Less than 2 weeks out and stopped losing



Recommended Posts

Hey all! I had surgery 2/8. I lost 2 lb a day for first 7 days. Now I have only lost 2 in last 4 days.at my post op appt at 10 days- they removed my drain and then told me I am clear for all exercise and to start introducing puréed foods as tolerated. It was super Earlier than I expected.

I am frustrated but more confused. Still only eating roughly 350-450 calories a day and can't believe I am not losing!

Relax, of course you're losing you calorie intake is really low. I would stop weighing myself. I don't even have a scale at home at this point. Too big of a temptation. I'd be weighing myself constantly. I've got plenty of post op appointments for the time being and will get weighed every time. I'm 33 days post op today.

I hope you find my opinion helpful to you and may God bless you and keep you! :D:1331_v_tone2:

A lot of people stall early. The infamous "week 3 stall" can really happen in week 2 or week 4 or whenever. Keep the faith and stay on course. You will lose the weight once your body stops freaking out from the changes that are and have happened (major surgery, very low calories). And rest assured, you will stall again. And again. And again. But eventually you'll get there. :)

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
