Hello all, I am a Newbie. Before my surgery i weighed 267 and surgery was May 12 and i currently weigh 247 and for 1 1/2 weeks ,I have not lost anything. I have maintained 247-246.6 Is this normal?, I have read about the stretching of the pouch, and not chewing your food as fast and drinking Water at the same time. And since i have been reading so much about it ,im scared i will stretch my pouch. Now when i was loosing a pound a day i was not really eating, just like 3 table spoons of Jello and 3 sips of broth if that and water. I have now incorporated cottage cheese, hummus here and there and what ever i cook like maybe 4 Table spoons of.. Not sure if i need to stick with just Protein for the whole month or what. Im not so quite sure to know when im getting full. I know when i eat and i swallow at time it hurts, i barf sometime water or soy milk if its like 20 mins after i eat. Im dreading to call the Dr. But i think i should. Did anyone else have a stand still, i do exercise like run up the bleachers. Any help will be appreciated,only those that have had the surgery.

Dont feel like that. I lost 21 pounds in 2 weeks 3days before surgery i lost 5pounds than after surgery till may 25 ,after that i lost nothing...not 1 pound..thou im going to be honest im not gaining and 21 pounds is a lot. I guess my body is trying to catch up to my weightloss. I do eat or shall i say pick like a bird here and there not fatty or fried just like eggs, hummus, veggie chips, cottage cheese ,tuna with mayonnaise and corn in it. Really what i eat.

Question when you vomit, why doesnt it come up. Like you have that feeling of wanting to vomit in your tummy ,but nothing comes up no matter how hard you try,why is that?anyone experienced this Sent from my SM-G925P using the BariatricPal App

Sorry you are going through this .i havent had that experience as i go everyday its just watery stool..uggh like today all day non stop and i havent ate anything yet.. you have to drink more Water...also maybe infused water with mint and cucumbers. Best of luck. Im at a stall ugggh i lost 21 pounds as of may 12,well last 2 week nothing! Sent from my SM-G925P using the BariatricPal App

Well the first day of surgery was bad for me, i made myself walk i was given Jello and broth.. i had to take that first week. In 2 weeks i did loose 21 pounds.my surgery was may 12, i have lost nothing since the 21 pounds. But being honest not sure if im eating enough or what.. wish i had a picture of what my pouch looked like, that way i know how far to eat. I have eaten things i wasnt suppose to..and it just kept me at the same weight. I can drink Water when i eat not good!, its a bad habit for me that i need to change. So starting today and all next week im going to stick with Protein and thats it. 3xs a day with 16oz of water. And see if i break that plateu of stalling i know i dont get more than 800 calories but i dont like this stalling ,but everyone says embrace it. Im not gaining any weight im just at a still. Also i love Peanut Butter also, and i did take a baby spoon and had a little bite 1st week after surgery. Just didnt taste like skippy smooth lol I know exciting that we can loose so much weight, but it isnt to exciting once reality sets in that we can no longer eat what everyone else eats or whats on a menu, or at a ristorante ... Hang in there..we arent robots and we arent programmed we are human..just get back up for everytime you feel like you have fallen.,I cant wait to see myself 4 months from now..im still with in the month..i go back to work june 13 Best of luck Sent from my SM-G925P using the BariatricPal App
