[Shiner86 60]

THE scale MOVED!!!!!! After two weeks staying the same number (thought I had failed 3 weeks after surgery) and then this morning I was down 5lbs!! My surgeon told me I needed to eat more, so that's what I did and IT WORKED! I'm so happy! Just gonna keep on keepin on with my plan!

Mwestcons: thank you for ur response. I will try with milk, I think the cramps make me stop eating or drinking the shakes, I think I am putting in too much! I guess I really don't know if I am full or not? Hope things improve each day, going back to work for half day tomorrow.

Hi! I was sleeved on June 26 & have dropped 10lbs. I am just trying to focus on staying hydrated. Unfortunately I've not been able to keep it all in. Going to try Imodium AD tomorrow but afraid I'm to late. Any suggestions on how to keep my fluids in?

Hey I'm a RN and Imodium is a good idea prob need to replace the good bacteria in the gi track to slow you down try some activia yogurt

Just keep drinking !

I had the same problem and my doctor told me to take Imodium and add vanilla activia Greek yogurt.

Hi June 16th for me, just wanted to join the conversation. My surgery has gone really well, I feel almost normal. But my scale hasn't budged for the last week. I guess I need to change things up. I went onto pureed foods yesterday, and WOW! How full did I feel after having about 2 teaspoons of butternut squash! I had to really slow it down to get in half a cup.
