New to forum

Hello,

I'm new to this forum and just had my RNY surgery June 16, 2015. I appreciate all the the threads and knowledge shared here, I'm learning a lot! I started the process in January 2015 at 375lbs. I'm down to 289.6 and for the most part things have gone well.

i had a scare last week, my only one so far. I was out golfing with friends and lost focus and ate too fast. Had terrible chest pain and nausea at the same time. Three hours later I vomited and had almost had instant relief. Lesson learned, slow down and focus.

Good luck to all!

Greetings and welcome to the Loser's Bench!

There are three ways that a person can learn:

1.  Read the instructions.

2.  Watch somebody else.

3.  **** on the hot wire yourself! 

You **** on a lot of hot wires on the WLS journey!  I miss the ball peen hammer to the sternum sensation when I over do it.  Watch out for chicken, beef or any meat that is too dry.  Ticket(s) to drive the porcelain bus.

Sounds like great advice!

i'll be sure and take it!

And I have no intention of taking the porcelain bus!

Welcome to dumping syndrome. That will be a great tool to teach you on not what to eat and it will make it much easier to avoid the foods that you don't need.
