Hormones, where you are in your cycle, can wreak havoc on weight gain or loss. Also I would take a look at the sodium content of what you are eating. I can tell you right now you mention pepperoni and that's very high in sodium. If you are using a food journal like MyFitnessPal you can look at your daily sodium intake. Just my humble opinion. Keep plugging away. Sent from my SM-G900T using the BariatricPal App

I'm so frustrated. the day of my surgery I weighed in at 259 today I am 271 that's 12 pounds of Fluid and accumulated blood because I had bleeding post-op. Sent from my SM-G900T using the BariatricPal App -
For those of you that had an uneventful surgery, how long did the pain last? I had bleeding issues and ended up in the hospital for a week and still having pain. Sent from my SM-G900T using the BariatricPal App

Being an RN I was fully aware of the fact that the sleeve is major surgery. However part of me thought my procedure would be routine because I did everything perfectly. I didn't cheat once on my pre op instructions, etc. Yet here I sit, with major swelling due to a bled and having to have 2 transfusions. Thankfully the nausea and gas pains have subsided but the pain from the massive bruising is what hurts now. Now it's just wait and see. Thank you for reading my self pity whine.

As everyone else says on this page, start back at the beginning. If you aren't logging every bite, start. If you aren't eating enough Protein and drinking enough Water, start. I'if you are doing all of the haddock then mauvmaybe you need to switch up your workout routine. Try interval training or lift heavier weights, any thing to keep the body guessing.

I'd be willing to bet that a lot of it has to do with insurance. I do also realize that food addiction is a real thing however no one's going to have a seizure because they didn't get their Ben & Jerry's. Where is a hard-core alcoholic going through withdrawal could have life-threatening seizures. So the physical dependence on drugs and alcohol does make medical rehab a little more necessary. I too used to think that weight loss surgery was taking the easy way out. Now that I'm going through it I think it is anything but an easy way out. Sent from my SM-G900T using the BariatricPal App

Any nurses out there with advise
krae_98 replied to ladycathy's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm getting sleeved on the 1st I have 4 weeks off because I actually do have to boost patient up in bed, turn patients, lift patiets, and I work 12-hour days. My job doesn't have light-duty either. I know that certainly doesn't answer your question. But I do know someone who had a desk job and only took 3 days off work post op. Sent from my SM-G900T using the BariatricPal App -

krae_98 replied to tiers4me's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I don't know if I had a few a food funeral per se but I certainly went to New Orleans a couple of weeks before starting my pre-op diet and I did not restrict myself in any way. I gained about 5 pounds and now I've lost 13. So I have more than made up for it on my pre-op diet. Sent from my SM-G900T using the BariatricPal App -
There are tons of online resources and books on the subject. Furthermore you could consult any doctor or nutritionist on the matter. Sent from my SM-G900T using the BariatricPal App

If you eliminate Protein your body will start breaking down muscle to get it. I would talk to your doctor but in my opinion 200 calories per day is dangerously low. Sent from my SM-G900T using the BariatricPal App

I'm in. Though my surgery is scheduled for 6-1. Sent from my SM-G900T using the BariatricPal App -
Hi everyone I'm scheduled for my surgery June 1st and I'm terrified. I've lost large amount amounts of weight on my own before through militant exercise and Portion Control but my biggest hurdle has been and will always be the emotional eating. I know that the surgery is not going to help me with that so I'm reaching out for help from someone else. If anyone would be willing to help me I I'd greatly appreciate it.

I stopped the coffee cold turkey because I knew it was going to be that difficult and yes I'm suffering through the headaches. I'm trying to compensate by drinking much more Water. Sent from my SM-G900T using the BariatricPal App
