So last blog was that i had found a substitute for milk a soy based one well i'm told it's not a good brand and had my fingers verbally slapped for it.
I'm 9 weeks post opt as of wed just past and still having a lot of difficulty with eating and drinking. I am the first patient to advise them of the intolerance to lactose... i am also the first pateint to say to them if this surgery were reversible i would be asking for it to be undone.
I knew this wouldn't be easy but this is crazy! They are demanding i drink 8 glasses of fluid a day... i can't do it! i'm lucky if i can get 3 or 4 in me. Right now the only things agreeing with me are the soy milk and apple juice everything else either hurts or taste funny.
I found lacteeze which is higher in protein but still can't manage alot... i've caughten a small sniffle and as with any cold when you drink milk products it makes you cough more and phelm up more so i have to disobey and stick to juice for a lil while longer.
I have blood work monday and this will determine if maybe my stomach isn;t healing correctly.
so far on my list of no no's are
crystal lights
jello
eggs
milk, cheese, icecream, yoguart
this surgery has been sucessful as far as loosing the weight goes. I started all this at 360lbs, got down to 307lbs on my own before surgery and now weigh in at 271.6lbs and have lost 10 inches off my waist. i am not happy about going down 2 bra sizes thankfully i'm still a DD but come on cut a gurl some slack lol.
