Hey guys good morning first day on purée foods. Any recommendations ? Even some tips or food choices thank y’all xoxox

Everything seems about right! Have you reached out to your NUT and surgeon? I'd say this is pretty slow loss considering what you are eating. One thing I can say, I stalled after 2 weeks post op, and did not start loosing until I started exercising. I mean, cardio with keeping my heart rate increased for 30mins+ per day. This isn't meant to sound bad, but obviously your physical activity at your job wasn't enough pre surgery, so it may not be enough post surgery. Some vets on here don't believe as much in exercise, but we have almost identical stats and exercise worked for me. I'm 8 weeks post op and down 65lbs. Also, I increased my calories at about 6 weeks post op to around 800-900 calories per day. I track 100% of my food & exercise on MyFitnessPal. I keep my carbs to under 50 grams per day and my protein at around 75 grams. I don't eat any pasta, white bread, processed sugar, processed foods (for the most part, about 95 fresh/5 processed split), caloric drinks, or alcohol. I'd like to see what your stats are after logging you food for one week.

That's an excellent food choice, @AshAsh1. I'll have to keep this one in mind.

What magic words did you use to be able to skip purees? LOL!

Folks here have offered some amazing advice that I would echo wholeheartedly. Remember you are doing this surgery for yourself and you shouldn't let anyone, no matter who they are tell you that you aren't good enough or aren't smart enough to know what's best for you.

Yes im having the same problem dr prescribed lactolose and mineral oil enema and it worked for a day im about to take liquid mag as well im having the same stalls as well to being constipated Sent from my SM-G935F using BariatricPal mobile app

I calculate from the date of my first WLS consultation, which is my highest weight (412) and from my day of surgery weight (310). However when I talk about it I generally just talk about the bigger number. The numbers being today 117.5 and 15.5 respectively.

I am so over my body. I was sleeved on 2/26/18. I have not lost any weight or inches. My cycle is beyond late. I am struggling to get 64 oz in but hitting my protein requirements. I work 16 hours a day 5 days a week as a floor nurse so I get plenty of exercise and walking. [emoji36]. Just my vent for the day.
