Justine - 14 lbs this is great!!!! I only lost 5lb per week. after surgery.

Thanks but are you only on clear? My doc has me on clear which is why this is happening. I take it lightly and wonder when I do get to eat if I will gain a little?

5 pounds is also great in one week!

My surgery was on the 13th and before I was released from the hospital the dr. graduated me to full liquids which is the creamy Soups, cottage cheese, yogurt, shakes.... I have lost 10 lbs. since the day of surgery. OMG!! I can't believe it.

Y'all pray for me, I don't seem to be doing as good as all of you guys... My side is swollen & I don't feel I've lost any weight since last Wed.. I can't seem to get many liquids down - today in try'n to get in 2 Protein Shakes & more water... You all are losing so much weight & I don't think I am... Maybe b/c my stomach is swollen & irritated & inflamed...

I am sorry you aren't feeling good. Take it easy. If you haven't lost any weight now it is probably Water retention, out bodies react differently. I am sure you will start losing according to your body. Hang in there. Hope you can have your Protein today. Prayers going your way.

Oh honey- that was me a couple days ago and I was dehydrated which is a major risk to surgery. I would 1) call doc and 2) stay on Clear Liquids (if u can add unflavored Protein to your drinks). Please call you doc. I was re admitted overnight for that

[newgrandmother 725]

ready you will be fine we have to remember its only been a week. try and get the protien in though. hang in there we are here for you also. you are not alone
