I went to Dr Borland in New Iberia, LA. Great dr. Procedure is done outpatient. He requires you to stay at a local hotel and he does rounds at the hotel. You stay 2 days and on the third day you...

I am doing both. Started losing 1 day after reaching 4 months. Tomorrow makes 5 months and it is still coming out like crazy. I take biotin 10,000 also. Hopefully it will stop soon.

Thanks for all the replies. I guess i am just going to stick with the premier for now. After thinking about, it i can justify what i am paying for it by looking at what i am saving on the grocery...

Any suggestions for a good pair of running shoes?

Are there any protein powders that taste similiar to premier protein. I have been using the chocolate flavored ones and like the taste but the cost is killing me. Any recommendations on something...

I will call on monday. I found some gas x strips i had left from surgery. Used 3 and got relief. I am going to try to be more conscience when eating to make sure i am not swollowing air.

I'm 3 and 1/2 months out. I cant figure out what i am doing wrong. Lately, usually at least once a day after eating i get trapped air under my diaphram. I try and try to get it up but it stays...

Called this morning. No blood work necessary unless having problems.

I am 3 months post op. Since i am so far from the office i only made one post op visit. I havent called or anything since i am doing fine. My question is were you ever required to do any followup...

Dr Borland in New Iberia, LA. 9800.00 plus what it cost for a 2 day hotel stay since he does outpatient. Includes followup care.

I had wendy's chili at 21 days and did fine. I ate a serving and froze 2 servings. 3 meals from a 2.00 cup of chili. My grocery bill is almost non existent.

No constipation. Its just kind of weird. The incision under my belly button looks fine. I was worried it could possibly be a hernia but there is no buldging.

Yesterday the inside of my belly button was hurting. If i touch the inside i had a sharp pain. Then last night the muscle under was hurting. Now today the area above is sore along with the inside...

I couldnt do whey based protein. It about killed me. I got some unflavored soy powder. It has been a lifesaver for me. I mix a scoop in 8'oz of skim milk and a bit of peanut butter and blender in...

I have never heard of this type of protein before. Any suggestions on brands and where to buy this type. Also what do you mix it with.

Another thing is i am not loosing any weight either, so this makes me doubly sad.

I have tried ready to drink whey types and soy based powder. The soy based powder i mixed in some soup. I takes everything in me to even get them down. About 30 minutes later i start having the...

I have come to the conclusion that i cant tolerate protein drinks. I went this morning and bought yet another kind. It affected me the same way. I feel fine until about 30 minutes after consuming...

Wow!!!! Well i can tell you i never want to dump again. Horrible feeling. I was not even aware of such a thing. Have to read up on dumping. Thanks truffles for your info.

I drank the gatorade recover one. Shortly after here come the cramping and diarrhea. I managed to get some done on tuesday and the same thing happened only worse. I thought i was dying. My...

I found one that isnt making me gag. Gatorade brand recover protein shake. I was happily sipping on it without gagging. Then i happened to look at the label and that made me gag....loaded with...

I ordered some syntrax unflavored today from amazon. I am having an aversion to sweet stuff after the surgery. I will try to mix it in milk and ice when it comes in. Im just at my wits end here. ...

I simply cannot find one that i can get down without throwing up. I am 10 days now and need to start getting some protein in. Why do they have to be so disgusting? What am i going to do? I need...

Post op day 8. I had such a good day yesterday and bam at around 6 i went to get up from my chair and doubled over in severe pain. Almost like the after surgery gas pain felt like gas stuck under my...
