Tc44055 started following My psych eval today....

Just thought I would check in and give you all a progress report. Had my surgery on April 22, 2013 When I went to my first doctor's appointment I weighed 248 Today I weigh 195... It has been a rocky road. . Before the surgery I use to drink a ton of water..now it seems like I can't get my 8 glasses down and I don't get all my protein in a day. I get maybe 40/50 grams a day. I try. I still don't eat any breads or pasta (unless it is a lean cuisine) no pop.. no fast food.. no beer. I can tolerate EVERYTHING. .and I wish I didn't ..that scares me a little.

Tc44055 replied to Alex Brecher's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I am around 8 weeks and at 40 pounds (including pre-op).... -

So I think I will stay away from that for awhile.. all I pretty much eat is meat... chicken.. yogurt...eggs..protein shake here and there... it is still hard for me..I did bring a protein bar this morning to work..gonna give it a shot.

Plication vs Bypass vs Sleeve ?
Tc44055 replied to Tc44055's topic in Gastric Plication Surgery Forum
I went in today for my month check up actually it is 5 weeks and he called me his special patient. .. because of my pain tolerance. .. he assured me my surgery was flawless...and it is just a super tight stitch. He said he is glad he did not do a bypass on me (I was thinking in my head ..dude that was never an option) he also said I was doing better than his bypass patients regarding weight loss. I am down about 20 pounds since surgery date and 31 since I started this entire process. I am not sure if I am on schedule. Am I really gonna lose 20 a month? I am finally almost at 3 bottled waters. I am working hard on the protein. . Eating Tuna yogurt eggs and drinking slim fast high protein. I have had a couple Smart Ones.. I can only get about half of it down. Oh I am trying to eat a protein bar now... (not feeling it) I do find that i am getting hungry every 2/3 hours and that kinda freaks me out.I am feeling better. .everyday... I finally went on a walk a few blocks and back.. and I feel good ..tired but good. Sorry I am rambling. -

Tc44055 replied to Tc44055's topic in Gastric Plication Surgery Forum
I was just curious on what I can expect...since I feel my doc. Pretty much stretched the TRUTH about everything .... especially the pain . Lol... yeah I am still a little bitter..lol -
Wow.. only 2oz that don't seem like enough at all. I can do at least a cup or so..but I am getting hungry every 2 hours on point.. it is very strange..
-
I am going to try them again. I am not getting near what I should be. It is so had to keep track.
-
I am a month out too.. and still working on getting more than two bottles of water down day..it is hard.. and protein I am getting better.. I know it doesn't sound very good ..but for dinner I had a can of tuna with an hard boiled egg in it.. that was 24 grams of Protein right there.. greek Yogurt is I think l4 grams... keep trying... that is what I do... oh in the morning I will eat 2 soft boiled eggs that is |2 grams of Protein. .

Oh no... so sorry to hear this .I am not at ten weeks..and I never feel like vomiting. .may something your eating? What is your typical diet in a day

Do the sleevers..and bypassers loose more weight than the plicaters?
-
Are you able to get all your water in... I am stuck on maybe 40 oz a day.. I want to keep loosing... ! Are you doing any exercising yet? Today is a month since my surgery. .I still am taking pain medication daily and just starting to feel better.. it has been a tuff month for me.. I still am very weak and feel exhausted by the time I get home after work. I want this to pass ! I want this burst of energy everyone talks about.
