Week 9 post op....



Recommended Posts

I'm only two weeks out and disappointed in the scale. But trying on clothes in my closet...that is what made me say "wow"!

Just keep working the program. Good luck to both of us.

I feel the same... 8 wks only 16 lbs lost! 😣... I feel like I should have just stayed on the weight loss plan I was doing before surgery.. Better results.. No force feeding myself Water every 15 min! Ugh!... Well hope I feel different in a while 😋

From your mouth to my body! I hope it picks up!

I was supposed to have the RNY Bypass... But I'm thinking they played me and just stuck some holes in my abdomen! 😕

I feel the same way. If I didn't have the five scars I wouldn't think anything was done. I'm now 5 weeks out and at 21 pounds.

I lost quickly the first few weeks and now it's a pound or two a week. It differs for everyone and the less you have to lose, the slower your weight loss will be. Surgery for me was 1/17/17 and I've lost a total of 34 pounds...that is since the beginning of pre-op diet on 1/7/17.

You have to watch what you eat and drink nothing sugary or no carbs. No drinking thru a straw either. I had ryn bypass laproscopically on may 9th 2016 and I have lost 104 lbs already. It depends on u and your team

      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.
