My surgery was on 12/13 and its been hard to drink the 64 oz of water, the Vitamins, and the protein. I have to start early with the vitamins and be conscious about drinking water.

Hi everyone!

I was sleeved December 28th, as of this morning I've lost 25lbs post surgery. I lost 19lbs in the first 13 days, then stalled for about 5 days and just started dropping the last 3 days, about 5lbs!

I'll be honest I think it's my Water intake. I basically would only pee once a day, now I'm up to the point of getting up at night. I don't always hit my Protein, I probably get about 40mg in. I also moved my exercising back, took 2 days off, will probably take this weekend off too!

I remember when I did weight watchers, they didn't like you excercising for like the first 8 weeks or something, it was to allowed your body to adjust to your new way of eating. I think this is the same!

I think we get hung up on what we "should" be doing as people loosing weight instead of listening to our bodies. I'm guilty, I thought get out there kill it on the treadmill, work work work!!!!! What I should be doing is listening and feeling my body. Learning about this new way! My doctors has me eating every 3 hours but I found smaller meals every 2 works better! I think my body is telling me to slow down on the workouts, I'm still healing. I know it's telling drink more water, we can last longer without food than we can without water!!!

Slow down, learn your body, put all the fears away, it's not going to work for me, this stall is never gonna end, I can't do this right!!! Open your mind and body and listen, learn the new you!!!

      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.
