October 2022 surgery support
katvondemon replied to KimA-GA's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I just finally broke my stall this week. Mine started week 2 and lasted 19 days. I don’t track overall calories but I started tracking protein and fluids. Turns out I wasn’t getting as much as I thought I was. I aim for 64 ounces of fluids (most of which is water) and 60 grams of protein. I also started moving more. My doctor wants me to work up to 150 minutes of movement a week. For now I’m just walking 20-30 minutes a day. Eventually I’ll add in strength training. I also switched to weighing in weekly so it was less of a focus for me. Finally this Monday the scale dropped from 192 to 189 (the last couple of weeks it kept shifting between 192-191) so I’m hoping the stall has passed. It’s hard not to stress about a number but I have also been noticing other changes. My clothes fit better and my confidence is going up. So I try to focus more on that then the number. Every doctor is different. I’m allowed 3 meals and 2 high protein snacks a day. Usually I don’t even eat all that. But perhaps reconsider what you’re snacking on at night. If it’s not nutritious pick a different snack. Or spend that time moving instead of snacking. This surgery is all about creating better habits. I was a terrible bored snacker and would binge eat constantly. I would eat something while already thinking about what I was going to have next. I work night shift so when I’m home I’m still up late and my family is asleep so there would be no witnesses to my episodes. Now I try and fill the time with something else. I walk on my treadmill, play video games, read a book, etc. It helps take my mind off wanting to snack because I recognize that I’m not hungry, I’m bored. Good luck. It will break soon I promise. In the meantime focus on what you can control. -
first of all, pouch resets are discouraged by most dietitians. It just puts you back into "diet mentality". Just go back to basics - protein first, then non-starchy vegetables, and then, if you're still hungry, a small serving of fruit or complex carbs. And log everything you eat so you know how much and when you're eating. secondly, the vast majority of us have a rebound weight gain of 10-20 lbs after we hit our lowest weight. It's just your body settling in to a weight it's comfortable at. I used to "attend" Unjury's Zoom support groups occasionally, which often feature speakers. There was a really interesting dietitian on once who said at her clinic, they don't even consider it a regain unless the person has gained more than 15% of their lowest weight (so for you, that's 25.5 lbs). I regained about 20 lbs in year 3 (it usually occurs in year 2 or 3, after you hit your lowest weight). It really bothered me for a long time, but clearly this is where my body wants to be. I could always go lower by cutting my calories, but then, I've been sitting at this weight for quite awhile, so it evidently is not as important to me as I think it is, otherwise i'd be doing exactly that (cutting calories). I know it'd be a struggle trying to get down to my lowest weight again and staying there, because my body seems to be comfortable where it is. Do-able, but it would be a lot of work and then a challenge to stay there. I've kind of given up the ghost at this point. if after tracking you find you're taking in too many calories and are doing too much eating while you're not really hungry, then do what you need to to get back on track (the suggestions people had of going back to your clinic for support - therapy and/or dietitian is a good one). But if that's not really the case, if this is just the normal rebound that most of us experience, then know it's just that...normal - and also, expected.

Welcome, RDC. What procedure(s) did you undergo? What was your starting weight, lowest weight, and thus, what percentage are you talking about when you say you gained back 20 pounds? If you lost 200 and regained 10%, it is a very different scenario from losing a total of 25 and regaining 20. Most people on this board are extremely knowledgeable and willing to help, but you have to give the basic information for their responses to be helpful.

stalls are common. Just keep following your program. If more than a month or six weeks go by with no weight loss, you can always lose more by cutting calories - if you're willing to do that. You and your body may or may not be comfortable eating less than 1000 calories a day, and that's fine. weight loss does slow down a lot the closer you get to a normal BMI. I'm trying to lose 10 lbs now, but it's REALLY hard. But then, there are only so many calories I can cut (about 200 is all). When I weighed over 300 lbs, I could cut 1000 calories a day and lose weight pretty quickly. Right now, it takes about 1600 calories for me to maintain my current weight. If I cut 1000 calories NOW, I'd only be eating 600 calories/day. That is not sustainable. Even cutting 200 cal/day is challenging, but at least it's do-able. But that also means that my weight loss is going to be very slow....only 2-3 lbs a month. as far as losing too much weight, you can always increase your calories a bit to stop the loss. So unless there's some medical problem that's causing the weight loss, you have control over whether you stop the loss or keep losing.

Sleeve to mini bypass, scheduled for Nov 3rd looking for others
Isabel1246 replied to Isabel1246's topic in Mini Gastric Bypass Surgery Forum
So, update as this Thursday is 1-month post-op. As it turns out I was prepared for the sleeve surgery but mine was very different. I know that everyone's experience is different, here is mine. I woke up in quite a bit of pain and was a little surprised because a lot of people say their MGB didn't hurt but mine did. I got my walking in and slept, handled the sips of water at first and then the jello okay. I couldn't finish a whole cup but still good. Recovery was okay for the most part, but I didn't take it easy as I got home and was cooking dinner every day for 10 days straight. At exactly 10 days post op I began to feel a bad stitch of pain on my left side behind where the drain had been. At this point my wounds are closing well. I notice that it hurt if I laid on my back and tried to bend at all to my left but also if I turned to the right it felt like a rock was on my side. Long story short I took to Facebook and learned that it was common, and people referred to it as the b***h stitch, so I ignored it. The pain got so bad that I just couldn't, I went to see my doctor and turns out it's an infection. 🤦♀️ So he put me on a strong antibiotic and now here I am, nearing my 1 month post op and still feeling pain but it is definitely more manageable. Everyday is better and better. I have a lot of restriction and am just learning my body's was of saying enough. My HW 286, SW 274, CW 250 I am very optimistic that this was the way to go but complications happen unfortunately. -
Questions about MMJ use.
pintsizedmallrat replied to beaglegirl2's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It CAN make you hungry--I find that it tends to affect me in spells, I'll get the munchies with a vengeance for a week or so then it won't feel like it affects me at all (could be different strains, I live in a state where the "real stuff" is illegal so it's Delta 8, Delta 10, HHC, etc...Delta 10 seems like it gives me the munchies the worst so I avoid it. HHC seems like it's the least "munchie-genic"...since you live in a state where you're going to a real dispensary I would ask advice about what might help your symptoms and give you the least munchies.) I use it recreationally and for sleep...I've taken pretty much every prescription sleep aid out there and MJ has WAY less side effects and doesn't make me feel like I got hit by a truck when I wake up. -
3 months post op, lab shows elevated leucocytosis (white blood cells)
KimA-GA replied to Hazel40's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
there are many reasons for the elevation.. if it’s only 10 (mine is normally 13-15) you could have had a small infection or your body prevented you from getting sick.. just watch for trend in your overall bloodwork -
Night time and my fat brain wants to eat.
Leo segovia replied to Leo segovia's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yes . It is harder then I thought it would be to change that habit of late night eating. So I now have resolved myself to saving about 200 calories to my late night snacking. I have also returned to making sugar free jello and having that as a snack or having a banana . I have also reduced my portions to 250- 300 g . It was eating puree just so I could eat larger portions. While also not pureeing my foods anymore. It is helping and starting to embrace and modify my old habit. Work with it and not let it become my burdin. Also this week I am now back to loosing weight again. I'm entering my 10 week post op. Pre op 2 week before 265bls Surgery day 250 lbs Current weight 225 lbs That's 40 lbs. In 21/2 months and I am happy and healthier and looking forward to continue on my journey to better health and weight loss . -

November 2022 surgery support!
monmarie replied to feisty one's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Hey girl! Stay hydrated! Stay on top of your fluids, Anxiety could’ve boosted that heart rate pretty quickly. It’s a life long change. Don’t beat yourself up, stay focused and aim for the prize of better health. I’m 4 days post op of bypass. I initially felt terrrrible but I’m keeping up on fluids and walking. I came home 10 lbs heavier from the gas and fluids too, this morning I’m down again to my preop. Do your best and focus. Mind over matter. You got this. Take your time and let your body adjust, we made some big changes! -
Looking for folks to follow and build with who are o a similar surgery timeline. I’m getting the sleeve on December 5. Let me know if you’d scheduled similarly and would like to share experiences and support here. Please feel free to introduce yourself in the comments. I’ve included my own intro below. ABOUT ME: I’m Sarah, a 40yo woman from nyc. I have a senior level professional job as a consultant and work from home most days of the week. I hate failing and I think that’s why weight has been such a hindrance for me, it’s feels like a personal failure. Im pretty active and close my Apple Watch rings most days. I love to swim and do swim laps 30-60 minutes/day - 4-5/days a week. Outside of swimming I love to read, wander the hiking trails in Central Park, volunteer for campaigns and causes I care about, writing, and travel anywhere are everywhere in spite of dreaded airline seats :) My WLS decision: I’ve been overweight most of my life but for a few years after a prior 120lb weight loss associated with disordered eating about 10 years ago. Needless to say most of that weight was gained back in recovery and then some yo-yoing down 50 and up 60 every other year to follow. I imagine many of you can relate to this story. Though I’ve thought about wls surgery for sometime my blood panels and other levels were still in healthy range only my weight was an outlier. But then COVID came and especially terrified me - I was scared if I caught it I would be at risk to lose my life. I made efforts on my own to lose weight and like past attempts I shed 50lbs and was really good for 6 months but then something happens at work and I prioritize that above myself and before I know it I’ve gains it back. This last year I found myself of the gain side of the yo-yo and for the first time being afraid to sit in some chairs, after break a plastic deck chair. I noticed I was keeping myself in bc I was disgusted with myself, holding myself back from dating, from living, and carrying myself with little confidence, with little to look forward to. The tipping point: I went to my nieces dance recital and could barely squeeze into the auditorium seat. I needed to make a permanent change. Two months later I had my first consult for surgery and here I am ready Dec 5 surgery.

Nerves ahead of Dec 5th surgery
smc124 replied to smc124's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I think therapy will definitely be an important supportive service I should layer on after surgery. Similarly I lost a lot of weight about 10 years ago and my goal is to be about 15 lbs less than that, I was single then as I am now and I think that my experiences then was where some of this is stemming from. -

3 months post op, lab shows elevated leucocytosis (white blood cells)
SleeveToBypass2023 replied to Hazel40's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was diagnosed with leukocytosis about 10 years ago. It just is what it is. As long as everything is ok, I wouldn't worry too much. One of my MS meds actually lowers WBC, so now I'm almost in the normal range lol -
it's probably the IV fluid. It's basically salt water, which some people retain for a few days. I've heard of people "gaining" up to 10 lbs while in the hospital! Give it a few more days - should be all out of your system by then.

I had the sleeve surgery yesterday. I feel great. The esophagus spasms have been the worst part. Prior to surgery I had lost 36 pounds, 10 inches and 4% body fat. Y’all keep going. It will be worth it! -

You Are My Sunshine replied to carrielee's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I started pondering this surgery about 10 years ago. There were many things that factored into when I eventually was able to have it and make it to the other side. Nothing wrong with taking your time. It's understandable that you would have second-thoughts. That's normal. Maybe you could pinpoint some of the reasons your hesitant? It sounds like you have health reasons that would indicate a change... but what are the concerns that run through your head? -
You've still lost 40 pounds, which is a lot. I did feel a bit bad, reading all the posts here from people who have lost 40+ and 50+ pounds, when I've only lost 36. Still, I've never lost more than 10-15 pounds in the last ten years or more, and always ended up gaining them back. Normally, I'd lose the 10 pounds or so in a few weeks, then stall no matter what I did, and then regain. Sometimes slowly, sometimes more quickly. Sometimes I'd manage to keep 10 pounds off for a while, but it always ended the same way. So, in that context, 36 is not too shabby. I hope I too will get to the 40+ pounds lost soon, maybe even this year.

Met with the surgeon for the final time prior to surgery on Dec 5th. I start liquid diet 10 days prior. SO I will be enjoying a small slice of pecan pie in Thursday. The liquid side consists of a combination of Soups (tomato & cream of types) thinned. broth , Protein Shakes, assorted sugar free jellos (like the green), popsicles, pudding and yogurts and such. The only admonishment is Clear Liquids the day before surgery. It will be the same diet after surgery until advised to proceed to the next step. Obviously this is my teams directions, Your team will probably have their own requirements. Best bet is to follow them. After all, that's why we're paying them the big bucks. Well wishes and prayers to all.

Well, I'm back! I have a new surgery date of 01/06/2023! My baby boy is amazing though! 14 months old now and perfect in every way so things happen for a reason!

The way I found my "limit" was to start with 1 sip from a 1 ounce cup every 15 minutes. See how your body tolerates it. If it tolerates it well, then move to 1 sip every 14 minutes, then 13, and so on and so forth. It is a process but you will find your limit within a day or two. One of the one ounce cups should probably take you 2-3 sips to get through, although everyone is different so test that out. If you feel a new pain after your sip, stop and let it fully go away before taking another sip. I think these steps should help anyone with their water intake. Using those steps I was able to find my limit, then I would gradually increase it to my comfort level. I'm just about 3 weeks post op and I'm able to drink about 10-12 ounces an hour or so. It's really important you listen to your body though. The good thing is, as of week 4 your stomach should be healed up and your chance of it bursting/popping is significantly reduced at this point.
