I was sleeved 2/25 and altho at first getting my liquids in was hard I now get about two premier shakes a day to get my 60g of Protein and I get Water in, I've tried scrambled eggs and everything goes in fine and altho in small portions I feel like I'm not losing weight! The scale hasn't budged in a few days and it's weird because I only get 320 calories a day!

Many of us experience a plateau/stall near-ish three-weeks post op, though it can vary. It's very normal and your weight loss will resume. You body went through a major surgery and nutritional changes. Your body is adjusting.

Hang in there and best of luck!

dont worry about the scale. Go by how you feel and how your clothes fit. That is what helps me get through the slower days when it seems my scale isn't moving.

In addition to all of the above I do the Soup broth that adds a bit more calories. And I drink Vitamin water zero, which has more vitamins and electrolytes. Maybe give that a try.

My "dreaded 2 week stall" lasted 2 1/2 weeks. It's a common problem. Your body thinks you're starving it and holds on to as much as it can. IT WILL END!!! But it is kind of discouraging, but try not to let it get you down. This too, shall pass!!!

      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.
