Topic: Having Issues!
I had my bypass on Oct 3 , 2007. I had a rough time the first week. I couldnt drink any of the shakes. Finally my nurse told me to try insure plus, and it worked. I went to my 2 week post op and they said that in all I had lost about 30 pounds. Well he wanted to have me lose 10 more in 2 more weeks. The scale hasnt budged. I know im not doing everything right though. Im not getting hardly any water in. Im trying to eat chicken and turkey but i just throw up or have bad diarriah. Im not sure what to eat. Im so week that I havent been walking. Im a litteral mess. Can somebody please give me the ABC's on what im doing. I feel lost and alone. Hope to hear from you soon. Angela M.

Kevin, I had my Bypass on Oct 3 2007. And I can not figure out what to eat. Im having a hard time with meats. I usually throw up. I am not drinking enough water. I have already been back to the ER for fluids. If you could help me figure out what I can eat that will give me some energy and help me get on that losing streak. I havent lost any weight in almost 2.5 weeks. I have an appt with my surg. on the 15th. And I am always hungry, did you have that? If you could help that would be great. Angela

Topic: RE: New Pouch/New Diet??
I tried the bullets and didn't like them at all because they were too thick and sweet. But then someone suggested I mix them in my water. So, now I mix the 3 oz. bullet and 5 oz. water and I really like them. Plus, I'm getting 27 g of protein in my hourly 8 oz of fluids. I get the Isopure drinks at GNC - so far I've tried them all except the Apple Melon and Icy Orange. My favs are Mango Peach and Blue Raspberry. My nuts guidelines are 8 oz. of fluid each hour, so it takes me a while to get the whole bottle down, but it's 40 g of protein total, so I make it happen. I can pretty much drink all the other flavors by adding some crushed ice and let them water down a little. I also drink Special K Protein water - lemon flavor. Tastes to me just like real lemonade. It has 5 g of protein and I typically only drink one 8 oz. serving of the 16-oz bottle because of the sugars in the whole 16 oz.

I am sorry to read that you have such a hard time with the band. I was just at my doc yesterday wondering which procedure to go with and I finally desided RY. Keep us posted. Mindy

glad to hear the good news. sorry about the bad news but I think this is a common happening. I have 2 friends that had RNY and developed ulcers in the pouch. The one friends was caused from drinking soda when she knew she wasnt suppose to drink them. The other friends has just had problem after problem since her RNY Will keep you in thought and prayers
