I was told I had fatty liver. I still had my surgery. Surgeon only had me on liquids for 2 days. They did find it had turned to Cirrhosis. They said it will probably leave a scar on liver, but should heal itself being the liver heals itself. We will see in January when I see a specialist for it. They can't tell what kind of shape the liver is really in until the do surgery.

Anyone Plateau After Puree?
Carol Watts replied to Christina760's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I stalled at 2 weeks post op and stayed there for 4 more weeks. It will start to come off again. Scales are your enemy. As long as you are losing inches and dropping clothes sizes you are still doing good. Don't worry. Dr told me I was doing great even after hitting the stall. I was told to get me some loaded potato soup. I bought mine from Sam's Club. Some restaurants sale it also. It does change the calorie intake up and then you start losing again. -
I have done taco bell beans since right after surgery. One of the first things I wanted. I never liked taco bell before surgery.

So, My Critical Mother.....
Carol Watts replied to doxieville's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have the same problem, but mine is my grown kids. My step children is very supportive. Not my kids though. My husband even thinks my oldest is jealous, because she is struggling with weight issues. She won't call or anything since I had surgery I have to do all the calling. So I totally understand how you feel. -

Sick Of The Stall!
Carol Watts replied to mendymayhem's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
The 2 pounds can be fluid. Next the scale is your enemy. Go by your clothes sizes. Are you still dropping clothes sizes ? If so you are still loosing. Next drink all the water you can. Change eating habits for a day or two so your body won't be use to the same amount of calories. The stall will stop. I hit a stall and stayed there 4 weeks. You can search on here and there is alot of info on the dreaded stall. You will start back losing pounds. -
I am also in the Alexandria area. Maybe we could meet some time. If you are interested I would love to have a walking partner at the compton park sometimes.
