[zeebeegirl1 0]

Im 2 weeks in and not sure how much weight i should be losing during the first 4 weeks of liquid and puree foods can anyone shed some light

None. The first 4-6 weeks post surgery are to let your body heal from surgery, not losing weight.

Ditto what Mis73 said. And after that there is no set standard since everyone is different. Your journey will not look like most anyone elses.

Well that makes me feel better

I agree. Today marked 2 weeks for me, I've lost 12 pounds since my surgery date on May 10th, but I think it's just from all the liquids. How do your incisions look? I'm struggling to get enough Protein and fluids. How do you feel?

Yes everyone is different. I have only lost 7 pounds and my fiancé lost 17 and we had surgery together. Yes you are healing right now so don't worry if no pounds come off. You actually start when u are on solids again. Good luck

Im feeling good i found a protein/meal replacement that takes care of all i need in 2 shakes....my incisions have healed completely im a fast healer thank god ....my problem im noticing is getting all the fluids i need

[goldielocks<3 2]

What is the protein/meal replacement that you found, where at, and how much dinero? I am seriously struggling with the Bariatric Advantage Protein they provided - nasty. Do the ones you found taste alright?

I'll be 3 weeks tomorrow (5/25) and have lost 16#, but still focusing on liquids and mushy stuff. I have to really be careful that it is mushy and wet enough, because if it gets stuck, it isn't any fun when it comes back up.

I started mushy as well my surgery was the 11th. I had an egg tonight for dinner. Now I know one egg isn't enough Protein. So I ate the egg and then waited and had some Protein shake to get my Protein in. Was wondering if that was okay because I was thinking the Protein Shake would wash my eggs down. What are everybody thought on this? Thanks Tammy

Getting the Protein in and liquid is harder than I thought. I started drinking Isopure but its $5 a bottle. 40g of protein per bottle.I lost 7lbs so far but just started full liquid today and for some reason thought I was starving all day. I've been walking but the gas pains in my chest and shoulders are killing me. Is anybody else still having trouble with this.
