I just got back to work after being out a month for surgery. I've been stuck at 220 for over a week and have even gained. Not sure how I eat 2 bites and I'm done. I'm eating mostly protein because that is all my pouch likes. I'll have a 30 calorie monster every once in a while for some caffeine. I don't understand this stall so soon. I walk but can't excersize a lot due to low energy. (which I will be talking to my surgeon about on Monday. ) Should I revert back to soup and protein shakes again? I'm getting water and I'm drinking 1 protein shake a day like my diet sheet says to at this stage. Any advice?

Thank you! I'll look it up!

Question about medication's post surgery.. Tomorrow is the big day yay! Just one question (so far). My regular med's can be crushed.. But how do you guys take your med's the 1st few days? I'm assuming you can't swallow well because of the "sip, sip,sip". And you're not eating applesauce to put it in.. What do your crush your med's in to take them? Thank you, Nervous Prep Girl!

I'm assuming if they want u to have SF Popsicles then they want you to have low sugar protein shakes. I like premiere and Atkins. Hope that helps

My pre-op was low carb.. What is yours? Just clear fluids?

You are so helpful! Thank you so much! 1 less thing to stress over!

I'm scheduled for bypass surgery on Sept. 29th. I'm on my low carb preop diet for the past 9 days and I'm doing really well! Thank you Crystal lite and in n out protein burgers w/no veggies to get me through the tuff times. I've lost 9 lbs so far????????this past week to make my liver look pretty. Getting my gallbladder out as well. I'm starting to get nervous. I hope they help with that as soon as I get changed into my surgery gown! You all are amazing to me and so brave!

Most Pamprin and Midol's have aspirin and acetaminophen in them. I'm gonna miss the heck outta them!

Thank you for the welcome everyone!

. Thank you! I will def. tell them to hit me up with something!

I'm from Tucson, Arizona. But I'm living in Austin, Texas!

No, Protein burgers are just patties of meat and cheese wrapped in lettuce. And thank you for the welcome????
