Topic: RE: Where is everyone????? ROLE CALL!!!
HI Vivian here. Surgery was RNY on March 20th, 309/265/160 not sure about the inches.
Biggest struggle..well had a stricture at 6 weeks out and well...it was awful. still scared to eat much variety.
I never get enough protein, and still struggle with the water..although I discovered Nestea Zero with splenda..and it is really really good.
I have been sick alot..chest pains and throwing up..need to lie down..light headed..so not exercising much at all...need to step up with that..but still feeling better knowing I am on my way to better health and not still killing myself with donuts and ice cream..
that was a bad feeling. I am being proactive..so its all good.
tell us what you are eating..

I can relate Bethany, especially since I had a stricture a few weeks ago. I am pretty nervous about trying new things, I still stick to tuna and soups, I have started to eat some salads, and tonight enjoyed shephards pie. I tried to eat steak..really chewed it well, it went alright, but chicken does not sit well with me. I also tried to eat an apple yesterday and I think it was the skin that did not sit nicely. I have had things with more sugar than recommended with no dumping, so I will have to be careful.
I crave ice/slushies/cold cold cold drinks..I wonder why? its very strange.
I found this awesome sugar free italian ice, they are an awesome treat.
keep up the posts though --its cool to hear what others are eating.
btw--I am down 43 pounds..now.
yee hawwwww

That's great I am glad everyone is doing ok! I think I still have a fear of eating. I am always scared to try new things for fear I will get sick! Hope I get past this!!!!

I just about can eat everything. But, then again it is a lot of stuff that I still haven't tried yet. So far so good...

Anything that has less than 5 grams of sugar and/or 5 grams of fat per serving. No food problems at all. I am loving salads with grilled chicken or steak at the moment.

Hi...Sadie here. It's so great to "see" everyone and hear what's going on.
Ok, me: 317/277/150
Don't know about inchest.
struggles: protein and fluid, just like everyone else. But I rely on the 42gm protein bullets and they make up the difference.
what i'm proud of: i went to the gym for the first time today and had an hour long work out. And lived to tell.
focus for next week: make working out a habit (gawd...is that possible?)
Best of luck, everyone!! And keep in touch.

Melissa here. 281/248 dont know the inches.
strugles: eating enough. Im never hungry. I often forget to eat on the weekends until Im so tired I cant keep my head up. Suddenly I remember, oops you only had some breakfast this am. Its better during the work week. I guess because of break times.
Trying to cook more. I was on puree until last week so, now I get to experiment more and get some different tastes in. Funny how when your never hungry you cant make up your mind what to make for dinner. Happens to me all the time. I remember before surgery I would plan dinner at breakfast. Huge change for me!!!!
