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 ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roseib 13 Posted June 23, 2011 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.

soccermom2011 0 Posted June 23, 2011 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 Right now im eating ff refried Beans with enchilada sauce to lose some thickness, some ff shredded cheese and a little light sour cream!!!
