Topic: RE: Dumping!!
Thanks!! I didn't do it on purpose that's for sure! I bought it cause my nut. told me to get it. I guess i'm just super sensative to the sugars. I was just surprised cause I bought the no suger added but I guess it had enough in it to bother me!! Atleast I know now that I dump, so I won't be tempted to cheat. So I guess it's a good thing!!

Topic: Dumping!!
I am a little over 2 weeks post-op and I just got cleared to eat pureed foods. So today I thought I would have some organic apple sauce with a dash of cinnamon.(Just cinnamon)No sugar added!! Big mistake.... I have been dumping ever since!! I have the worst stomache cramps and(t.m.i) you know what happens after that! I havn't felt nausiated or had any urdge to throw up, so that's good I guess. So needless to say, I won't be eating that again!! Is there anything I can do to aliviate the stomach cramps?? Thanks

Topic: 2 weeks post-op appointments
WooHoo!

I had both my nutritionist and surgeon 2 week post-op appointments today.  I've lost 15 pounds since surgery.  (Scale at the nut. was .5 lower than my scale at home and at the surgeon was .5 more than the home scale.)

All the steri-strips removed and stitches trimmed.

Now I'm on to Phase 4 diet.  I don't know what I'll have first.  I'm excited, yet scared.

Next appointment barring complications is June 18th.

Any one have a recommendation for a food scale?

Cheers to all!
    
31 lbs. lost before surgery!  My goal is 150lbs.  My surgeon's goal is 110lbs.  I just can't imagine that weight right now.  Maybe someday . . .

It really is amazing how awesome we feel when a piece of clothing fits our bodies better than before; WOW moments. It's small WOW moments like these that make it all worth it, while we wait for the real reward...the rest of our lives!

I'm so happy for you! Keep us posted; there are many more moments coming your way and we love to hear about them!
 
Enjoy your weekend!

Congratulations!

Keep walking and resting. Ask for pain meds BEFORE it gets really bad. Every moment is easier!
