Day 10 post op QUESTIONS



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved on 11/18, and I have lost something every day up until this Tuesday, my one week post op visit. I lost 10 lbs total in that first week.

I haven't lost anything in the three days since then. Has anyone else ever experienced this? Is this considered a stall? Isn't it weird to happen so early?

Also, I am sliming practically from the minute I wake up. I'm measuring my food and not feeling any pain. Any suggestions on how to reduce this?

thanks!

This happens to me regularly, so I only weigh once a week or I'd drive myself crazy.

For the sliming, I suggest taking small bites and eating more slowly. I think that would help.

IT happens to all of us. Some more than others. Everyone's different. Some people lose steadily and some lose a lot of weight and then stall. What matters is the overall in the end. Don't weigh yourself all the time or you;ll drive yourself crazy. As for the the slimming as Beaglelover says all you can do is take very small bites and try to notice if some foods cause it more than others. You'll find that you can't tolerate all the foods any more. Again it;s different for everyone. Good luck.

I stalled at 2 weeks post op for 12 days. Thus far, my weight loss has been a series of stalls where I sit at a weight for a week or few days then lose 3 or 4 lbs. I usually when I stall my measurements go down. So my measuring tape is easy handier than my scale.

Im two weeks three days after surgery. I've been the same weight the last two days. Ive been losing a pound a day since surgery. I was hoping to keep losing until exactly three weeks but i guess not lol. So the dreaded three week stall is here early. Hope it doesn't last long. How are the other November sleevers doing with the stall?

Yes i have stalled twice since my surgery on the 20th Nov. And when i did loose it was 2 to 3 pounds at once. Its kinda wierd , but i think its just your body adapting to everything that is changing with your body and eating habits...good luck! ;)

I'm two weeks one day out and have been going up and down the same pound or two for almost a week. I know it's related to being bloated though.

      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.
