So I’m in the beginning of week three and I have not lost any weight all week. I’m also constipated. I’m down a total of 28lbs since the preop liquid diet. I started at 249lbs and I’m now 221lbs. What are you taking for constipation? How long is the stall period?

What if I can't lose weight pre surgery?
Darcell76 replied to imaginegirl's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I’m not sure. Each surgeon may have their own requirements I just had my surgery a week ago on the 27th -

I was told to lose 10lbs but I didn’t lose it until my pre-op liquid diet. I actually lost 15lbs in two weeks -

Did anyone else have bad chest pains after surgery? I’m 3 days post op and it hasn’t went away. It comes and goes. They did an EKG before I left the hospital and said I was ok . -
I’ve tried the recliner and it’s so uncomfortable for me. I slept in my bed last night. How is your pain? I’m 2days post op and I’m still feeling it alot especially my right side. Sometimes I feel I have heart burn

Hello I’m 1 day post op. How are you able to find good sleeping positions? What’s your favorite sleeping position without pain

1 day post op. I was in so much pain yesterday none of the pain medication was working for me. I was able to drink without feeling nauseous. My breakfast tray consist of protein shake, milk, veggie broth and decaffeinate coffee. I should be getting discharged today even though I’m still having pain

I feel so defeated. I just found this forum because I really need support. I have 5 days left before my surgery 5/27/22 and I have slipped up. Actually, a couple slip ups. It’s crazy how some of us are on a strictly liquid diet and some are able to have lean meats and veggies. Someone please tell me they have had more than one slip up. These last 5 days I’m going to strictly follow this liquid diet.

I’m soooo hungry! I keep eating sugar free popsicles, broth, Gatorade zero. It’s torture cooking my family full course meals everyday. I’m excited for the phone call tomorrow to let me know what time I need to be at the hospital Friday. My doctor said I’m first in the list so I should be having my surgery around 7:30am. -

I’m definitely going to pack my heating pad. I see it’s a must have. Comfortable clothes to ride home in. I’m praying I’m only one day. My birthday is Monday I want to be home. -

Yay! We can go through this together. I see you’re in New York. I’m in Cleveland. How are you feeling? Did you have to do the 2wk clear liquids? Did you slip up? -

Hello everyone I’m new to the group. My surgery is in two days May 27th via gastric sleeve. I’m excited and definitely nervous. I see everyone is talking about packing their bag. I didn’t think I would need one considering I’m supposed to be out the next day. Can someone check in and let me know how you’re feeling and diet after surgery. -
