Frustrated! My period started a week after surgery so I stalled for that week, and I'm stalled this week too. I'm doing everything the doctor said to do in my plan, but in the last 2 weeks I've not lost a pound. I'm starting to question why I'm even bothering. I know in the long run it will work, I'm just beyond frustrated right now. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm a K teacher and am going back after 3 weeks. I took an extra week at the front of Christmas break. My surgeon was ok with my time frame. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Puréed Foods Making me CRAZY!
wjessi1 replied to nbflat2's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
A friend who'd had the sleeve gave me my recipe: chicken breast, light mayo, pickle juice (no pickles), and a little spicy mustard. Tastes divine! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
I'm in purée, but not allowed eggs. I'm looking forward to them, but totally enjoying chicken salad, tuna salad, and shrimp salad. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Pain Meds - How Long Did You Take?
wjessi1 replied to SeattleSleever's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I stopped mine in the hospital around 24 hours after surgery. Never did fill the prescription. Tylenol liquid worked fine the one or two times I felt pain at home. That said others may need it as we are all different as is our recovery. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
That was one of the few things I was allowed on full liquids, unsweetened with 1 T of Protein powder added. I didn't eat it much though, my taste for it changed. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Want to give up on protein
wjessi1 replied to ML573663's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
What type of soup did you make? I'm struggling with the next few days of full liquids. For protein- what brand unflavored are you using? I find that unjury brand mixes in extremely well with my Greek yogurt. It is so so with my broth, but if I whisk it it's mostly dissolved. The Protein is what is helping your body heal so you do need it. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
I am exactly with you. Had my sleeve on 12/13 too. I lost 11 the first week and have been doing everything exactly the same and only lost .8 so far this week. It'll keep coming, our bodies are changing and have been through a tough process. I know my particular issue is just how my body cycles each month. Doesn't make it any less frustrating!
