Not Losing Since Last Fill



Recommended Posts

It has been 2 weeks since my last fill and I do feel restriction but I'm not losing, actually gained a half lb this week. I go back to surgeon in 2 weeks. I lost almost 10 lbs last month so I really don't know what is going on. Eating the same if anything a little less because I can't eat as much as I did last month before this fill. Guess it will all work out.

Its just a plateau... I had one for 3 weeks ...Try upping your Water intake. Sometimes that sparks a movement... Or do something physical like cutting grass if you dont have snow on the ground....

thanks everyone, I guess it is a plateau, but that doesn't mean I like it! lol. Never have stalled like this yet until now and I'm only 5 months post op. I will increase my Water, can't mow, we've already had hard freezes here in Western Ky and grass isn't growing and I'm awaiting on the snow...heehee however today is 60 outside on that note I think I will take the pup for a walk around the block. I have a Dachshund and she is only 19 mos old and loves to get out so it would do us both good to walk. I go back to the Dr on the 6th.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
