August Post Ops

Hi! I am Ash. I had my RNY gastric bypass on August 28th, 2013. Are there any other August post ops that would like to start a group?

How soon were you all able to start wearing a bra again? I tried the past couple days, at 4 days post op, and I thinj it has been causing me some unnecessary pain.

August 7th and 35 lbs gone.

Hi! I have been having a really uncomfortable pain in my right side (no incisions). The pain goes vertically and feels like a pulled muscle, but after having a bmovement I feel a little better. Hard to believe it is constipation.

Hey all!

I'm 4 weeks out now and made a pizza today and it was delicious. Whole wheat tortilla, ricotta cheese, pizza sauce, mushrooms, pepperoni and shredded cheese. Omg. I was in heaven.

Thanks i was looking for a way to help with constipation

Hi. My surgery was Aug 19. It went well. My only problem so far is getting enough Protein. After drinking it for 3 wks I've started gagging on it & can't force it down. The only way I can do it is freeze it like a fudgecicle. I've been pretty good about taking Multivitamins, liquid Calcium and getting enough Clear liquids.

Pre liquid diet weight 387lbs

Surgery weight 375lbs

Current weight 355lbs

I have a follow-up meeting with my doc & nutritionist on Wed where I hope to get permission to drive & start soft foods.

I did nibble on some cheese last night & it went well in my pouch. I can't wait for cottage cheese lol

Have you tried the clear Isopure drink? The Apple Melon and Alpine Punch are good. Each bottle is 40g of protein. I drink half a bottle earlier in the day then the other half in the evening. They also sell the powder to mix with Water. At GNC they are about $5 a bottle.

I couldn't stomach the Isopure drinks. I bought one of each & couldn't keep down one. I'm also having a hard time drinking/eating crushed pill mixtures. My stomach hurts so bad on the upper left side I'm terrified of throwing up.
