Provost reacted to Mishyd84 in June 2020 surgeries
I completely understand! I’ve hit a long stall as well where I’ve fluctuated around 3 pounds. I’m hoping that I can finally get out of it because I weighed this morning and it was a different number. We just have to keep pushing!

Yay! I lost 15 pounds the first 2 weeks but I’m definitely in the week 3-4 stall, lol. Haven’t lost a thing since last week and I’m almost 4 weeks post op. Fingers crossed it breaks soon!

I am in the same boat G8trgrl. I am 4 weeks out. I lost 20 lbs the first two weeks but have stalled the last two weeks. I know it happens but you can’t help but wonder if your doing something wrong.

We are surgery twins. My weight loss has for sure slowed down. I'm sure it will pick back up and even out for us.

I am in the same boat! I had a switch done on June 10th, and I’ve plateaued at 30lbs weight loss. I’ve been sitting at 328 for the past week and a half and I’m frustrated. I’ve finally started getting in all of my Water, but it’s hard for me to get in all of my Protein. I’m on stage 4 of my diet, as that’s what my clinic wants us to do in order to keep our pouch from forming incorrectly.
I’m going to sign up at the gym to swim, and hopefully that kicks the weight loss into gear.
Keep your head up and don’t give up! We can all do this together!

Today June 25th was my surgery day at Blossom. Have to say so far my experience has exceeded my expectations. If you’re nervous, try not to be. Everything went on schedule and was seamless. I’m about 7 hours out from surgery. No pain, just a little discomfort. Gas pain is gone but was tolerable. At this point, I absolute don’t regret this decision. They’ve been A++++!

Had my Covid test yesterday and it was horrible... my right nostril is still hurting..... and i was STARVING last night. I had to mentally chain my body to the bed because i was craving potato chips... i rarely even eat potato chips.... i even said i will get them and just lick the outside.... arghhhh....

Surgery is on Friday.... i am struggling

Night snacking has been where my struggle is too, but I have pushed through and made it. My surgery is scheduled for tomorrow morning at 9am.

My doctor isn't that worried about my Protein, I have been around 35-40 grams almost exclusively from Premier Protein drinks, I am 2 weeks out now.
At 5 days I wasn't having much at all.

Two weeks post surgery (tomorrow). No huge issues, some Constipation and I had to take some Colace and milk of magnesium.
I am still hardly taking anything in. One Premier Protein drink and about a cup of Soup a day. No weight loss in last 4 days which is annoying, but I know it will start happening again. Still down about 15-16lbs since surgery and 43lbs overall since I started the process.

Gastric Sleeve 08th June, it had been postponed from March due to Covid.
Two days in hospital due to nausea from general anaesthetic (I always have that post surgery).
No pain at all really, even had to drive (be driven) for 9 hours home.
Not able to put much into myself at the moment and not sure how normal that is. The first few days it was literally a few sips of juice/milk. A little over a week out and I can finish a Boost Protein drink over the course of the day and half a cup of cream Soup. I have tried some thinned applesauce but that isn't sitting too well.

I had mine sleeve done this afternoon. 3/19/20. Follow the diet precisely. The girl that came out of surgery before I went in for mine was in the bay next to me. She was screaming with pain and vomiting violently for at least ten minutes. I was about to back out of my surgery after hearing her struggle. Then her nurse told me that that's what happens to people that don't follow the pre-op diet. I woke up from surgery with pain and a little panic, but both were quickly mitigated with medication. Thank God!

Got cancelled last minute because of the virus stuff. Just got back into town. Kind of glad as schools have since been cancelled indefinitely and I wouldn't have been able to take care of the kids all day long while recovering.

Scheduled Monday, I think it is a race to get it done before they stop elective surgeries and focus on preparing for virus stuff.

Congratulations on your successful surgery. I was yesterday also, I finally made it home. I'm in my bed with my feet elevated, new pajamas and Isopure Protein Drink ready for Clear Liquids on my side table. My incisions are a little annoying, but that's to be expected. Don't cough though, it hurts beyond words, I just found out.

Mine was yesterday, March 3. I’m on my way home from the hospital now. (A two hour drive) It was pretty easy for me to be honest. A little pain when I woke up and a little nausea here and there, but no dry heaving. Started walking within a few hours. Incision sites are a bit sore and if I turn a certain way or stand up too fast it’s uncomfortable. No trouble getting Water in.
