I am new to this site. I am now 7 days post surgery. When I started the whole process I was at my HW of 391. DOS was 388. DOR was 372 & this morning was 359! I am on the plan that "solid foods" are still 4 weeks out. "Mush foods" are about 2 weeks out. While I am not usually hungry, I still find I want some food satisfaction! I am getting SOOOOOO tired of protein shakes and the limited liquid diet stuff!!! Any good ideas???

I had 2 ah-ha moments this week! I've been on a 2 week stint without losing any weight. I drink my Water but apparently I was not getting enough. Had a night where I got real thirsty and drank a lot of water. Ah-ha moment #1. (Things began to move!) Hallelujah!!! Ah-ha moment #2 happened today when I hit the gym for the first time since I came home. I walked on a treadmill for 1 hour. That's it! Talk about a movement!!! Between the water & the walk, my stall is now in high gear. So follow the 2 "W's" to keep things "moving"! HW 391 DOS 372 (9/23/13) Current 336 YAY ME!!!!

When people ask you how much weight you have lost so far do you guys go from your highest weight, or from the day you came home from the hospital?

My nut recommended Flintstones Complete. I was shocked but as an avid vitamin taker for years, I have also been pleasantly surprised!! I was kinda embarrassed to list them on the medication list at the doctors office only to have many nurses and doctors say that they are about the best multi vitamin out there!!!

My dr. Is keeping me on liquids till my first follow up oct 11. My surgery was sept 23....

No liquids.......

When have some of you started on your "mush foods?" You know, the step after liquids?
