How Many Calories A Day Do You Usually Eat?
Michellefaina replied to Michellefaina's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yes... I just started keeping track myself and are still on soft foods. I average between 600-850 calories a day. I am worried I am taking in to many calories! -

Do You Feel Better When U Can Finally Eat?
Michellefaina replied to mgood's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
YES!!! I was exhausted, dizzy, felt Like I was going to faint each time I stood up and weak for the first three weeks! When I was finally able to start soft foods I slowly started to gain more stamina. Now I am about 1.5 months out and I feel great! Hang in there it's gets better! -

I am almost 2 months out and can only eat about 1/4 of them and then I am so Full!!! However there are certain things for me that I can eat more of. Maybe pintos and cheese is that one thing for you! -
I don't know if it's normal but I am 1.5 months post op and I chug water like crazy!!! It goes right down no problem.

I was dizzy for the first few weeks whenever I would stand up. I came close to passing out a few times. My doctor told me That this was very normal And nothing to worry about. The dizziness has finally passed!

Thanks everyone... Guess I'll just keep pushing forward with what I'm doing! -
I'm four weeks out from surgery. The first two weeks I lost 21lbs since then I haven't lost anything! I'm getting so discouraged like I'm doing something wrong! I am following my doctors advice on what to eat etc. Scale is stuck at 168!!! What's the longest you had a stall for?
