  I am just the opposite, I am never hungry, I have to be reminded to eat. But I am also having some problems with food, I throw up often and cant really get much in. Going in to have a scope done next week, even though I dont want to. But I need food, cant live without it!
  Call your doc, or Nut and see if they will talk to you about it! But do you stay away from fluids after you eat? I dont touch anything for an hour after I eat! I know theres so many rules, and every doc is different... Makes it hard to find someone who understands your specific program...

Topic: RE: Afraid to try a salad after RNY
  I buy ettuce already shredded, add cheese, spray on dressing lowfat of course, half a boiled egg white only, chopped. Usually a few slices of cucumber chopped, 2 or 3 crutons, and a tablespoon of some crunchy bacon bit things.  I love it, I eat at least two a day! Sometimes with tuna, or chicken or even hamburger on them.  Now I dont do good with any other fresh veggies, Broccli or anything, unless its cooked to a soggey mess!

Topic: struggling
I posted this on the rny general forum but I thought I would ask my fellow december surgery peeps if anyone has noticed an increase in hunger.  I am sure that this is not head hunger.  I notice that I don't get the full feeling anymore and if I eat, I am hungry about an hour later.  I don't want to start eating all day but that is what it is leaning too.  I am drinking about 90 oz of water a day.  I don't think it would be dehydration.  Tried to talk to my nut at support group but it never happened.   Just wondered if anyone else noticed changes.  Granted, my surgery was 12/4 so I am almost 4 months where many of you are just reaching or have just reached 3 months.

Thanks
christine

I haven't had a full blown salad but I have tried small bites of  lettuce from Ceasar salad from some eateries and other raw veggies, Had no real problems, which is good cuz I love fresh Jersey tomatoes.

Have you talked with your nut or your surgeon recently? They may have better info for you.

Someday when you least expect it, like the way it happened to me, You will be half way there.

Keep up the good work.

Hey Tom! Sounds like all is going great for you. That is fantastic. I have 8 lbs until I am half way there. I never really thought of it that way. Now I have a goal for sure. I was at the gym today AGAIN. Last week was not so great. I only made 3 days but I was sick. The week before I did 5 days. I am aiming for 5 again this week. We do different body parts daily so we are okay going day after day. I also do the cardio daily. You were my inspiration in the beginning. I couldn't believe how soon you were at the gyn working out with the trainer. It made me feel like a slacker and I got the urge. I thank you for that. Now I have to get to 1/2 too because you did. I am competitive too. heh heh

I haven't had salads yet.  I am scared of leafy greens.  Has anyone had problems digesting?  Or is it okay to try now?
