Awww, I would ignore it too, it will come off, your body is probably going into the "keep everything " mode because of the few calories being taken in - maybe see if you can up those? seems funny, but I hear, that sometimes you have to eat more to loose... interesting concept :) hehe

Kudos to you.....you're doing great!!!

Denise, I had my surgery on May 9th - 11 days ago - as of yesterday I am down 58 pounds, and that includes the 37 pounds I lost on the 2 week pre op diet.

Congrats on your loss, that is awesome!

I completely agree! Having the surgery was the best thing I could have done with my life. The pains come off and on, but I say give it til your about 3 weeks and most of the pains or soreness should be gone, at least that's how it was for me :)

meggie, i gained 1.4lbs a couple days ago and it is gone now. don't know what is up with that?

i guess you body can only do the restricted calories for so long and then rebels!!

i really am not getting my Protein in as we have discussed before, but did eat more yesterday calorie wise. my dr. said just to do what i can for now!

I get to progress to pureed food next week when my nut calls, so i will have more options and will be able to do a better job! I am excited.

don't worry about the gain, it will go away. WE WILL WIN!!

Hugs,

Kelly :D

      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.
