HELLO I AM DAY 6 I WOKE UP FEELING GOOD BUT AFTER MY SHOWER AND FIX MY Breakfast I FEEL SO SICK RIGHT NOW I CANT EVEN DRINK MY BREAKFAST, I HAD TO TAKE A NAUSEA PILL. LAST NIGHT WAS RUFF I MUST SAY. I THINK I STRESSED THE MAIN INSISION AND IT BOTHERED ME ALL NIGHT THE ACHE WENT ALL THE WAY TO MY BACK. YES I WAS SCARED BUT I KNEW I WOULD BE OK. I THINK I AM HAVING A REACTION TO TRADER JOES SPICY BLACK BEAN Soup, KEY WORD SPICY LOL.

I WAS ABLE TO GET MY 60 GRAMS OF PROTIEN IN AND I THINK THAT MADE ME SICK AS WELL I WAS FORCING IT BUT I COULDNT FINISH IT NO MATTER HOW HARD I TRIED LOL.

I HOPE EVERYONE WHO HAS HAD THE SURGERY IS DOING WELL. PLEASE SHARE YOUR PROGRESS SO WE CAN LEARN FROM EACH OTHER.

Hi guys I wanted to give an update. First off to those having difficulties I hope things get better for you soon. I have been one of the fortunate ones who have had no complications but I did wanna ask a few questions. Like most I miss my diet Sundrop and SWEET TEA!! I'm trying different artificial sweeteners but they seem to have a strange after taste. Is this just something you get used to? I'm getting tired of water and crystal light. I haven't tried the Mio yet but I'm going to. I've never been a green tea person but I haven't tried it since surgery. Ok surg was 9-12-12 surg weight was 297 and today it's 275. My highest back in Feb was 340! I'm ok with the weight loss as I hear the slower the better chance your skin has to go back lol not sure how true this is. I am able to eat anything I want in moderation and yes I have had a few things that I shouldn't have. I drink no protein in fluid as I get it all in through food. Goodluck to everyone as we continue this journey. I am also on my fitness pal and my username is whitsmom08, I love that I am able to track everything.

MDM HOW ARE YOU SWEETIE. HANG IN THERE WE WILL LOOK BACK ON THIS ONE DAY WHEN WE ARE SKINNY.

Hi how long was your surgery. Your weight is exactly the same as mine. Surgery day 297 today 275. I am 5 weeks post-op

Mine took over 2 hrs. I had an enlarged spleen that we didn't know about. So they had to work around that.

Oh I meant how long ago but funny u say that. Mine took 5 hours because my liver was so large :-(

It will be 5 weeks this Wednesday, are you on mfp?

No but came very close. It was torture on my back. Laying on that hard surface that long with a bad back. It was awful when I woke up.

I use Truvia, which is not too bad. I also really like the lemon tea for Kurig, though it is not extremely sweet, it has a nice flavor.

Thanks Delta Girl ill try that
