Recommended Posts

First 2 weeks post op I had lost 16 pounds...then stall. Was so happy to see that I lost 1.8 pounds at my 3 week post op mark today....

Wanna talk about joy.. that 2-3 week stall is real

I'm cruising on this journey.. (even though I wanna speed).

1.8 pounds at my 3 week post op mark today....

@@NewLA

17.8 lbs down in 3 weeks?

that's wonderful

if you don't lose any weight for a couple of days, that doesn't mean you are in a stall

an "official" stall - you didn't lose any weight for at LEAST 3 weeks

you are now at 3 weeks, down over 17 lbs!!! :)

no stall here!!!

you are doing great

relish (or pickle LOL) the moment!!!

keep up the good work

i'm sure you will

kathy

congrats

Thanks. I hadn't lost any weight since my 7 days out which was July 11...stayed at the same until today July 28th. Hope I broke this stall as my body is healing..

Same as you. 4 weeks post op today and have lost like 16 lbs. but most of it was in the first week and a half. I know the 2-3 week stall is so real but hard to digest it for sure. Hoping to see the scale moving again

I am dying from the last 2.5 week stall I'm in. No measurement changes either and I was sleeved 7/5

The stall moved and I lost 3.4 pounds but that was from July 15th to August 4th. Let's see if it moves. I wonder if my lack of Protein intake is impacting it. I struggle with Protein

Probably.

Getting enough protein is critical for healing and for weight loss.

      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.
