  1. Did you have bypass or sleeve? Diarrhoea would be obvious and they will taper the meds themselves and usually it stops within a day after you decrease/ stop meds
  2. I spotted 4 months post op and notice heavier bleeding for normal days on month 6 but otherwise ok this appears to be normal but consult gynae
  3. 6 months out and losing 3-4 lb / month also starting to feel hungrier
  4. Consult doc for checking nutritional deficiencies
  5. A friend took them and said the GI side effects can be bad also weight loss OSS only till you take them but doc would advise best

  7. Everyone’s different I think but I feel hungry some 5 months out
  8. My puréed stage was mainly slightly thicker cream based soups with solid strained out like broccoli cheddar I managed max 1/2 cup in small sips twice a day tuna for me was solid Phase
  9. My doctor had me monitor sugar and bp and cut both meds
  10. In dmv Kaiser has various phases post op for sleeve - they allow coffee & carbonated drinks 6 weeks post op for example protein is always prioritized but how is left to the patient
  11. Thank you so much. For the detailed repsonse i am indeed fed up of nuggets and shrimps which’s what my diet is predominantly composed of not bec of any indigestion but the restriction of the sleeve and my no interest I. Cooking I don’t like Greek yogurt. would love trying oatmeal but thought that would be too high carb frutis fill me fast at the cost of protein and fluids soups sound divine and recipes would be welcome ideas to diversify proteins beyond baked chicken and nuggets would also be very very appreciated
  12. What did a daily day look like? Mine is mainly chicken nuggets and string cheese both because of restriction and limited recipes despite searching When did you have bread? Even low carb? The only I found is sarah Lee? Low carb tortilla? Did you start eating out? What were your favorite bariatric friendly go to?
  13. With time you do get hungry and it gets the same fullness can vary from heaviness to treating eyes or watery nose and hiccups
  14. I was concerned bc it was trouble free with airfryer shrimps earlier but my impression now is body can react weirdly to things it tolerated well b4 anytime it wishes
  15. Thank you so much. Was freaked about there being something wrong despite the nurses assurances
  16. 3 months post op sleeve and since last two weeks digestion is off & on for the same food Somedays chicken slides smoothly others it sits heavy in the stomach - this off & on has come around in the last two weeks, earlier was smooth Concerned if this is normal - nurse says to just monitor
  17. I complete three months on 5 sept it just feels tender inside like it did after the procedure wo any other symptoms hoping it’s just indigestion. thanks for the egg bite recipe anymore would be very welcome
  18. Sounds good I made some with cheese bell pepper and salt & pepper but found them too eggy if that makes sense cab you share a recipe with quantities please - I suck at cooking the stomach feels a little tender like it did after the procedure so concerned if I may have opened an internal wound or something - it’s around my belly button in the centre of the abdomen
  19. I think you right I feel better after a bowel movement- could have been kiwi or small potato bite I took but totally freaky my diet is mainly chicken nuggets and airfryer shrimps with some berries and profee 3 months post op tried searching for recipes but failed & don’t think can accommodate much anything I should add other than Greek yogurt (hateful) or cottage cheese (already eating some)
  20. Thanks praying it’s nothing as well. I think the bigger portion and something not agreeing could be right airfrying seafood is just dicey
  21. Thanks it’s in the centre above the belly button feels more like indigestion. Nurse asked to keep an eye if no additional symptoms and go to er if it worsens sne thought I may have eaten something that didn’t agree with me. I have nuggets and shrimps both air fried since few weeks but could be
  22. Feel a weird spasm not painful just uncomfortable like indigestion in lower stomach since yesterday 3 months post sleeve No other symptoms but concerned as new symptom Any idea? Could it be indigestion or should I be concerned Surgeon will take ages to respond
  23. Mine also wants 64 oz fluids which eeems impossible going to get iv fluids today - will also see how my BP is bc still on ntihypertensives and low BP could cause nausea too
  24. So the doc wants to try nausea meds i am more concerned at why it’s happening in the first place since it was fine earlier Flavored water just doesn’t go down well - I find most drinks too tart whats the min daily water goal ? Mine insists on 64 oz
  25. It’s intermittent most days i can manage 42 oz comfortably but 64 is a stretch my surgeon left the prog so waiting for sb else - Kaiser sucks with replacements
