Well I'm two weeks out today and my Monday official weigh in came in at a total of 15 pounds down all post op. I'm feeling pretty good. I've had the craziest I guess gas that gurgles up my stomach and into my throat. It only does this at night when I'm on the bed. Kinda like a burp but no belching sound. My fiancé hears it and jumps out of bed like are you ok?! It feels so weird. Other than that I'm doing good. Getting hungry but I've Bern shutting it up with Water.

Ohhh speaking of hunger. I made an awesome dinner for me and the rest of you on puréed foods. It's ricotta cheese mixed with Parmesan cheese and an egg. Spread it in a dish and top with your favorite spaghetti sauce and top with mozzarella cheese! Bake on 450 for 20-25. It is awesome!! Tastes just like lasagna ESP the melted cheese it gives it a noodle texture lol. I got this from a blog somewhere and I apologize bc I don't remember the link.

Anyway just wanted to share what my two weeks out is like and a yummy lasagna like puréed recipe!! Have a great week!

Sounds like you're doing great!

I am one week post-op, down 16 lbs (7 post op) and not too hungry. Just eating Soups and Protein Shakes mostly.

I am super tired these days. I assume it is anesthesia and lack of calories. See the doctor tomorrow for one week follow up :)

Well I am 2 weeks out today too. And I had the same thing for dinner. You probably got it from www.theworldaccordingtoeggface.com. That's where I got it. Unfortunately when taking it out of my oven I spilled half of it all over my oven. Looks like I am going to learn how to clean my oven tomorrow....lol. Today was my first day of mushies. It felt good to actually eat something. I lost like 9 lbs the first week and the second I went up .5 lbs it is bumming me. I am hoping this week the scale will move again

Mattie- I felt that same way! It is just lack of food and anesthesia wearing off still. Good luck at your appointment tomorrow. Mine lasted a total of three minutes lol

Susan- you have got to try it! It's heaven in your mouth!

Jess- sorry to lol but that was my fear getting it out of the oven haha! Fortunately I wasn't my usual clutz self and didn't spill it. Yes that us the website! Have you seen her ice creams and shakes? Omg it's crazy! Don't get discouraged about the scale. I've read that when we reintroduce actual food to our bodies that we will stall and possibly gain. Just drink that water! I am going to start walking tomorrow but u have to do it immediately after work or it gets dark soon. I'm ready for spring!!

Amber - my surgeon said that a side effect of being tubby is "accident prone" LMBO, which I am.

So, I guess the moral of the story is.....we are going to get less clutzy!!! You think it's possible? I'm having my doubts personally....... :)

Haha that's interesting! I have my doubts too! I think I would be accident prone at 280 or 150 lol. My mom always tells people "well her name isn't graceful" lol

Yeah, I am very clutzy sometimes. I was trying to take it out with one hand (only ever got one pot holder, guess I need to get a second one). I agree with Amber, I think I still will be clutzy at 150 too...LOL. Though Mattie, it would be great if accidents decreased with my weight.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
