Has anyone had stalls like this?

Lololololol yes they do need a medal

I try to stay away frm sugar also but something hv a little in it. So wasnt sure how much is too much.

I put neosporom on mine. 1 looked it had puss in it though. I did tht for over week n a half.

Uhh Im stuck on the scale. Im 3weeks post, will be 4 weeks on Monday. Its only showing 13.5 lb loss & over 13 inches. Thats terrible! Im only getting 400-600 calories a day. My doctor wont let me walk or exercise until after 4 weeks. Any ideas? Has anyone else been like this?

How many carbs are you doing in a day? Sugar content? Curious as wht is a good count.

Yes I thought so too! So glad i got some.

Thers an app called My fitness that i love. It keeps up w calories, protein, sodioum, cabs, ect. Very easy to use. Its helped me a lot to make sure im getting my protein & not too much carbs.

I dont smoke & certainly am not going to judge. Honestly, how cld anyone on here? We've all had an eating prob or we wouldnt hv had the surgery. Your ID, says a lot & very encouraging. I hope you dont mind me suggesting something to you. You may think its silly but writting encouraging notes (the opposite of what u r feeling & posting them thru your house & reading them all thru the day can help boost ya. Just a thought. Hope you get to feeling better.

Wow tht does seem extreme. I was two weeks liquid which included yogurt, 3rd wk soft & from there wht i can tolerate

Thanks to this forum, I found laughing cow cheese! I never would hv thought to get that. Its great!

Thts horrible if it makes you sick. I take 2 chewable flinstone (after lunch) 1 cap of 1000mg of wellness liquid Calcium +d (at night), liquid b12 (in the morning). The calcium taste very good too. Have you tried any of these?

Maybe a family member can help w the shopping? My husband has helped me out a lot. He eats before he gets home most of the time & even tries not to eat in front of me. I told him im fine now. Im 3wks post op but him doing tht helped a lot.

Thats a wonderful idea...buying it at a Chineese restraunt. Thank you so much everyone.

Thanks a bunch. Its very encouraging hearing how much weight others are losing.

Every dr. Has their patients doing diff things. I started a new job 1 week after my surgery. My dr. Okayed it because it ws a desk job.

Does anyone hv a recipe for egg drop soup? It sounds good. Thanks

Im 3wks post op & wondering what everyone is losing monthly? My atomach is still swollen from surgery (not bad it has went dwn a lot), my clothes are fitting a lot looser. Shirts tht were tight are not now. My scale shows about 13 lbs. So far.

I have noticed on here & searching the net that each dr. Has their own preference on what their patient can have. My dr. Put me on liquids for 3wks then start adding soft foods, which is what I hv been trying. If i can tolerate it, he said it was fine.

I appreciate your update. My doctor is the one tht said it ws ok & also gave me juice in the hosp. I didnt however realize abt the Greek yogurt until reading in the forums so, im for sure going to try tht. I hv been doing great, but fluids are the hardest to get dwn. I knw im not getting enough protien. I havent found a protein drink i can intake yet.

I actually use a whole yoplait but ot does make a lot.

I have a hard with liquids but I xan do this very good. 1/2 yoplait light strawberry (any flavor will work) pineapple juice (less than 1/4, it really dowsnt take much 1/2 cup of ice Put all in blender, pulse it. Awesome drink to get fluids in you. Would love more liquid recipes.

I used the campbell chicken noodle for my broth. Taste a lot better. My stomach cldnt tolerate tomatoe soup. I also use the wellness liquid 1000gm Calcium at night, 2 flintstone multi in the afternoon & b12 sublin in the morning.

I am 3wks out & I still hv a hard time with fluids period. Hot tea seems to be the best for me to drink. I ws a water drinker before surgery & now I just cant drink it hardly.

Thank you so much. I will look tht website up. It sounds good. Ive noticed tht every doctor is diff to wht they want their patients to have & when. Its interesting.
