So its almost two months. When I went to my two week post opp my surgeon told me my first fill will be at 6 weeks and that i might even gain weight. I gained two pounds and had some crazy hormone stuff going on . My period which I didn't have for almost a year came back with a vengeance. I swelled up and even had to go on hormones for two weeks. So I guess I didn't do to bad after all .
I have my first fill this month and have noticed i have reduced my eating but' would like it reduced a little more. I go back next month and well see what he does.
I went to my nutritionist this week and when she first weighed me I was 249.2 pounds this time I was 224 So not to shabby !!!
Hope I get to my 150 in a years time Wish me luck and ill keep ya posted !!
Mashed potatoes !!!! They sell them at walmart all you do is add water and micro for 1 min and its heaven . Helped me a lot . Im starting my 3rd week Tuesday
Woke up from surgery June 26th and felt horrible. Walked the hospital halls and felt ill was given medication. This is day 6 and still have pain on my left side . The doctor said it was normal and it has gotten better each day. Looking forward to starting the next weeks thick liquid foods. I personally don't care for sweet stuff ,shakes and frozen pops . Looking forward to creamy soup !!! The first few days thought this wasn't worth it but now i'm down over 17 pounds !!!!
Im doing better after making sure I broke up the shakes in 6 small meals and the broth helped a lot. You need calories my doctor has me eating Minute Maid Juice pops . The 60 calories box . Helps a lot ! Only 2 a day though
I have two friends who have lost 100 on the band. The band is adjustable . Bypass pouch can be stretched out and weight will come back . With the band they can make it smaller again . Im three days past surgery
Im on day 3 , The ADKINS shakes are thicker and seem to satisfy longer. I drink lots of water . Cant seem to tolerate sweet stuff like water flavors, gatoraid and Popsicles. Today is the first day i feel some what well
I had my surgery on Wednesday. The nausea is crazy along with the gas at this point im thinking was this worth all this and how soon will all the yucky feeling go away.
