Any Ideas? Been Sick!



Recommended Posts

So I was sleeved may 15th and went from 127 kg to 115kg. The. Stopped dead! Then last week June 8th I got sick and been in the hospital ever since. Until June 15 I could eat anythig without being sick but managed to get Water down, and have been on iv. I mixed my water with high proton boost so I was getting proten I was also every second glass mixing water with beneprotein powder unflavored 25 cal n 6 grams of proten. Then yesterday I was able to eat chicken broth, amd magic cup! Great thing that is! Magic cup has Vitamins and cancer fighting agents, and more plus it has 9g of proten, gluten free. All this stuff was giving to me by the dr. However weight myself and long behold I gained weight back! Now what?

My fear is am ever going to lost this weight! Still in hospital with iv and potasuom

I'm sorry to hear about the problems you are having. If you are on an IV then your weight gain is probably related to Fluid retention. At this point you should just focus on getting better and don't worry about what the number on the scale says.

Thanks it seems so hard not to think about weight loss regardless how we feel, I am still in here and gained weight, but I got sleeved a month ago may 15th and even with the weight gain I've still lost 9kg.

Weight gain on reduced calorie intake (defecit) is almost always fluids. If you went from being sick, to now being well-hydrated, any weight gain will be a reflection of rehydration.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
