wallisj 0 Posted February 26, 2006 Since the pre and post op diets i have been losing weight ... i've only had the band for a month and last week moved onto mushy food.< /p> I have lost about 2lbs per week....this week i don't seem to have lost anything I know i don't get that full feeling as much anymore, Soups etc don't seem to satisfy much either ... I guess its because things have healed and settled down but i am a little disappointed. Work may also have been a factor, this last week i have been assigned to a very stressfull project and have been working 13hours straight all week including yesterday and today so walking has been out the window. Just wanted a bit of a moan ... you all know how it is i'm sure. Thanks Jamie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NJChick 3 Posted February 26, 2006 Hi Jamie, Yep, we all know the feeling Pretty soon you'll be ready to go for a fill and I'm sure that will help. I agree, it sucks Hang in there :scared: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kim_8 2 Posted February 26, 2006 Jamie - I noticed that when I switched to pureed food (real food though), I gained a little, then when I went to regular foods I gained a little more. Before long though I was back to losing. I thought maybe it was just an adjustment period for your body getting the shock of real food again?? Who knows?? But this did happen to me, too.

Dody 0 Posted February 26, 2006 Jack I would swear from your responses that you have a doctorate degree or a degree in psychology. How did one man get so smart? You give some great answers with some great compassion...both of which are strange for a man :scared: You also make a lot of sense, something most men don't do.

tpierce98664 0 Posted February 26, 2006 Jack, Thank You for your response! I was wondering what the heck was going on...I've stalled..I started at 225 on 2/2/06 (day of surgery)and today 2/26/06 202...I started with a bang but now I can't seem to break the 200 mark.I keep up-ing my Protein and I do not have over 400 cal.a day.I'm starting to get discouraged. What you have stated makes sense..Thank You!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dancer 0 Posted February 28, 2006 I am right there with you all! I am down 14 lbs. since my surgery on 2/9/06. But I haven't lost anything in a week. I am still on liquids. I go for post op today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
