ground turkey' date=' sun dried tomatoes, onions, garlic powder, italian seasonings, and a little tomatoe sauce but I probably could've have put more...I added rice to the others ones for my family and topped with cheese![/quote']

I'm 2 weeks post op and I'm on purée food. Had 4 oz of mashed potatoes with a boiled egg only egg white mashed into the potatoes' date=' a Protein shake, tried some tuna in Water with light mayo and couldn't eat it felt like if a bomb just dropped into my stomach, that keeps happening with everything new I try, is this normal?? Feel like I'm not loosing weight at all. Lost 22 pounds the first 10 days but nothing else after that. Please give me any advise I don't know what's happening. I don't eat that much and try to drink as much as I can but I don't know why the weight loss stopped, I'm not consuming not even 800 calories per day. What can be happening??[/quote']

We all have what we call stalls where the scale just won't move. It will pass. Just keep geeting your Protein in. The weight is gonna come off.

How much Protein are u eating? Because that ensures keeping muscles and losing fat..... Talk to ur nutritionist and dr.....?

It's likely just the shock and trauma of the surgery, calorie deprivation, etc. I'm on purée/mushies as well but I'm only allowed 1-2 Tablespoons per meal for the next 4 weeks!

It may help with stomach pains but if you don't get the calories and Protein you need you will be very fatigued.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
