  8. Ok so i had band to bypass on april 16tg had a lot of pain on the left side right under my breast then last Sunday night I could feel a hard spot right where the pain was so i took meds and already had an appointment the next day with the doctor but then about 2am i went to go to the bathroom and I had a wet spot all over my pants where my incision and the pain was called the dr and they said sounds like an infection for me to cover it and just come in the next day so I did he removed the one staple that was left on that incision and it poured out pus when he took the staple out the incision opened right up so he had me leave it open and I just have to keep changing the dressing everyday and letting it come out I'm on antibiotics and I go back this Thursday the hard knot disappeared immediately after he opened it up but now I'm having another pain on my left side which is lower the weird thing is if I'm laying down or sitting down it doesn't hurt at all then when I stand up and try walking it hurts like hell I've tried taking milk of magnesia and I'm not sure I notice a difference but then just now I thought maybe its something to do my protein shakes I'm not sure has anybody else had this issue before it literally feels like I'm being stabbed in my left side right by my hip and my belly area
  9. No just in general if i make something like this and im allowed how ever many ounces how do i know how much protein is in it
  10. My dr gave me zofran for nausea ..did u get any meds to help
  11. I mean when your mixing it into something like making the buffalo chicken dip ? I make it with 1 large can of chicken 1 pack fat free cream cheese ranch dressing hot sauce and some shredded cheddar cheese ....not even sure its something ill be able to have
  12. Ughhh im 6 days away from hopefully being able to have some food and im having MAJOR cravings for the weirdest things......blueberry yogurt, buffalo chicken dip and guacamole .......my dr is so strict i know ill be able to have the yogurt and can have the chicken but not sure of the cream cheese in the dip and not sure at all about avocados ...and does spice bother your pouch? How do you calculate protein in a recipe ? Ahhhh the questions i have when all i can think of right now is food lol....i feel like im planning my first meal and when time comes im gonna take 1 bite and be full
  13. You look amazing! Congrats!
  14. I also remember reading a thing about a ricotta bake sounded delish! You mixed the ricotta with seasoning just like if you were making a lasagna then pour it in a pan cover with sauce then sprinkle some mozzarella cheese and bake
  15. Congratulations! I remember after the lapband when I was on pureed Foods I ate egg salad tuna fish cottage cheese yogurt etc
