JUNE SURGERY BUDDIES

[renae97006 8]

I’m struggling to but I’m like forget it lol. I would prefer a list of what to eat but they said start adding things. I scan everything I buy to make sure it’s ok. The Pork rinds are great for that chip craving but I only eat like 4. Great Protein. For me I’m just trying things out and seeing if they work. Still pretty bland but I have had shrimp and ground beef tacos on those Keto street tacos. This week flavored drinks are giving me problems so only Water right now doesn’t make my stomach gurgling. It’s all new but we getting there.

Yeah that's me anything thicker than Water makes my stomach gurgle it's so weird I thought because I was eating too fast so I'm trying to introduce small things but I haven't had any beef products yet since that's supposed to be more harder to digest I don't know I'm still at a standstill with the weight and it's irritating me Sounds delicious I'm still with my broccoli cheddar Soup I mean the veggies in there are so dang soft you can just smash them with your tongue and it's pretty delicious with the Protein I'm still trying to graduate to all of this extra stuff it just feels so weird going down if it's not Blended and I'm a month out already minus a couple days

@Carla Ogwin it’s weird everything was fine with the sugar free packets until this week so idk what happened. I’ve had ground beef but it was low fat and I just had alittle in a bean meat and cheese Keto street taco. Today I had 2 spoon fulls of refried Beans, 2 cut up grilled chicken nuggets from Chick-fil-A with alittle cheese and it was so good. I thought I was drinking too soon, or eating too fast as well but I think it’s just the sugar free drinks. I might try them again in a few weeks. There was about 5 days were my weight didn’t change and I was so sad but then it went down but it’s definitely going down closer now than it did which idk if I like that.

I go to see my surgeon tomorrow, I requested because I'm moving I need to ask him about me not losing and do I need to eat more in order to lose I'm just confused

[renae97006 8]

Please let me know what he says, we’re kind of in the same boat.

I’m officially 4 weeks post-op tomorrow, starting my 5th week diet plan and it says I can incorporate turkey or roast beef deli meat…

I tried a piece of roast beef sliced paper thin and it’s definitely not agreeing with me right now.. 😬

I’ve been mixing peas with mashed potatoes lately though and it’s been really great.

The booklet says that I can start having baked fish and ground beef/turkey, but I think I’m going to leave it alone for another week or three..

Hey spoke with the doc, I was told that this stage is normal, even though it's not showing up on the scale but its showing on the body in inches. Plus he also said that the body is still trying to figure out what is going on. Continue to drink liquids and eating that Protein I'm good and to stop worrying

[renae97006 8]

That’s what I figured. We just worrying for no reason but it’s all new. We got this, just listen to our body and I like inches coming off lol. I wish I would have measured myself in the beginning. Thanks for the update, have a safe move.

How is everyone with JUNE 2023 surgeries doing? :)) I had bypass on June 24 and am feeling much better~ regaining my strength. I should have measured myself because I’ve lost a lot of inches even with just lost 23lbs loss. Just needing to connect to others so I don’t feel so isolated. Hoping you are all doing well!!:))

[renae97006 8]

@RAINE79 Things are so far so good, i feel like the pounds arent coming off as big as they were but there still coming off. I most definitely lost alot of inches and I wish i would measured as well. Anybody working out yet? I've started but I really need to get to the 5 days.

Hi - I had a bypass on June 1st. I have had a pretty good recovery and healing so far and was given the all clear to swim at 2 and a half weeks post op. I have been swimming mostly daily since. I was given the all clear to start some high intensity this week (with some precaution) - I've had one class so far and really enjoyed it. My starting weight was 215lbs and I'm now 179lbs. I'd like to lose another 79lbs.
