Hello all,

I am new to the form. I just had RNY on March 31,2016. At first I felt like I could run a marathon now I have developed this sick feeling to my stomach. I don't feel like eating and Water sometimes is hard to get down. I'm 3 weeks out can anyone give me some kind of insight on how they felt around this time and what are some things to help along the progress.

I'm from Memphis and I had Dr. Wagner

Hello, I am better. I am almost finish with the antibiotics and I am able to get my food, Protein shakes and Vitamins. I have switch to the Multivitamin patch from this website store because I have taking pills, I hate the taste of them. Although, I am at the "3 week stall" I have lost 40 lbs since I first started the program. He is amazing. Keep me updated.

So glad you are doing better and congrats! I didn't have the bypass but I can tell you with the sleeve after two hours of being out running errands I was completely exhausted. I was glad that I took the month off as it was needed. The third week I had extremely soft scramble egg for Breakfast and savored every bite that I could eat. I wish you the best!

I only took 2 weeks, which I wish I would've took the entire 4 weeks they offered me but I thought I was going to be up and run. With no problems. I was wrong. Great you are doing good. My new pouch and eggs do not get alone... Lol... What are some sample food ideas you eat?

Now since I am 4 months post-op I eat fat free cottage cheese, yogurt, grilled or baked salmon/chicken, soft veggies, drink Premier and nectar Protein drinks, etc. It is a variety but still no carbs or fried foods.

During the earlier stages I would eat refried Beans from Taco Bell and Wendy's chili and slowly incoroporated different soft foods to get an idea of how my stomach would handle it. So far I have lost 40 lbs and 10 lbs from goal. I was also a low BMI as well. I do not keep track of my foods but I do read labels to verify sugar and carb contents.

I am only 3 weeks out and having a hard time with what food to eat.. He has me on soft food so I eat mashed potatoes, cheese rolled in ham (chewed well), sugar free applesauce, sugar free pudding, chili from Wendy's, veggie Soup, pretty much the same thing over and over. I'm ready for something different.. I tried baked chicken breast and of course it came back up.

It does get boring but your stomach will eventually settle and you will be able to expand your food base. Soft scrambled eggs and boiled eggs may not be a bad idea to add to your selctions, yogurt, grits, oatmeal, etc.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
