How many calories are you averaging?
Bronco0605 replied to Ree's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am six weeks out today and now that i can stomach milk again i am averaging about 800. I am hoping the nurse will advance my diet to regular foods today then i can up it a little more. when my body gets out of starvation mode I think I will lose faster. -
How bad is the nausea?
Bronco0605 replied to SoCalMomOfFour's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am the odd one out here. I am almost six weeks post op and still nedd the zofran daily. Usually when I wake up is the worst. I also still need the medicine for stomach spasms sometimes the levsin or bentyl they both work well. Guess my stomach is really sensitive compared to others. -
I wanna guzzle down a bottle of water!
Bronco0605 replied to chanelle102's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I cannot drink at all like i used too and sometimes i feel so thirsty. it is definitly a problem for me. Small sips are not quenching my thirst at all. I can take bigger drinks now at almost 6 weeks out ao I am hoping it better with more time. -

I discovered that my sons teacher is the size I was shrinking out of so I passed my pants on to her, she really needed them. -
My nutritionist told me yesterday it is better to spread it out during the day because your body can process it better!

Three weeks out and not losing weight!
Bronco0605 replied to EggWithLegs's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I had a similar experience lost ten pounds the first week then gained in week two . Week three lost those two pounds I had gained. In week four I lost 6 pounds. hopefully I am on the downward slide now! -
You don't have a ticker, what was your starting weight? what is your goal?

You know the drill, are you getting your protein? your fluids? your exercise? if so keep at it. if not go for it. You will lose again!

Have had the gastric sleeve
Bronco0605 replied to sassymarie's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I bet that is really hard, losing a loved is never easy to over come. WHat are you eating now? What do you like that you know is good high protein ? Let's make a shopping list! -
I work from home teaching internet classes and I took two weeks off. My biggest problems on return to work were sitting for long periods hurt my abdomen and concentration, concentration was definitely harder! I think you will be okay !

Surgery postponed, but not VLC Diet
Bronco0605 replied to crinch's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
Are you on a liquid diet? Can you work out something with your ntutritionist since you have no definite date? -
Some things I know for sure. Other things nope!
Bronco0605 replied to RJ'S/beginning's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
right there with ya! No coffee here because decaf and skim with splenda is so fake and gross I don't even try to fool myself! -
Not sure what to say to your question yet but Iam thinking about it. Muscle building , maybe some resistance bands they are not expensive , easier than weights and a good starting point. maybe you need more strength training type stuff right and less cardio focus just for now. but I am definitely no expert.

Hospital here I come!
Bronco0605 replied to Teachamy's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Good luck I hope all goes well for you! -
Awesome you must be so excited! I am so proud of you!

Have you tried crystal light in your Water? Or G2 ? Powerade zero? Anything sugarfree that will help you get some Fluid in. Also try warm or cold to see if one temperature is more tolerable. I had a really hard time at first too! I almost had to go back to the hospital for fuids . Try decaf tea, broth diluted juice what ever it takes . You can do it. I was miserable for the first week then it slowly got better.

The protein shakes still produced solid stool for me too the whole way through. they were softer twoards the end but still solid.

delayed gastric emptying?
Bronco0605 replied to KayCTheNewMe's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It sounds like the stomach spasms that I have, Did your doctor give you any medcine for that? Like levsin or bentyl? It works wonders. I am four weeks out and I still have the spasms you are talking about. -

How much weight did you lose during your first month post-op?
Bronco0605 replied to gemgirl's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I lost 14 pounds in the first month. I am happy with that. Our bodies are adjusting to so much. We have to be patient and consistent! -
Maybe the cut , brand, style, fabric. Could be anything! Go to the thrift store and really shop around for something with a small price tag that works for you.
