At what stage were you all comfortable with soft scrambled eggs? What foods 2 weeks out of surgery were the easiest during this time? Any good ideas?
-
When I started my pre op diet I was 285 the day of surgery I weighed 271 and I was sleeved 2/25 I now weigh 258 but I also have noticed that I'm not losing steadily it stops and goes often but when I'm losing its a lb a day

Exactly two weeks since surgery and I've only lost 8 lbs, I feel like I know that stalls happen but why me why now :(

Confession time: Can't stop lying about my surgery!
melhach replied to gofigure's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
What's so wrong with the truth? -
I was sleeved 2/25 and altho at first getting my liquids in was hard I now get about two premier shakes a day to get my 60g of protein and I get water in, I've tried scrambled eggs and everything goes in fine and altho in small portions I feel like I'm not losing weight! The scale hasn't budged in a few days and it's weird because I only get 320 calories a day!

Thanks everyone I've only lost 7 lbs and I'm doing everything right just sad that my scale just isn't moving! I'm looking forward to it moving again and altho the weight hasn't budged I'm noticing my belly is shrinking and my panties are getting loose lol

Only losing 1lbs a day
melhach replied to nikki1980's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I've only lost 7 lbs since 2/25 when I was sleeved I thought I was having it hard but if your losing a lb a day wow that's a lot -
Update lol the eggs go down well but one fills me real good two is to much and I scramble them also with a bit of low fat cheese yum but that's about all I can tolerate at this point

I've only lost 7 lbs since I had surgery on feb 25 and I'm so depressed about it I don't understand why since I'm not eating and only drinking protein shakes and yogurts
-
I was sleeved on 2-25 I tried scrambled eggs today and it went great but I couldn't finish a full egg lol it was more like 6 pieces of the egg and little ones at that and I felt like I had eaten a huge meal
-
I'm the same but I feel it like a bubble passing! I know I need to sto or slow down

3 days out - protein?
melhach replied to chrispina's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I absolutely agree protein is the most important I to am 7 days out and I get my Premier Protein in 2 a day and then I get my water in! I tolerate it quite well, I know when I feel full but I have tons of energy! I also take a chewable multi vit twice a day! -
I was sleeved 2/25 and I was on clear liquids for the first day but they served me protein shakes at the hospital on day two and now I'm on protein shakes at home along with water of course and I start my purred on Monday the 9

Calories intake 3 months out of Gastric Sleeve Surgery
melhach replied to tfarr's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My nut doesn't worry about the amount of calories she wants me to focus on protein and getting that in along with the greens! Just stay away from carbs and it won't matter how many calories -
Disappointed in myself
melhach replied to Brandalyn's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
That's a great loss don't be so hard on yourself -
Of course you will feel hungry sometimes we're still human lol I was sleeved 2/25 and I get like a little hunger twinge I drink my shakes and I feel great! We will still experience hunger though! We still have to eat! I can't wait to get into the solids I'm craving and chicken Caesar salad lol I'm a big fan of chicken breasts lol I don't have and never had a eating issue but i was overweight down 21 lbs since feb 11 when I started my liquid preop

Small bites, take your time and when it starts hurting it may be that your full

I'm 5 days post op and wondering what people are drinking! It's getting boring

Cheated every day of 7 day pre op diet
melhach replied to BeautifullyCreated1982's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
After surgery you won't tolerate any solids so if I were you for your health I would stick to your liquids! I'm 2 days post op and. Believe me I wouldn't be able to eat any amount of solids at this point I can barely tolerate the liquids :s -
What the H*LL happened to you?!
melhach replied to RJ'S/beginning's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I'm from bathurst post op 2 days with Dr semerjian, come home one day early no pain meds just Tylonal! -
Feb 25 can't wait so excited I'm not nervous at all I'm at 277 and I've been on a boost liquid diet for 7 days and another 7 to go yay
-
I'm so excited! It's been a super long wait and I wasn't nervous at all until now! I'm nervous about starving during the 2 weeks boost diet! We're allowed to eat some veggies so I'll be snacking on them during work hrs so I don't starve! Last night I was on my nerves and made a sandwich at 9:30 and I never eat at night :s

Anyone else dream about food? Preop liquid diet day 9
melhach replied to Christina44's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Haha when I have to cook for my kids I'm almost in a trance the food smells so good lol cheated once took a bite but that's it just a taste lol -
Preop diet is harder the second time around
melhach replied to Slimsoon1988's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm 5 days in also 2/25 is surgery for me I cheated a couple bites here and there no complete meal by any means I'm down 5 lbs since feb 11 so I must be doing something right! I find drinking a lot of water helps curb the hunger, I was not a Bing eater or in the fridge all day long before pre op diet but I love chicken and my kids to so when I'm making them chicken I take a couple pieces to take the edge off lol I was never a junk ester or soda drinker so I don't miss those things but just sitting down to eat some chicken breast with veggies is what gets to me I don't think a few bites will make a big difference to my liver size honestly because some surgeons don't require a pre op diet at all!
