That's great @@amylynns ! Way to go! I really wish I liked fish...I might give it a try again soon, but I've never been a fish person. I used to love meat...chicken, beef, pork...loved meatloaf, meatballs, just grilled chicken w some broccoli...I can't eat any of it right now, even the smallest amount makes me nauseous. I am hoping over time it will get better though. For now tho, I'm just trying some other stuff and hoping it keeps my belly happy til I can get back to the doc!

Thanks Luna!! Talapia I can handle, not salmon yet. Tried it twice, no go. Talapia is alot milder. I have tried chicken beasts too, I can handle about 4-5 pieces and I'm full. Haven't tried beef yet.

It's good to be treating your belly careful for now. I did that for a week and a half and I'm sure it helped.

oh salmon. It was such a painful experience. Tilapia is a great source though!

Been lucky as long as I keep it to 3-6 bites when it is solid meat I can eat it Ground beef... no problem. Buffalo is best. Weight is inching down. Sure like having this blog. It shows me I am neither alone or crazy... :-)

Hey ladies and gents. I've been on the gastric bypass fb page, it's interesting. Anyway I'm down to 213 lbs, slowing inching down to onderland, I joined a gym so Monday will be my first official workout after work. 2 days ago I went shopping for my daughter's birthday. I decided to try on some clothes to see where I'm at. I could fit into the size 16 in misses, the women's size 16 was a bit too loose in the belly area. The misses 16 was a tad too tight for me, I suspect in the next few weeks I'll be in them. Here's a pic of the size 16 misses.

My boyfriend told me I was looking pretty sexy yesterday, little better than calling me skinny butt. He is not big on the complements, so made me feel good.

I got a glimpse of myself in a store window today and said "well I guess I have lost some weight". My husband keeps telling me I have, but I didn't believe him until I saw for myself. 50 pounds in 7 weeks, I'm ready to lose the next 50 just as fast!

Eight weeks out tomorrow. And lately I'm always hungry. Today is my birthday. And I spent it at home because almost everything I ate today was making me sick. Funny enough the tortilla chips didn't bother me at all. But now I'm hungry again.

I hope Bronxmerci is ok too! Praying for her! Happy Birthday @@layknee :)

I have found a new snack that my tummy loves, they are Multigrain hummus garlic tortilla chips, with a little sweet onion salsa...omg so yummy! I had half a cheeseburger tonight for dinner, a few fries with it, all made at home...and I didn't get nauseous from it, but I think I had just a couple bites too many, cuz I was just uncomfortable for a little bit after. I had to pace back and forth up and down the hallway so I didn't make myself "think" I was going to throw up. I tend to dry heave alot when my tummy feels icky :-/ Tomorrow is Monday tho, so I'm hoping to hear back about the liver stuff! On another note, sorry if it's tmi lol, but this last week and a half or so, I've been moving my bowels somewhat normally, without the help of any suppository lol. I still take my Colace once, sometimes twice a day, but that's it. It's a relief!

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
