Anyone out there need a RNY texting buddy? (male or female, doesn't matter to me) I find myself needing to chat with someone that understands and sadly I can't always get to my computer. I have a hard time posting from my phone, so I thought I'd see

So every now and then my stomach feels like its just not letting anything through to my small intestine. Then other times, its no problem at all. I've read that the new stomach can be a picky little stinker and it's all just normal. Most days there

I have been craving a salad like crazy!!!  I'm just wondering if anyone ever eats a salad or if the fiber is too much or the lettuce doesn't sit well, etc.  I know the portion I can have is super tiny only being 6 weeks out.  I"m just curious as to if

Tomorrow I will be 5 weeks post-op and I can usually have about 1/4 cup of food at each meal, rarely more than that.  Made me curious to know where each of you are at with quantity.  

Can someone tell me how you are able to get those tickers in your signature line?  Thank you!
