Well I am so scared. Don't know if I am ready. This was not planned. Undecided if I wanna go through with this. I need to hear others experiences....

Hi!! I don't know if anyone remembers me. Karmagirl. My surgery was 11/15/12. I have been feeling great and have lost 60 pounds. No problems since surgery. However, I just had a positive pregnancy test. I can't believe it... this wasn't supposed to happen. Undecided on how to proceed. Not sure if I am ready to take risks??

Lol. Really? Wow. So tell me what your weight loss has been like. I thought I was the only one. Just sucks to starve and lose nada in 10 long long days. I'm like what???!! Very frustrating

Thanks. I hope so just a little frustrated since I don't eat much and stay hungry

Help. My first 6 days post op I lost 16 pounds and now for the past 10 days, I have lost ZERO! 0 pounds. Why? I feel like I am starving for nothing... I am still on puree stage.

Help! I lost 16 pounds the first 6 days post op. The last 10 days I have lost 0 pounds. Zerooo!! Why, if I am still on puree stage and now I feel lije I am starving for nothing......since no weight loss anymore.

So glad Eva and Worm are ok! Yay! I am 9 days post op. Down 15 pounds. On full liquids which is way better than clear liquids. It's been so hard as far as keeping to the strict diet. Can't wait till the next phase. I want some food. Lol. On thanksgiving I cheated, had a dixie cup full of mashed potatoes, but it went ok!! It's just that it was hard. So much food and lots of temptations. Plus it was all at my house. And no I didn't cook...Lol

Ok so I've done all the testing, waiting on insurance approval.

Me too!

I hope so. I had a ritz cracker. I did tiny bites and made sure it dissolved. Went fine. Felt better

Well I wasn't going to really eat one. Lol. But thanks for the heads up. It's just that I am still on clear fluids stage and it's so hard. Luckily, I get lots of fluids in easily. I just want at least shakes and food would be better. I do get hungry and I feel weak

I'm hungry. Post op 4 days. Liquids is hard as hell to stick too. I just want a big fat juicy hamburger!

Yay. Post op buddies

You can do it

Your so good, I weigh everyday. I can't wait till my week 2 post op. that's when I get oatmeal and yogurt. Sticking to liquids is so hard! It's the hardest part of surgery- The post op diet. time needs to fast forward. It does help me to see weight dropping plus I go on instagram and youtube and watch/see weight loss success stories/videos from WLS and GBP

It gets better, walking helps get rid of the gas and promote faster healing. Just walk as much as u can or laps around ur house. Good job girl!

To everyone going to have surgery- it's not as bad as we think. I was off pain meds after 2/3 days. Today is day 4 post op for me. I feel good and don't regret it one bit. It gets hard sticking to the post op diet and I'm sometimes hungry and craving stuff but hey WE DID THIS SURGERY FOR A REASON!! Gotta stick to it. Best of luck to those still recovering!!!! Prayers for a fast healing!!!! Day 4 post op and Iv'e lost 10 pounds

Hope it gets better, Give it time! I thought this would be 10x harder too!! Try different temperature fluids and sip slow.

Walk walk walk. I am day 4 post op and I feel good! Off my pain meds and I make sure to rest but constantly get up and walk around the house and I make sure to get my own water, broth, etc just to keep my body moving and walking

.

Me too. Glad ur doing well also! I'm loving this crystal light stuff

You'll do just fine!!!!
