Recommended Posts

I did surgery at 20. 10 days gone but my weight is not moved(240lbs). I eat Protein more than 80 grams and carb less then 100g. Please help.

How much sugar are you in taking as well as fat?? Also are you walking?

Also some protein is horrible for you, checks sugars and carbs maybe lower your carbs

What makes you feel like you are doing something wrong? Your body just had major surgery and you body must heal. Sometimes your body throws a little temper tantrum and hold onto everything you put in your mouth. Like all tantrums they will pass. Just stick to what YOUR doc proscribes.

Thank you for advise. Yes. I think my body tantrums me. Need more rest and make my mind calm. Thanks!

I gained weight right after surgery and then about 15 days out, weight started pouring off...5 weeks post surgery I'm 40 lbs down from highest weight with a total weight loss of 48 lbs. Hang in there-- it will come off. My surgeon told me not to focus on weight loss during the first few months, but rather focus on setting up my routine and taking my Vitamins and getting my walk up to 2 miles a day.

      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.
