Hello I have a few questions I need answered. I am 2 months post op and have lost 100 lbs total . 65 of which was after surgery. I had my surgery on April 10th so I have no food restrictions. The questions I have are 1) if I get in more protein will it help lose weight faster. 2) if I drink more water qill that help with wwightliss 3) how many calories should I eat inn a day. Or how many calories is too much. 4th and final question is that I am tired of eating the same ahit. Eggs turkey dish blah blah blah does anybody have any good recipes to try that involves turkey and chicken but maybe just something new. Sorry if any of these words are misspelled my phone won't let me see what I'm typing until ibpost it

I need some help. I had my gastric bypass 6 days ago and allnis going very well. I haven't had and dumping or pain at all, except for the stitches. Anyways it has been 6 days and no weight loss at all. I have been able to get about 60ounces of water or more and been taking all of my vitamins. Is this normal? Also my Dr said I could start to eat once I felt hungry sonon Monday o tried some eggs and it was very good and I handled it well. Today I had some eggs and refried beans, very little amounts of course. Can anyone hive me some more ideas on what I can eat over the soft mushy food phase? Also sorry if there is misspelled words my phone doesn't let me see what I'm typing on here

Thanks everyone for all the help and support, you guys are awesome. Its nice to get advice from other people going thru similar situations. Although everyone is different and everyone experiences this differently we all still want the same outcome. To be healthy and to feel better about ourselves. I am 9 days post op, I am down 17 lbs now since surgery and overall 61 lbs since I started this in January. How is everyone else doing?

Anyone else here scheulednfornaprilb10th

Thanks alot guys, great advice.

My surgery sate is April 10th. I've been way too nervous and scared to even think about how much this preop diet sucks.

I never had to get an EGD. I hope it goes well for you. I had to have a sleep study, ekg, sonogram on organs and at least 2 visits with a dietitian. I am having the surgery in 3 days and am very nervous. My surgeon only required me to have a 1 week all liquid diet and it has been rough but you will be able to get thru it. Good luck on your EGD.
