21 Lbs In 10 Days



Recommended Posts

I been so sick and nauseous today. Started wondering I am 10 days post op and have gone from 214 to 193 in 10days is that normal. I thought it would be less then that since I wasn't much heavier person when I started. Goal weight is only 150. I still regret doing this I can just down a bottle Water anymore and wonder will I have to be sipping for life. My dog eats and drinks more then I do right now.

I'm 8 days post op and I have lost 16lbs... Its normal. And you will be able to take down mouthfulls of Water soon, just not one after the other. I find it difficult to find people with my weightloss and recovery time.. Everyone is saying its cause I'm an 18 year old boy my body is just bouncing back... You will be fine in the long run. (:

I've lost 21lbs in 9 days and I'm 35 yrs old and as of today I feel great....but I didn't start drinking Water & feeling 1/2 human until day 6 when I went outside and forced myself to walk and get fresh air in my lungs...your body needs oxygen to assist in the healing process and I know it's cliche but the more I walked the better I felt.

Have you made it to the doc yet? Running a temp? Dehydration will definitely make you nauseous, and it's just a downward spiral. The sicker you are, the less you drink and then you just get sicker.... Vomiting makes it even worse.

      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.
