An ACTUAL WLS question......

The further post-op I get, the sicker I am ALL THE TIME. Does anyone else have this problem? If I eat greasy stuff.....SICK If I eat sugar........SICK If I eat carby stuff.......SICK If I eat dairy..........SICK If I avoid all the above, I am left with meat only and I am not a big meat eatter, as a matter of fact, I rarely eat red meat, I HATE fish, I HATE pork.....so all thats left is Chicken. Blah! I just want to feel good after I eat.....JUST ONCE! Hugs, Jen

the further out I get I am just tired .. I need to get to bed earlier.. my own fault. I go to bed 11ish and up at 5:30.. and about the same on the weekends.. up around 6ish or 7. I need to go to bed earlier.. eating.. I just ate sausage of the George.. yummie.. and for lunch I had a fried chicken breast from Krogers.. altho I guess I could be so tired cuz I ate fried food and Crunchy Munch that Michelle gave me.. How's those Peanut M&M's.. they going down good..

live on sf popsicles. thats what I often do . love me some popsicles. orange the most. then red. purple last. (& just so you know is part of what was occupying my cart today when I ran into a guy I work with....)

Yummmmmmmm, only Popsicle Brand popsicles do it for me. I have some in the freezer as I type this reply. My fave is cherry, then orange and then purple. I like to let them set a minute or two so they get a little mushy and don't hurt my teeth. Ron

and my FAV is Popsicle Brand Fudgsicles.. and last week I had a creamsicle.. it was delicious too.

OMG! I can't STAND popsicles! Ever since surgery....YUCK! They are so sicky sweet. Jay and I actually were just talking about this over the weekend. SF Jello is another ewwww!

guess WHAT. I finally have a cable company that provides channels that play hockey games. I'm watching red wings play st louis right now...and its sweet baby. almost as sweet as this popsicle I'm sucking on right now (I chose orange) p.s. sf jello = sf vanilla pudding = yummy

I like the Red, pink and orange Otter Pops. I got a stash in the pantry. I was at Costco yesterday and forgot about grabbing another box of them. I have the bottom drawer in the freezer stocked up all the time!! Oh, yes I see Ben & Jerry's have those 4oz size cups of Cherry Garcia now too... That was one of my big down falls before WLS... I wish they would come out with a s/f Cherry Garcia. Ok. I just finished my midnite snack and Yes it was a pink Ottter Pop!!

I am getting sick easier too. Weird. Carbs... my gosh. I am sorry to admit this -- but I have started using them as a sleep aid. One bowl of cereal, and I need to go to sleep 20 minutes later. But the frustrating thing is I can have a high-protein low carb (like 5 carb) meal, too... and STILL want to go to sleep not much later. OR I just dont' feel good. It seems to correspond with girl-time alot for me. So I think part of it is hormonal. I was sick ALL THE TIME when I was pregnant. EVERYTHING made me sick.

I think to a certan extent I feel that way too. I feel more fradgile? Does that make sense? It seems at the drop of a hat I feel like crap. I just don't get it sometimes. I still wouldn't change it and go back to the way I used to feel all the time. I know what ya mean about feeling good after you eat. I haven't decided if I'm looking for that "special" feeling after I eat, like the glow of a good cigarette from my other addiction or just feeling good. I think maybe the feeling bad may be a good thing on some levels or I'd be packing it back on. Good question Jen. Hugs, SParky
