i am 2 weeks post op and down 23lbs. i was soooooo scared to do the surgery but omg i could have never done this by myself. i m on my way!
-
I am two weeks out and was on full fluids these past 2 weeks...besides the fact that I hate Protein shakes, i have been doing well. I managed my Water etc but omg, every time a family member eats or I smell food...i go into a depression. I have had 3 meltdowns in the past week. I just cannot get past the feeling that I need to eat! I am not hungry at all. Also the fact that I cannot swim or dance (my two other favorite pleasures) as well as visiting friends (because usually that requires coffee or food), I feel so isolated and stressed. Am i alone?

i was told 6 weeks, i have a pool, i put waterproof bandages on and duct tape over that and went for a short dip yesterday... my incisions seem good but felt guilty. will wait another week

I never could tolerate Protein shakes and new i would have a problem...bought the premere at costco and drank one and said hell no and returned the case. i've tried so many and i hate them all! i have now resorted to slim fast with 1.5 cups of milk and 2 tbsp greek yogurt to dull the sweetness. the total protein comes in at just over 30 grams. 1 a day is all i can handle. i have started eating low fat ricotta cheese with a tiny drop of tomato sauce, it has saved my life! it actually makes me happy to have 2 tbsp of that and i eat it lunch and dinner.

How to get enough protein 3wk out without protein powder
Marie Car replied to Beachsprite's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
im 2 weeks out and have a complete disgust for Protein drinks if i have to drink another, i will throw it at someone. Tried all of them but now i manage one slim fast scoop with 1.5 cups milk and two tbsp of greek yogurt. This brings the protein to somewhere around 30 grams. Since i could not get my Protein Drink in and i hate cottage cheese, i resorted to low fat ricotta cheese, 2tbsp with salt and a tiny drop of tomato sauce on. i tolerate it well and i have managed to up my protein, not to mention it feels like i ate something worth while! Down 23 and looking forward to eating real protein. -
How many days post op did you notice weight loss?
Marie Car replied to futureskinnygurl's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
my advice is not to look at the scale until 2 weeks post op. you are full of fluids and swelling the first week. i am now 2 weeks post op and down 23 lbs. -
