Hi, I am a newbie here, too. When I had my first surgery my BMI was 40. For my revision my BMI was about 38. I hope to lose around 100 lbs. I am just over 3 weeks post op from an open RNY. My incision is pretty healed and I'm not feeling too bad. A little tired but getting better. I had to take the trash out today and that really wiped me out. I am eating solids now, just protein and was doing good but yesterday I threw up twice. Once after taking my vits and the second time after eating some beef. Meat seems to make me nauseaus but usually it passes quickly. If it happens again I may stop eating it for a while. I am getting my protein in with food but I have a protein drink daily, too. Hardly any carbs at this point since I am concentrating on protein at the moment.
Good to meet you all.
