I am 27 days post surgery and i am doing wonderful as to losing weight...

But i am still having issues like Gas pains and feeling full after only one bite and eating only once or twice a day. I asked my doctor about protein supplements he said i dont need them nor i need vitamin :) I did buy my own vitamin pills but the pill is huge and cant be crushed since its gel so there is no way i will take them...

I hope i dont hit any stalls any time soon :( i still have a long way to go but am celebrating my loss so far^_^

  • I would clarify with your nut about the no protein supplements and no vitamin directive...that is opposite of EVERYTHING I've read here and, more importantly, what my surgeon and nutritionists advised

  • Take each day as a success and don't consider your self a long way off. You are so much closer than you were to goal. Congratulations!

  • That's wonderful to hear!!! Congratultions!!!!

You need protein so that you are not digesting your own muscle and with our limited intake, we have to have vitamin supplements. Try the gummy multi-vitamins...they are easy to eat and taste great. I've been on vitamins and protein shakes since surgery and have lost no hair and am feeling full of energy.

You're doing great, by the way! Keep up the good work and best of everything to you! Congratulations!
