Hi,

I'm new. I was banded Dec. 15 along with a sleeve plication.

I found this site on Google. I wanted to know why I stopped loosing as soon as I started mushy food.

 

I guess I'm not the only one.

I was instructed to start Phase III at my one week post op visit. Then I froze on the scale.

I had lost a total of 18 Lgs. 253-235 between the pre surgery liquids and the 1 week post visti.

I have been the same now for 10 days.

At least I know now from this site I'm not the only one experiencing this.

Thanks for the feed back.

 

I'm 66 years old and have had osteoarthritis for many years and have been on anti inflammatory drugs for years.

I have been off these meds for about a month now and my stiffness and knee pain is my main problem. I am having more discomfort from this than my surgery.

Has anyone else had to deal with this problem?

I have been told (by the Nutritionist) some anti inflammatory meds come in liquid form?

I would appreciate any input on this problem.

Congratulation on your surgery, I will have the exact same procedure than you in two days so I'm exited. Dont worry about not lossing weight in a steady pace that happens and is normal, but you need to see the calorie intake with the muchis you are adding many more calories than on liquids, keep doing your good job.

Welcome! I too have arthritis (osteo) and while ibuprofen does come in liquid form, I just bite a tablet into little pieces. Ibuprofen works best for me. I do not take as much since beginning to lose weight. My joints are already feeling so much better.

Congratulations on getting banded!
