I really thought I made a decent choice In my Proteins yesterday. I am 3.5 weeks out and eating soft foods. Everything was great until now, 3:30am the morning after. We had a ham yesterday and it was so soft and so good! I had about 2.5 ozs at lunch and another 1 oz at dinner. I also had one of those whey Protein Shots 42g Protein shots in a huge glass of Powerade zero. Here I sit with horrible gas running through my intestines, diarrhea and even some reflux even when I am on acid reducers. Not happy... :(

I know my dietician isn't a fan of those Protein Shots because they have a form of Protein that isn't as well absorbed (I think she said something about collagen? ). Maybe too much solid food too soon? I'm on all liquids until my 3 week follow up, then puréed....

Not sure how the ham was cooked... But if it was made with brown sugar, maybe it was too much for your tummy? Mine doesn't handle me eating too much sugar very well & it runs right through me... Just a thought. Hope you feel better!

Just the outside was glazed and I didn't eat it, only the unglazed insides. Just wish I knew if it was the ham or the Protein shot or both....

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
