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.

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.

      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.
