Nervous

Well on tuesday is my weigh in day.. I am nervous about not being down.. I have been hungry.. With being on liquids my surgeon said that i am not to focus on losing weight that this is a time to heal, but I feel like I need to be down some weight. I don't want to be stressing over this but I can't help it.. I have been keeping my calories to around 1100-1200. This has not been to hard i feel satisfied with this number but sometimes feel like I am eating to much.. How crazy is that.... Onto another topic I have a discharge anyone else have that like 10 days post op. It is a clear bright yellow... I have no fever, not a lot of pain but had night sweats last night and mild chills tonight.. I am waiting to call my clinic tomorrow morning. I am hoping it is nothing.. It is coming from the port site.. Anyways time for bed.

PS does anyone in canada know where to find this greek yogurt everyone is talking about???

Thanks for any feedback...

I did not lose any weight at all the first 2 weeks after surgery, don't stress about that at all. Also, I ALWAYS feel like I have eaten to much no matter how little it is. I think it is part of the whole guilt thing we have been living with all our lives. Eat, feel guilty, eat more, feel even more guilty. Hopefully, with time, that will go away!

Thankyou pdmarkle... Makes me feel better...

i recommend the yoplay whipped yogurt that worked really well for me...and as far as the weight loss...dont worry once you get your adjustment when its time it will all melt off...i was stuck at 25 pounds lost which was all pre surgery until just before my first adjustment...i actually gained1-2 pounds back....since then i have lost 10 more pounds...just focus on healing and feeling healthy....good luck!

Glad you're calling your doc! Hope all is well. -BG

You may or may not lose the weight. I lost 25 lbs from the time of my surgery until my first visit. All together I have lost 29lbs since surgery. If you count in the pre-surgery weight I have lost 40lbs. I always feel as if I have over eaten but it's impossible because I weigh everything.

Right now is your healing process. Just be thankful that you made the first step in your journey. The weight will come off as you go along. Also check your measurements because inches tend to come off faster than the weight does.

Good luck to you.
