anthoula replied to beachblondeee's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I was sleeved Apr 22 and have lost 57lbs so far. I was weighing myself daily and sometimes twice a day morning and night. Speaking with my dr yesterday she suggested once a week in the am with no clothes on. She said daily or more than once a day is not an accurate reading the body fluctuates water retention throughout the day. For accurate reading once a week. So I am trying not to look at the scale. Great progress everyone. Lets all keep up the great weight loss. -

I never heard of Dr Judd. TrinState Bariatrics is pretty big. They also have an office in rockland county

Yes I did pre-op. but unfortunately I had multiple ankle surgeries and didn't lose any do to the fact I was bed written for months due to the ankle surgeries.

It worked for my overnight. I took it at 9pm and had to go by 7am. I took the full dose and it didn't make me go all day.

Hey there, I have a pair of black soft leather pants I wore about 14 years ago. I refused to get rid of them. I will get my ass into them again. Was sleeved 4/22/13 and down 38lbs as of today. I have a ways to go but as I said before I will fit into them again. I can't wait. -

I too was sleeved 4/22 I have lost 29lbs. Can you tell me what you eat a day. I have 2 Protein shakes a day and in usually do 3oz protein 3 oz of a veggie or 3oz salad I will have 1 snack during the day which usually is fruit. I have not lost anything in 2 weeks and getting depressed. I do have a problem getting all my liquids in. I have to try harder getting the full 64oz of fluids in. Any advice? -
hey there I was sleeved on 4/22/13 and down 22.5lbs. and this was my first week on soft foods, dr told me that my 3oz of protein should be like a Canned Tuna Fish consistency. I found canned chick breast which is pretty good I added a half a tsp of fat free mayo some pepper and made chicken salad. I also boiled 3 oz carrots until they were very soft add a 1/2 tsp oc low sodium chicken broth and mash it with the fork. That was my first meal. I tolerated it pretty well. Also grilled salmon is very soft and tender. I was told to do 2 shakes and 1 meal. I prefer to eat my meal at dinner with my family. But was told plain Greek yogurt with a lemon crystal light mix is really good( never tried yet) low fat cottage cheese, egg whites. You will be surprised how 3 oz really fills you up. I have 1 more week on soft foods. Good luck.

Has anyone spent longer time on liquid diet then what the doctor suggests?
anthoula replied to JessicaAnn's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Just from reading on here every dr is different. I an 3 weeks post op. Day after surgery i was on water and crystal light for 5 days and then adding protein shakes 3 a day plus all my fluid intake for 2 weeks. I just started soft foods yesterday. I was told no soups and def no mashed potatoes. But again every dr is different. Good luck.
