24 lbs lost prior to surgery
Topic: RE: normal??
I was able to eat pureed chicken and fish a couple of weeks after suryger, but now, I throw up after dinner. Soups, lamb,potatoes and I can eat a little salad. Don't have a problem. Oh,of course a couple of chocolate things from easter, I was hoping to have dumping. Not happening here. I still write down everything I eat. Still have an open incision on my left side, been infected a couple of times, so exercising right now is a no no. My sweet husband did go out and bought me a horse! I will be getting her this weekend, should get some good exercise taking care of her. I am down 52lbs. since surgery and 114lbs. total. Due feel like a totally new person. 65lbs. more to go!!

I to can relate, my surgery was Feb. 23 so Monday was two months out. I can't eat much meat, I get the foamies, haven't lost much in the past two weeks. I am down 30 lbs. I get constipated to. I am told this will all get better. Today for the first time I ate pot roast about two oz. with one tiny potato and carrot. It was wonderful. I had a shake for breakfest and then the post roast because the soup I made for lunch didn't go down well. For snack Ihad a little watermellon. Tonight for snack I will have 3 saltines with cheese. As far as constipation is concered I now take 3 colace at night and in my shake in the morning I put two heaping teaspoons of benefiber and I go every two days. It hurts but not as bad as it was. Try to eat some fruit. I go to my doc tomorrow so I will see what he has to say. Good LUck and don't worry it will get better.

It is great!! I'm only doing the pouch test because it's supposed to kick start your weight loss (I've been stalling alot) and to bring you back on track (I've noticed that I've started grazing and I never want to go back to my old eating habits)!
That's too bad about your doctor.... follow up is so important!!

I am having a lot of nausea again especially when I sip my water! Just a sip of water, and my stomach starts reeling. YUCK. HOT liquid helps for sure, but it has been over 100 degrees here this week, and HOT drinks are NOT what I want right now. I have a doc appt in two weeks, so I will discuss if it continues. I just keep sipping and trying to get the water down, though. I also have been a slow loser. Slow but stalls are only a few days at a time.
