Is anyone back their original weight?? I know i shouldn't have weight yet but I did

And

Kinda worried I'm still over my starting weight by over 5 lbs---

And it's been 4 days---

And I'm not eating all my Protein yet-- it's wired it's like I don't realize part of my stomach is gone but at the same time I'm not really hungry and I'm scared to move stages yet

I was at the dr office with my husband earlier today and I jumped on the scale I was 3lbs lighter than what I weighed in Friday before surgery. I still feel bloated though.

Server not supposed to take Protein the 1st week ? Why? I was given beneprotein -- I've been having that water/ crystal light and Jello and Isopure and Popsicles oh yea and chicken broth ---

Kinda annoyed with the loss-- here's background

How long did it take you to lose Any weight?? I was 307 day of and then day after I was 317 cuz of all the gasses-- now I'm only at 312 --- so I know I have to lose the gas they put--- but since I'm not eating I think I should lose that extra gas Plus weight---- so I'm bugged that its only been 5 lbs list cuz get the extra gas concept -- but I should lose fat since I'm not eating to--- any thoughts/ advise-

Did u gain lots of Water or gas weight??

Hi. I'm doing better today. It was a rough week for me. I've been struggling with really bad back pain and I've never had back pain prior to surgery. And also I had to wear a breathing monitor bc of the pain Med I was on in the hospital. Its just like the oxygen tube that goes in your nose but this also has a flap that covers a bit of your mouth. Not sure if anyone else had this. Well I ended up being allergic to it or something Bc my upper lip swelled to twice It's size and blistered. Ugh. It's feeling much better today but I've just been dealing with pain this week. Telling myself everyday that tomorrow will be better.. today is the first day I've really believed it tho.. Lol.

Thanks for checking in on me! :)

      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.
