Thanks guys lol im feeling much better!

Remember, you are in survival mode at this time due to reduced calorie. Spend more time concentrating on healing. Don't worry about the scales yet. Sometimes it takes 2 to 3 weeks to get the swelling down then you should start seeing some weight loss.

I was just about to post that exact same question but searched for one already written. I am 5 days post op and haven't lost anything since surgery day. I thought for sure I'd loose something bc I've only had Protein mixed with Water, water, and sf Popsicles so with the drastic reduction in calories I figured I had to loose something. It's hard when people say don't look at other peoples weight loss but it's hard not too. That's why we come to these forums to see how other people are doing and to get an idea of what's supposed to be happening. I'm 28 if that matters lol.

I wouldn't worry about the progress of others right now please focus on your recovery. You may not be loosing weight rapidly because you don't have as much weight to loose and or your metabolism maybe real slow. After you have completely healed you may want to consider walking 30 min a day. I also had the same results after surgery I did not drop the weight like others, and my weight had stood still. I've just had my third fill one year after surgery so I'm hoping to see the pounds come off, but I can't watch anyone else and what they're doing or else I'll fail for sure. I am focusing on me and my weight journey and this is as unique as you are in this world. Some things that you can do once you've been given the all clear is to remember to eat 6 times a day three meals, three Snacks (this will help boost your metabolism and walk for 30min. Your are so young the weight will come off you have youth on your side but you will have to do some work. Hang in there and surround yourself with positive people and avoid negative people like the plague.

I understand it can be a downer, but don't worry, girl, your body went through trauma.... It's primary focus right now is healing. Believe me, it WILL catch up! A lot of people don't feel restriction until they start getting fills. Try your BEST to stay within the amount of food allowed (up to 1 cup of food during each meal) next thing you know, you'll be making trips to the tailor to get your favorite clothes taken in.

Omg its in!!! I had a hard morning but after a nap I felt just fine!!! Im super excited to see what kind of success I wil b able to achieve:)

So I went to buy almond milk I still cant drink the shake I start to feel nauseated :/ im gonna see if theres an alternate that I can replace them with

Lol im having a definite problem I hate milk... never noticed how picky my eatting habits are...no shakes for me...anyone tried any fruity protien juices?

Hang in there I know those shakes are hard to have for 10 days take a picture of yourself and tell yourself that u will not look like that again it helps me especially when I think I am falling of the wagon

Yes, I use the "Dole Shakers" (fruit) and add UNflavored Unjury

I use Body Fortress Protein Shots in fruit Punch and Grape (WalMart). They are either 2 oz (26g protein) or 4 oz (42g protein) and if you mix them in Water they taste like regular juice - I just down them from the bottle, since the band I have no appetite so the faster I can get through with something the better.

Almond milk makes a yummy shake......

I tried one, it was whey Protein but the flavor was apple and I hated it! I also cant stand milk, but only cows milk. I make my shakes out of vanilla and coconut almond milk and mix a lil yogurt in and its pretty good.
