prep my body. I have been having cravings but no hunger pains. I fainted once and this new vertigo issue kills me every morning. I just don’t know what to do at this point.
