Lulubee 5 Posted August 21, 2013 I also am at a stall. A bit frustrating but I know it won't last forever. I am down 18 lbs since starting my preop. It is so exciting to see the scale goung down so it just adds to the frustration of the stall! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pangur 19 Posted August 21, 2013 Yesterday was the two week mark since surgery and I had a stall last week which ended as of Monday with another drop of a pound. I am down 28 pounds from the start of my pre-op liquid diet. I am feeling better each day and just looking forward to what each week will bring. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PGee 318 Posted August 21, 2013 I've stalled out at exactly 215.0 pounds. scale is not even wavering 2/10 of a pound...for some weird reason I find this amusing instead of annoying. I was stalled at that exact weight for 5 days....and I thought it was interesting rather than bothersome, too LOL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

yamgirl 8 Posted August 30, 2013 I'm also day 6 and will be in the secret group so we can keep in touch. I'm having minimal pain' date=' and am getting bored, no driving, no lifting, walking is the only allowed exercise. My biggest issue, and the one I will be addressing today is Constipation. I'm drinking more, committed to getting 3 Unjury Protein Shakes today. I've added Benefiber to the drinks, but no results yet. Maybe prune juice and a laxative. My post op plan is 1 full week of clears. Then 2 week full, then very soft. No solid food until week 4. I'm finding the unflavored Unjury tastes best in Gatorade. And even at that, it's an effort to hang in with it. Water, Popsicles, and chicken broth are better. Today I promised myself to get all my Protein and fluids, and I feel like I can keep that promise. That's progress. Dr sent me home with Toradol tabs that I am to take for pain every 6 hours. I feel it when I try to skip, and I'm not having side effects, so manage to take 3 or 4 per day. My pain is at the 2 larger incisions. Maybe it will be better when I'm not FOSdde04 I'm not too tempted by food yet. Nice to see I'm steadily loosing weight. Can't seem to skip a day checking the scale.< /p> All good, in the scheme of things![/quote'] Hi.. I'm an August 6er. Can u add me to ur group..
