@ me too...I keep hearing about people losing 15 to 20 pounds their first week . I am getting a little down about it. I just weighed and today is day 11 and I am down 9 pounds. I am trying to focus on the fact that I am going down but it is hard not to get caught up on that number!! And I think my body must be in starvation mode. I feel like I am living on about 350 calories a day. How are you doing with your Fluid intake? I get my Protein in okay but can't seem to get much Water in. And I have barely moved around. Kevin is making me go to the grocery with him today and get moving.

I feel like its one or the other lol Protein or Water and one gets left out. I'm active starting the gym next week for sure

Me too. Protein shakes! Preop diet has been difficult this weekend. We are taking the kids to pumpkin patch today = kettle corn, hot apple cider, apple cider donuts. It will be difficult but I will get through it. Day 12... The broth, veggies and hard boiled egg have save me. Thank goodness my Nut allowed that. But for last two days I will do diet just as I did the 1st 7 days.

My son has a visit with our nutritionist tomorrow. I think i am going to hijack it and declare it an emergency. I need advice from her asap. I am just not surviving on Protein Drinks ,broth and Water.< /p>

I'm feeling much better today, just kinda blah. I am ready to go home. I'm tired of sipping Water. I hope I did the right thing. Anyone else think this way?

[edie091371 544]

I have definitely had moments of thinking that way but I know in my heart I did the right thing.

Quick hello to everyone having surgery with me tomorrow- I share the knot in your stomach and happy yet nervous feeling of butterflies. But as Ron says, we got this!

The first week I thought like that all the time. Second week it is getting farther from my mind. As we can start to eat normal food and a little more, I think it won't be as bad!

[thinner-me 160]

Well I am only week 2, but hit my first stall. I have weighed the same for three days. I am trying not to get upset about it, because I've heard all the stories about them from others. But it's hard to not think that this isn't going to work! Ugh!

[edie091371 544]

@@thinner-me I feel you. I am scared to death of my first stall. I am only seeing 1/4 to1/2 pound weight loss per day and the thought of a stall is terrifying. But we all know it is a reality we will get thru. Hang in there. This too shall pass and this time next year we will all be laughing about how silly and whiney we were! We should try to do something like 1 one year get together or something for anyone interested in our October family!!!

Day 12 of pre-op diet and I'm starving I haven't had any trouble up till now Don't know why all of a sudden

[thinner-me 160]

I'm just going to keep doing what I'm doing. Eating what I'm supposed to and walk daily. I suppose it will move eventually! Just annoying!
