Are you guys outta your stall yet? I'm at week 3 and haven't lost a pound since Monday. I am totally prepared for the 3 week stall everyone goes through but I'm on full liquids and am having a lot of issues getting anything think down. I'm able to get blended creamed Soup, blended greek yogurt, and nectar Protein Water... but that's seriously it! I'm not even close to getting 64oz of fluids in, and maybe get 60g of protein in a day.... I'm so sad! I was so excited to drink my yummy chocolate Protein shakes, but NOPE, they dont go down! So, I was just wondering if ya'll were able to break your stall and at which week did it break? For me, it's not like I can up my calorie intake, or increase protein, etc. I have come to accept the fact that it's gonna take me a while longer to move through the stages. But any advice would be appreciated!!

Cottage cheese with seeded cucumber n seeded tomatos with salt n pepper is the BOMB!! Also, I used plain non-fat greek yogurt with a bit of sugar free jelly is delicious!!

Consider yourself lucky!!! I'm 15 days out and am struggling getting anything significant down, even water!! I'm on full liquids now and have to water my protein shakes down with lots of water and ice. I can't even finish a 20oz bottle of Nectar protein drink.

BTW, I only weigh myself once or twice a week and am down a full 20lbs!!!!! 2wks since surgery and am down 20lbs!!!!!!! I'm so excited!!! I LOVE MY SLEEVE

Wow....i just started my full liquid stage and made mushroom soup with a full can of milk, blended it up real good and am slowly eating it now. OMG, I remember why this has been my favorite Campbell's soup!!!! Its so delicious!! I weighed out 3oz, let's see exactly how much I can actually eat. So much happier now. Got really sick of Isopure!!!

Great job on the weight loss...i too am nowhere near that. I'm down 16lbs and am 12 days post-op. I'm still on clear liquids and won't start full liquids til monday. I am like you tho and am so ready to eat. I get really hungry but then as I start to eat some broth, I get full really quickly. I did try yogurt yesterday and was only able to eat a few bites. I'm shocked you're eating so much already. Did your doctor say that was ok?

You are all so lucky. I was sleeved last monday, 4/25, and won't be able to do full liquids til next wk. I'm ready for some yogurt or soup!! I just got back from urgent care...have a fungus down in my nether region which is from not enuff air. Doctor saidmost women get this under their breasts but I got it in the most painful place. Lucky me...ugh!!!

I've tried all of them except the tea, not a fan of tea period, and loved all of them. Its a great way to get a lil flavor to the water.

Happy...did you get those shots today? Which flavor did you get? I just ordered the grape one from www.mybariatricpantry.com Do you like them?

O, I hear you. I was sleeved 4/25 and I'm still struggling to get in all my liquids and protein!! Its been 7 days for me and I'm still weak and tired. I know it will get better...i just keep going its tomorrow. I'm not awful or sick, it's just harder to drink than I thought it would be. I was up 3lbs coming home from the hospital but today I'm down a total of 5lbs since surgery. Yay!! Keep plugging along and force those fluids in. we should see results soon!!!!

I'm on clear liquids for another week but its ok since I can hardly consume enuff fluids to keep me hydrated right now. I did good yesterday...got 64oz in and drank 80g of protein but today was more challenging. I made the mistake of having a Cytomax protein drink first thing in the morning, thinking I was as good as yesterday, but it made me sick from both ends. I know it's different for everyone but it seems like I'm struggling more than others...very discouraging

I'm so jealous!!! 6 days post op and still having trouble getting in all my liquids...what's wrong with me?????

Monday was my surgery. Came home on wed. Am struggling to get fluid in. I might get 16oz or 20 a day but that's all. I simply can't get any more in. what's the trick? Is it cuz I'm still swollen and healing? I don't really have much pain. Doctor only made two incisions. One near my belly button and the other to the left of that one. Gas is not really painful either, just loud...lol.

Congrats to you ToDream!!!! Are you able to eat ice chips without pain yet?

Wow...I'm not able to eat til week 4 and them its pureed food. How long until I will be able to take a drink without that tightness in my throught?

Are you able to finish all your food yet? Or are you still struggling with softs too?

Im only 4 days out and still swollen and struggling to get my 64oz in at all, let alone counting protein yet. How long did it take for you to actually finish a bottle of water, or a full 64oz in a day? Please tekl me your experience. Im not worried, just curious!

Good luck @ToDream! I'm home. My 2 & 4 yr olds saw my ouchies and have been so sweet and gentle. My mom took the kids for a few days so that's so nice. I've been able to take a few naps and walk and fart. Hows everyone else doing?

I should be going home today but now I'm scared to leave....i have two small kids who love their momma very much. I'm afraid they're gonna hurt me. But, if rather be home than here. I'm still on a pain pump so I don't know how that's gonna work when I go home.

Had my surgey yesterday and am still in the hospital. I'm in more pain than I expected!! Ive been in and out of consciousness and threw up. That was very painful!!! I'll keep you all posted

Today is the Day!!! I made it thru the clear liquids and am all packed for the hospital. We leave here in two hours. I'm so excited!!! Good luck all....how are the early April sleevers doing???

YOU DID IT!!!!!!! Congrats my friend!!!!! So happy for you!!!

Liquid is ok...not too bad. Isopure n Cytomax are great!! But tomorrow I'm gonna be cranky!!!
