krisrny

Hey there, I had RNY on 11/21/16, since then I have only lost 5 pounds!! It's so discouraging, I know it didn't come on over night and I won't lose it overnight but that seems like so little. I follow my dietary restrictions from the doctor, I'm currently on puréed phase. I get all my 64oz of Water in.. I get at least 50grams of Protein in daily. I do the recommended exercise. Which is currently 30 minutes of brisk walking daily. I just don't know why it's not coming off. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm 5 weeks out as of tomorrow but as soon as I got out of the hospital I could easily drink all liquids without much restriction at all. I asked my doctor about it and all he said was I'm one of the lucky ones lol so I definitely have counted it as a blessing during the journey. I was so worried about liquids after surgery as I LOVE Water but I have had no problems at all with drinking since the first couple days after surgery Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm thinking of trying patch MD multivitamin Patches instead of the Flinstones because it's so hard to take them Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Yes! My doctor recommended 2 chewable Flinstones for Multivitamin and the Iron taste makes me either vomit or want to vomit Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Definitely fluids, I'm at the same point as you, had surgery 11-21 and no lotion works on mine either. But I got more Water in and saw improvements a few days later. Sorry you're having this issue. Best wishes. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Really great! It's difficult at first to hit Protein and liquid intake but once you're on a schedule it's not so bad! Love it so far! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
