  • I am 8 months out from RNY and can eat more now. I too worry about stretching my pouch. I am interested in other's experiences.

  • I miss pasta dishes. Thought I would miss sodas, but that hasn't been a problem at all. The biggest challenge is not so much which foods, but the timing of eating, then avoiding fluids for an hour.

  • I am 6 months our from RNY. My dietician told me just to count protein and carbs and first priority is getting the recommended amount of protein. My surgeon wants 80 grams of protein and 25-50 gams of carbs. Follow your surgeons guidlines regarding pritein, carbs, and vitamin suppliments.

  • I have been getting 80 grams of protein a day. My feeling is, if protein levels are too low the hair loss will be more pronounced than if you keep your portein levels up.
