zimbarb 1 Posted July 28, 2015 Hi, Tomorrow will be 3 weeks post op, I have had a great experience so far, I am very hard on myself and get on the scale all the time, I am down 17 pounds since surgery and almost 30 since 2 week post op, just FYI to help others the scale did not move for 3 days but then dropped 4 pounds so if you are experiencing this hang in there! I am now starting to get hungry, last night i woke up in the middle of the night starving! I am still mainly having plain yogurt mixed with a bit of fruit (blended) and either the primer shakes 30g Protein 160 calories or shakes from Dietician. I am experiencing headaches that feel like hunger headaches, The surgeon said only a little liquid tylenol. I am having 650-800 a lories most days and more than the 64 of Water.< /p> What di you do for headaches, also and I know ppl feel this way a lot…How many calories are did you have or are having at 3-4 weeks out and what kind of foods? i had some tuna with cottage cheese and it went down fine but it sat in tummy ,too soon? thanks.

rnsamantha 352 Posted July 28, 2015 I'm just over 4 weeks out. I have the occasional headache and take Tylenol for it. I actually find I have less headaches now than when I was in my preop diet. Calories are still a struggle for me, I get between 500-710 per day, and it's work to get them. I drink between 60-80 oz of Water per day, but it's usually closer to 60 than 80...it sounds like you're doing better than me with you water and calories!!

Soapandcandlequeen 124 Posted July 31, 2015 Make sure the headaches atent due to dehydration. I had really bad headaches for a few days after surgery and my surgeon said I could have excexrin of I cut it into smaller peices Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
