So I think I'm losing really slowly. I'm 10 weeks out and down 40 pounds. An average of four pounds a week is great, except I lost 28 in the first month. So I'm looking at calories...

My nut says to have 600 a day. Most people on OH stay around

So I'm on vacation at Prince Edward Island and there's lots of local produce, PEI potatoes, PEI strawberries, etc.  Last night I had a lot of strawberries and got really sick. Bloated, nauseous, shaky, stomach cramps, etc. it never occurred to me that

It used to be that I had to run to the bathroom every 20 minutes to pee. I didn't want to drink any liquid if I was going to be in a car, because I'd have to go. So since RNY I can go hours between bathroom stops. My nut said that the first weight we l

About two weeks ago I joined a gym and have been exercising 5 days a week. I've been doing a lot of strength training trying to help out my knees and hips. During this time I have literally lost about a pound which seems strange at only 8 weeks out. I

$*&#@%& I had hoped that it wouldn't get hard this early (six weeks out). I really struggled yesterday. As of Monday, my plan says I can do trial and error with any foods. Even though I knew better, I took that to mean ALL foods. When I was on pureed a

I never had sleeping problems before RNY but now they are rearing their ugly heads. I can fall asleep easily but I wake up early. Yesterday was 3 am and today was 5 am. I looked through older posts and see that this is a common problem post op. Does an

So yesterday I posted that I was feeling physically hungry and I tried some dense protein and no relief. After a while I realized my stomach was burning. I had forgotten Prilosec two days in a row. I took a Zantac and that quickly calmed my stomach dow

For the last few days I have been feeling constantly physically hungry. Like that growly feeling when your stomach is empty. I haven't had much of an appetite but I fed it a Greek yogurt this morning and it did nothing to quell the growling.

I started soft foods last Monday. For the most part it's gone well, but I noticed in the last couple days that when I eat I have pain and pressure right under the middle of my rib cage. Tonight I ate two bites of stewed all day pork and a well cooked d

I'm one month post op tomorrow and officially on soft foods as of two days ago. My question is how much were you eating at one month out? 

My nut says 1/4 cup and sometimes that's too much and sometimes not enough. My nut is great but also reco

I'm going to call my nut tomorrow but thought I would run this by you all.

I'm on Pureed and soft foods. I am sick sick sick of ricotta and cottage cheese and yogurt and protein drinks. So last night at my mom's house I Pureed some roast beef w

So I'm two weeks out and still drinking lots of shakes. I tried the Fit Frappe cappuccino shake and dumped within a few minutes. I had to go re read the nut label. It said 0 sugars, but it also listed 6g of sugar alcohols. I guess I can't do this one.
