((hugs)) You could be me...I'm 4 weeks tomorrow and for the past week I've actually gained a little over a pound. I'd only lost 12lbs since surgery. Now I'm at 10.8lbs loss. The scale is up and down in the cursed 3 week stall that can hit any time from 2-4 weeks.

I am averaging 400-500 cals/day, about 60g of Protein, less than 20g of fat and less than 20g of whole carbs per day and less than 10g of sugar per day. I actually can NOT figure out how our bodies can hang onto the weight with that kind of deficit. I walk every day for a minimum of 30 minutes (3/4 mile).

I seiously got up this morning and just wanted to sob like a baby.

*hugs* back at ya. I really dont know girl i feel like.sobbing right next to you. Doing my best doesnt seem good enough and its my compelte focus right now as im not even back to work yet.

This weeks focus is Protein see what i can do here

Ok, here's mine for this Wednesday, March 21, 2018: 4 weeks + 1 day post op

SW 222.4lbs (2.20.18 RNY)

CW 210.4lbs (sigh--Damn you 3 week stall--why do you have to tease me so?)

Averaging about 450-500cals/day--eating mostly food for Protein. Having about 1/2 to 2/3 of a Protein Drink as needed to make 60g of Protein.

And the good news is that so far, I have not killed anyone yet due to my severe irritation with the scale and this forking stall!

CW: 240lbs

Constipation is for real, but over all I think I am doing okay. I am losing inches and am able to tell a bit in my face that it is getting smaller plus clothes is bigger on me. Yay! I do wish the scale would move faster but overall I am happy with my progress.

This has been a rough week. I caught a virus and have been throwing up/ dry heaving all day Monday. I ended up in the ER where I was able to get two IV bags and some Phenergan. Yesterday, I was able to get about 50 oz of fluids down. This morning, I’m back at work and tried to get some Protein in. I don’t think my stomach is quite ready for it yet. The good news is that I’ve been able to keep Water down today. It’s hard to stay hydrated when you can only sip between bouts of nausea.
Hopefully, things will get better from here [emoji4]

Five weeks out from RNY tomorrow. See my surgeon tomorrow and get to move to full/regular diet instead of just soft foods! Ready to crunch.

HW 427.4 (Jan. 2)

SW 413 (Feb. 15)

CW: 378.4 (down 34.6 since surgery and 49 overall.

Had a bit of a stall last week/this week and actually went up about a pound and a half, but I think (fingers crossed) it's finally breaking because I'm back down a pound again. I miss the 10 pounds per week average I was maintaining the first three weeks!

Still having a bit of trouble getting both Protein and Water in every day, so some days I end up prioritizing one or the other. Mostly sick of my protein powders, so I've mostly switched to Premier Protein and Protein2O (protein water) for boosting (if I drink one of each a day, that takes care of 45g protein and 28oz water, which is a big help) and am working on getting more protein out of my food instead of drinks. Also getting sick of eating a lot of the same things over and over, so I'm especially glad to be able to expand my diet tomorrow.

Where in hell-fire are all of our other Feb. Bypass Buddies? I MISSSSSSSS you!!! Come back and play!!! Update us with how you're doing. What are you eating? How much are you drinking? How much walking are you doing!!!

Have a great day everyone! I'm off to my 1 month check-up with the "sturgeon" and then on to my RD. I'm kinda nervous cuz am meeting Sis for lunch at one of my former haunts, Chuy's TexMex restaurant.

I'm reasonably sure I will either get grilled fish and shrimp tacos and just eat the guts sans cabbage slaw and take home leftovers, or else, will get Beans and cheese, or else will get tortilla Soup sans tortilla strips and corn! :D Wish me luck and pray for strength that no creamy jalapeno dip and chips will pass my lips.

      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.
