Congrats. Gosh I go tomorrow for my 2nd po and it appears that I've only lost 13 lbs since my pre op on 6/2. I'm so happy for you but what an I doing wrong?

Everyone loses different girl dont get discouraged!!! I am staying away from as much carbs as I can. All the full liquid diet is, is mostly carbs!!! Doin yogurt, Soup blended (no noodkes in it), and Jello. Boring but im just tryin think about how in 3 wks I can eat solids !

Some people retain fluids badly after surgery from the IVs, meandlittledog. I only lost 11 pounds in first 10 days and weighed 366. Very disappointed but I was retaining Water badly and took a while to get rid of it no matter what I drank or ate. Don't feel bad. It will come off.

That's great Tamz! Such an incentive isn't it?

I am with you. I had my sugery on June 5th and have only lost 4 lbs. I did lose 30 lbs with my pre-op diet, but I feel like the surgery isn't working and I sure am not eating much these days.

So funny that we were both sleeved on the same day, and ironic that I am eating refried Beans for dinner as we speak! I like your enchilada sauce idea too :)

I also didnt think of adding shredded cheese! Gotta love this support group :)

PS I hope I dont stall .. I lost 22lbs since the surgery, but just guessing that the mushies may set me back somewhat

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
