I had a 2 week stall at weeks 7 and 8, then lost 4 lbs week 9.

I was sleeved 12/29; lost 15 pre-op and 27 since surgery. I have no nausea or vomiting and the only thing I have problems getting down so far is chicken. I get 50 - 60g of protein every day and I'm working hard at getting 40 - 48 oz of liquids each day. My calories are usually 700 - 1000 per day. However, I have not lost a lb in 2 weeks! Don't know if I'm eating too much, or not enough!

Surgery on the 29th, one more week of full liquids then puree's for 3 weeks starting 1/19. Lost 15 lb on the 2 week pre-op diet and 11 lb since surgery for a total of 25 lb!

I've lost 5.5 lb since surgery.(14.5 lb on the 2 week liquid diet) As long as the scale keeps going down, not up, I'll be happy!

Went into surgery at 7am on the 29th. Was aware of being in my room sometime in the afternoon. Slept most of that day, but got up to walk at 10pm. Got my catheter out and walked 5 times on the 30th. Sipped on crystal light all day. Took 2 percocet before the 1hr ride home. Still having gas pains but less every day. No more pain pills for me, they just make me more nauseous. Taking anti nausea medication every 6 hrs and it really works. Slept pretty well last night. Started on 4oz shakes today. Feeling pretty good. HAPPY NEW YEAR to everyone!

aHealthierMe121714 try taking zinc tablets every 4 hrs and emergenC several times a day. I have 2 sick grandsons and I babysit alot and I've been doing this all week. Have not gotten sick. (Knock on wood) If I can't have the surgery next week, I have to wait until March when my husband picks up vacation! He's on holiday next week. Will be praying for us both!

Day 11 of my ALL liquid diet! The weekend was tough with the family eating pizza! I almost gave in! But I didn't. This week I feel more hungry than last week. Maybe I've used up all my liver fat stores? Lost 12.5 lbs, so that helps. Only 4 more days! I only have to make through Christmas dinner with my chocolate mint Protein shake and chicken broth and I'll be good. I have not had any nausea or headaches thank God, but I get super cranky when I don't have my Protein Shake on time! I'm starting to get excited! Merry Christmas everyone!

I'm Dec 29th also! Started the liquid diet yesterday. I get 5 protein shakes and all the clear liquids I want per day. I am trying not to think about 12 more days of this! They say it gets easier after the first 3 or 4 days. I hope so!

I'm Dec 29th! 3 more days until the dreaded liquid diet!

My surgery date is Dec 29. I'm a little worried about lack of energy and headaches while on the 2 week liquid Diet! Other than that, I'm very excited! I've been more than 200 lb for over 15 years. I had both my hips replaced 4 yrs ago (dysplasia) and now have major knee and back pain (osteoarthritis). Can't wait to be 90 lb lighter!
