Help! What is wrong with me?
Marquel replied to Marquel's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thank you everyone!!! You all are so great to pass this positive energy my way! I am looking forward to making some changes. Thank you again! -
I had surgery 1/24. I started at 237, today I'm 199. So 38lbs down. Which I am happy with but I would be so much further is I ate right and worked out. But I don't. I eat anything just smaller amounts and I'm so tired all the time I have no motivation to work out! I get frustrated when I don't lose weight but I know it's because of my bad habits. Is anyone else struggling?

I upped my water and broke my stall! Woohoo
-
I'm 3 weeks out and stalled for over a week. I'm getting in 700 calories a day. 60-80 protein. Been short on the water but got it all in today. Just wondering about the calories. How much should I go for?? I hate this stall. My husband seams surprised the weight isn't dropping off.

Ok so my coordinator said if you are grazing all day you won't lose weight or could gain it back later...but... I feel like I eat and drink all day and don't get all the protein in. I'm confused about this?

I just wanted to celebrate how good I feel. I am 16 days out and no issues. No nausea. A little tired now and then but over all I feel so lucky. I keep reading about everyone's "issues". So maybe we need to show newbies how many people feel great after surgery! I do! (I hope I don't jinx myself

Can please you explain how it works

I was sleeved on 1/24/13 in TJ by Dr Jose Rodriguez. Cost was $6800 and they do in house financing. You can put down $2500 and finance the rest. The website is www.beliteweight.com. Dr Rod has never had a patient with a leak which made me feel safer. My experience was great and Im so thankful for the quality of care I received. I feel really good and have had no complications. 20lbs down! -
When is it safe to start p90x. I am 15 days out. I was thinking 5 weeks so I'm past the safe mark for a leak. Can I have help with this?
-
Just curious when everyone started purée stage? I'm 10 days out and I'm suppose to start purée at day 14 but I'm doing so good would it be a big deal to start a little early?
-
I had surgery in Mexico and the gave me a two month supply to take home. She told me to take it in the morning and at night for 2 months but then I started to question it since I'm feeling pretty good. I will just take it. I guess I was more afraid to take that pill when I'm on liquids only. It's a good size
-
I'm 5 days out and I don't have any heartburn. Am I still suppose to take the antacid meds to prevent or only if needed?
-
I swear if I hear the word "journey" on more time, I'm gonna....!!! lol
-
Yeah I'm joking around but it really does make me crazy lol I kinda growl a little every time I hear it Thank you and I wish you all success in your adventure lol
-
My surgery is this morning. I'm asking for prayers for everything to go well during surgery with no complications. Thank you <3 Praise God for this new beginning
-
I'm out ok. Thank you all for your prayers! I'm just resting but good
-
Maybe just drink it after it stops fizzing. I love emergen-C! I think it would be fine.

My pre-op diet is just low carb not liquid, for 1 week only. Then reading the instructions said it took 10 days to show a change internally. So why am I only on it for one week then. Then I read some don't have a pre-op at all. I don't get it. I'm afraid I'll mess this up
-
My husband and I were talking about the surgery and he said "soon you will only have to worry about loose skin" I said, I think I may have a little on my stomach if any (I'm 235 now preop) Then he says to me "well you have a lot on your back" ...meaning fat! I thought to myself, ok so he thinks I'm going to have loose skin in my back!!! Or was this his last dig he will be able to get in, before I lose weight. Whatever! I was upset for awhile but I just thought... It will be gone soon! (Surgery 1/24)

I've been hearing about the use of the syrups but how do you use them? Dumb question probably... Lol I figure in the protein drinks and maybe oatmeal to guess but what else??
-
I watched a documentary on Netflix called "Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead". The guy does juicing only + water for 60 days and lost over 80 lbs. It is a great film. The nutrients are absorbed better with this method. I think juicing has tons of benefits and we could add protein powder as well. Anyone have good or bad thoughts on this. And how would I add it to my fitness pal?

I have the Jack LaLanne juicer and it works great! $100 but a pain to clean for sure
