How much did you lose at 1 week post op?
Mandee80 replied to mcdoja's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
20 lbs since surgery June 11th. Weighed 315 day of surgery! Scale today says 294! Whoo hoo ! -
Lol! It makes it hard when ya gotta work! And I have another question? Why is it some docs make ya wait a month before soft foods and other are like a week out? I just don't get it? I jus started 2 weeks full liquid.
-
Yea I just tried one today. I think I can get it all down before the end of the day. 35 grams of protein tho. And way better than the shakes ya make with powder.. Eww that didnt sit well with me at all!
-
Omg! I hope that it gets better! I'm 9 days out and started diarrhea yesterday and it hasn't stopped yet! Ugh! Sooo frustrating! Can't imagine 6 weeks of it!!!! can we take anything for it?
-
This is a little TMI but I have to ask. I'm 9 days post op and last night I was having watery BM all night and into this AM. Feeling blah. Had my first taste of a protein shake yesterday. Could that of been the reason??? Has that happened to anyone else?

My nurse said today(I'm 6 days post op) she doesn't understand why ppl fight the pain meds. That's why they give them to you... Struggling through the pain isn't going to heal you any faster . And it's going to take more than one bottle of pain meds to become addicted to them. Mine have been a blessing. I am down to taking one script and one Tylenol. All is going great! drain tube out Wednesday! Whoo hoo
-
Had mine last tues.... I know how you feel! They wheeled me into operating room and I had to scooch from one bed to the op table, and as I lay there watching everyone and seeing these machines... I told nurse you better knock me out soon cause I'm starting to freak out! Lol
-
I'm a week post op and my feet are always cold too! Wth?! Lol
-
I taken my pain meds everyday until today and I'm on my 6th day post op. and I hurt everyday... Everyone's different. I mean they did after all stick 6 things thru your abdominal wall and re arrange your insides. I thinks it only natural to hurt for a week or so!
-
Amen to that! People that aren't big just don't get it. I could diet Hard and excersize for a year an MAYBE lose 50 lbs lol ~maybe~
