I was pretty much back to pre surgery weight at my 1 week post op appointment too. I haven't weighed in a few days, since I'm coming up on the dreaded 3 week stall I have vowed to only weight once a week, I'm doing that on Thursday Morn.

because of the issues I've been having with trying to get the Protein in and trying to get the food and then I was back to my presurgery wait like four days ago when I was three days out. Because I found a scale while I was in the hospital, when I weighed myself before my surgery I was 278 the day after my surgery I was back to 289 now away today I'm at 275.

I have lost a pound per day since surgery. I can hardly keep Protein down though. But I am able to drink my Water.< /p>

I am one week out today and will reach my protein goal for the first time and will prolly make the liquids also.

Sorry Smiley the previous post was for @@walkin'onsunshine.

Hematomas (not sure of spelling) are common no big deal. They can be uncomfortable but they heal just fine.

sugar free popsicles are my new fav, my god they taste like a full course meal. I think I was really just sick of those shakes. I wonder what else tastes good, I'm going to have to get a wls recipe book like @@layknee did.

Three weeks of mushy foods may be the end of me. I keep forgetting to add my Protein Powder and I'm just plain tired of the mush. Feeling crabby and sorry for myself today.

I so understand. I can't wait until 4 weeks out when I can have some food to actually chew.

same with me. And I was having some chest pain. One suggestion that was given to me was to prop yourself with pillows keep you from turning over while you sleep. And try to use support when getting off the couch.

      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.
