Recommended Posts

Getting so frustrated. 3.5 weeks out and haven’t lost anything since the first week.




Yes it is so frustrating when that happens! That was happing to me and I started drinking lots of Water in between meals and it has helped me start up my weight loss again..so keep the faith it will all be worth it. Also exercising will really help too!

How much water are you drinking? I feel like either I do really well with the Protein or really well with water. But not both.

It’s hard to do both water and Protein Drinks I know but I try to drink2 to 3 32 oz cups through out the day as well as my protein drinks..I wasn’t drinking enough water as what my Dct told me...I carry a big thing of water with me everywhere I go!

How’s everyone feeling. I was sleeved 2/15. I’m down 2 sizes and feel like I can take in more Water today than even this morning. I just had 12 oz of water in about 1 hour when before that would take several. Anyone struggling with purée (current stage) Or liquids are you starting to feel a little better ?

Sleeved 2/27 and I drunk a 16oz bottle of water within a hour and a half so things are getting better

8 days post op. This is TMI but I managed to poop today for the first time after surgery! I am so relieved. It was firm but it wasn't hard to pass. I don't even know how I managed to do so when all I've been having is broth, herbal tea, fat free greek yogurt, and Water.

I am not hydrating as well as I should though, I think I get in 30-35 oz of water a day. :( My doctor recommended 65 oz at least. I am hoping other liquids count.

I hope all went well with your surgery yesterday! Welcome to the formally banded club. It feels good to finally have the port removed.

Surgery had a few complications. While in recovery started to bleed internally. They had to rush me back in to surgery and fix the problem. Finally recuperating. It’s been a rough two weeks. I feel very lucky to be alive. While in hospital they pumped me up with 25lbs of Fluid. So since my release I’ve lost 35 lbs. mostly all that fluid they pumped in me. Have lost10 lbs in 2 weeks of my regular weight.

So, has any early February sleevers had a stall or slow loss yet? I've lost only 5 pounds in almost two weeks time. CW: 212. I did transistors to pureed foods and definitely full after 4oz. Struggling with liquids throughout the day.

      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.
