Nope, I have not tried it, but I did buy some 100 calorie packs....I will try it this weekend though :-)

Have you started having hair loss? I had my surgery on 9/22/16, and I started taking 10,000 mcg of Biotin since May 2016 to get on top of the losing hair process. I am 3 months post op, and have...

I have "thrown up" three times. All three times was because I have eaten leftovers with veggies in it. I had a chicken soup that I had cooked with veggies...threw that up. I had leftover canned...

I think I read somewhere here that we can't ever have popcorn after being sleeved....is that correct? If so, why?

I had my surgery in Mexico. I had NO pain whatsoever. None. Nada. Zip. Zero. I never really had gas pains. I never had incision pain. I never had any kind of pain. I too was like, hmm, where...

We drink instant coffee (Nescafe with cinnamon....soo good), anyways....about 3 weeks before surgery I started to put less and less coffee in my hot water. Like literally, from 1 tsp I would...

Hi. I am wondering if anyone who has had surgery had constipation after surgery? I had surgery 9/22/16, and have NOT had a normal bowel movement....like not at all!! My last BM was 10/27/16 (I...

Anyone have any idea why my surgeon would say no to nuts and rice for the first 3 months? I bought trailmix with nuts and raisins, and they said no. They also said no to rice. I'm Mexican, I love...

Carbonation? Doesn't carbonation expand the stomach, therefore able to fit more food? I agree, working out is a good thing and probably gaining muscle and getting rid of fat...give it some...

Hi, I am 5 1/2 weeks out, and I feel like I can eat more than last week. I used to be able to only eat like 3/4 of a hard boiled egg, now I can eat the whole thing. I do feel hungry....like stomach...

I did not go alone. But, if I did, I would totally have been ok!! The only thing, is you would have to room with a total stranger, who is also in the same boat. We felt safe from the moment we were...

I felt the same way, and honestly, I think it was in my head...because in my head, I haven't eaten in years (haha) and my mind is making me think that I was hungry. I would eat a popsicle or a jello...

Does acid reflux ever go away??? I get it by just drinking plain water..... I'm tired of eating tums all the time!! Will it ever go way?

I took my sutures out yesterday. Has anyone had an infection in there incisions? It is yellow and oozing and open just a little. f so what did you all do. I have talked to a doctor and is...

I was taking (and can't wait to start again), B-12, multi-vitamins, vitamin C, and Biotin.

Thanks everyone!! I asked, and I can't start them again until 2 weeks after surgery....which is this coming Thursday. I just know I will feel better knowing I have vitamins in me :-)

When can we start taking our vitamins after surgery? I am 10 days post op and wanting to start them already....
