I Had Gastric Bypass Surgery in 2003.....Need Guidance and Encouragement
Posted by: Anonymous User ()

I had gastric bypass surgery in 2003. I am very intrested in the Raw Foods lifestyle. I do have some concerns. In the past I have tried the vegan lifestyle, but my blood pressure would drop so low or my blood sugar would get so high that I would be sick. Here lately I have noticed weight gain and everthing that I eat makes me sick. I know that it is in the foods that I eat and I am frustrated. I feel really bad and sluggish and my skin is abnormally dry. I am wondering if anyone out there has had gastric bypass surgery. I love fruits and veggies and I am desperate to feel like myself again.Please Help with any advice.!!!

Just start eating more raw foods and read as much as you can about it.

I have low blood pressure and some other health problems too and have also had trouble with a raw diet, so am remaining open to eating whatever I need, rather than sticking to a raw doctrine. Any salt, food additives and alcohol are really bad for me, and simple raw foods feel best most of the time. I used to feel sick from eating everything, too.

I know nothing about gbs,sorry, but most people go raw because of health problems.
