Wow what can i say im down 45lbs and feel great.Its amazing how good it feels to walk and move around with out the soreness i felt before but dont get me wrong i had my struggles like everyone else.I had a bad experince with a piece of salmon ,trying to figure out a good protein shake and dealing with the difference in the amount of food i could now take in but I can tell you one thing im glad i had my surgery.
if you try a food and it doesnt agree with you dont give up on it completely. try it again a few weeks/months later because as your new stomach/digestive system adjusts it will become more tollerant, I am nearly 2 years post op and there isnt anything i cant tolerate, i had problems at first with beef, fruit, and dairy but now i can eat anything
