Hi guys

Had my op on dec 25 can i be added to thr group please?

My NUT says i can move on to soft solids today but i cant seem to hold down basic stuff without wretching,

I tried eggs or baked potato without skin and it didnt sit well at all.

Im wondering if anyone has any ideas?

I was glad to read that some others are hitting that stall! I am a month out and the first 20 went fairly quickly, but in the last week....nothing! I do agree that the inches do still seem to be moving, so that is good.

I'm down 16kgs since 2 week pre op or 13 kgs down since op dec 5th.. I have had a slight stall week 3 to week 4.5.

I'm also a low BMI'er so I started at around 84kgs now I'm 68.

I don't do calories and wouldn't have a clue how much I eat but I do eat Protein at every meal and keep my fats up and carbs down to very little.

eggs are a major food in my plan as well as cottage cheese , cream cheese and any cheese really lol..

I eat chicken and beef mince and tuna

Cauliflower, carrot and zucchini mostly

Protein powder is sometimes added as well to different dishes ..

avocado is a huge part of what i eat as well

You are doing great. I started pre op weight at 242 lbs. ... surgery day weight was 219 lbs.. weight now is 191 lbs. so , 6 weeks with 26 lb weightloss but 51 lbs overall. I eat tuna, grilled chicken breast, squash, carrots, Protein shakes, boiled eggs, refried Beans, Greek yogurt and sugar free Jello. Spoke with nutritionist today and she said I am making great food choices and to give my body time to adjust and then lose. My doc said I am tracking on point as well today. I only have 40 lbs to go until I'm at goal but he said I may lose more due to he doesn't expect me to stop until June that is when I may plateau. My BMI is 30 now and it was 39.4 to start. So I thank God for blessing me with this opportunity. I'm staying optimistic and gonna keep on my elliptical until I get to where I want to be.

Yes I do ..... before I could literally go without deodorant ( not that I did lol)

Now I find I need more or an extra shower. And at the gym I'm like omg lol...

Maybe has something to do with ketosis or that extra Protein.. cause remembering back to when I stared body building I had the same thing

@@erica_ozzy73 I only have three wounds one to the right of my belly one to my left and one below my sternum as well- the one below my sternum was where the liver retractor was- at least that's what my dr told me so nearly everyone should have that one because it's where the liver is lifted for the procedure

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
