Yes it has slowed down for me too. I haven't lost any weight in a week. But my monthly is due this week also and we do bloat and hold Water around that time. I haven't started excerising and I was told it's going to take another 6weeks for me to heal. That means slower weight loss. I am upset with all my complications and how long it will take me to heal. Baby steps and knowing I will succeed eventually. Keep your head up :)

Wen was ur surgery. I had complications n I only got to start exercising last week. And it has to be only water arobics because of my back n knees. I'm upset because my dr. called today n yelled at me, because my nutrition showed him Wat I've been eating, which I thought wasn't bad. But he sure did. So i've been shook up all day. So I just ate 600cal. Today. :(

My 1st surgery was on August 27th, 2nd was on 30th and my 3rd surgery was on 1st of September. This is why my healing is longer. As far as nutrition goes, I been only eating greek yogurt, applesauce, sugar free ices water and tea. Everything else makes me nauseous! Including those Protein Shakes. So I always get yelled at by nutritionist and doctor :/

He said my portions was to big. And he said ur eating a potatoe!!! And he'd said watermelon n cantaloupe is nothing but sugar!! I can't believe ur eating like this after all u been thru!!! He said u should be eating a 1/2c of food at each meal!!

He was just mean!! Worried me all day n night until I fell asleep this morning at 4:30. I don't tolerate that to well. Its made me so nervous. One off the girls on here gave me a website that's wonderful where she had her surgery. It helped me see better how to eat. Its. Highland hospital Rochester ny. That goes to their website then to the left of the page says something about bariatric surgery. go to that the it says meals. U can print them out. It looked very helpful. Good luck. Let me no Wat three dr. said.

Sorry about the way ur dr. Talked to you. Some of them need to go to school to learn how to talk to patients. I have been eating potatoes too. They seem to sit well in my stomach and no too much else does. I'm not a. Doctor but I doubt ur eating enough to get so excited about it. I hope u feel better, sometimes it's better to eat a little that's not so good for u than eating nothing. At least that's how I feel.

Thanks for sharing. I am super nervous about going back to work Friday but I have to. No one thinks I'm ready with all the frothing I do and neither do I. I still can't even stay up all day. Hopefully it will get better.

I'm also scared of what my dr/nutritionist will say next week. I've been getting ~10g Protein per day when my goal is 60. At least I'm staying hydrated.

I absolutely cannot drink any more shakes, they make me sick even thinking about it.

What I have been eating is mostly good like chicken, hard boiled egg. I've had some mashed banana with Peanut Butter.

I have been walking approx 4000 steps every day.

Yesterday I was sick twice, I don't know if its part of not eating, coming down with something or my period coming on.

      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.
