Ok everyone since we are getting close to December I figured I would go ahead and start us up a post op thread

My nutritionist said it was okay to be over on protein. I was at 91 one day. I haven't dumped yet, but do you think you may have dumped from it? I'm one month out. Hope it doesn't happen again.

I ate something yesterday that did not agree with me! I had 2 plain chicken wings' date=' and the came back up almost as quick as they went down. I have only thrown up a few times, but after this time I had some discomfort and pain below and between my breast (is that where my pouch is?). I also felt very nauseous for about 12hrs. Is it normal to have pain or discomfort after vomiting?

Also, I am 4 weeks post op and stalled on my weight loss too. I get 70+ protein a day. I see my nut and Dr thursday, is it possible to get to much protein?

And 1 more question. Is anyone else having trouble sleeping? I have terrible insomnia. I have tried tylenol pm, melitonin, and muscle relaxers, and I still can't sleep. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

I have had a terrible time sleeping. I also seem to get restless legs or for that matter my whole body! I have to get up several times and walk around and stretch.

I just got my fitness pal. Add me lifesaverx3@gmail.com

I have restless body too! Lol it's the weirdest most frustrating feeling.

I am glad you know. You can do the no smoking thing. It will be hard but worth it.

Thank you!!

My nut said not possible to get too much protein on a 400-500 cal diet/day. She said once your up to 800-1000 cals a day then you need to watch protein intake.

Are you working out? I haven't been on a stall since working out. I walk at a minimum of1 hour on the tread mill / 5days a week. Much of the time it is 1hr45min. Yes I am on the extreme side of it, the working out I guess but since I moved from losing .5 pounds per day to 1 a day.

Haven't thought about those calories so haven't been counting. Something to consider though because some of those are 25 - 50 per dose.

Broke the stall!!!!!!!
