Weight Loss Surgery - Checking In

Just wondering how everyone has been. Anything new/exciting? I'm starting to get the hang of this postop life.

drinking going ok? you're getting your protein in? when do you start adding foods in?

I'm hopeful next week at my two week check-in that foods will be added. I've been able to get 60gm of protein a day, but am still working on getting in enough liquids. Yesterday was the first time I could get above 5cups. It is odd feeling full on 4 ounces.

LOL!! yes, it certainly is - but hold onto it! RNY gives new meaning to the saying 'eyes bigger than your stomach!!!'

I've had a few 'carby' days - not disastrous, but it's a bit weird.

sounds like you're doing well - how are you feeling overall? have energy? not too much pain? sleeping well?

yes, it sounds like you are doing very well! Glad to hear it! keep up the great work and your great attitude!

Thanks for the support! When I read the experiences of others, I feel really lucky. I haven't had much pain, nor much pouch rejection. It is weird feeling full on a few ounces, so even though my food choices are really limited, I'm trying to enjoy these weeks of little hunger.

I need a hobby though.
