I'm not gaining but I am flipping between 219 and 220. I think it's the dreaded 3 week stall!!!

No loss in 3 days. Is it a stall coming on? Nothing changed. Still on liquids but started working out. Lost 18 pounds in two weeks. Is my body in shock? Water and Protein intake is dead on. Need some reassurance. I didn't think it would happen this fast.

I was sleeved on 11/14 and feel the exact same way. I know some is head hunger because I desperately want to chew. I started chewing gum just to get over that. It's not just head hunger. My stomach is empty I can feel the air moving around and no restriction feeling at all. Keep trying different things. That's what I am going to do. I don't have post op visit Nut until next week when I also get puréed food. Hopefully this will help the hunger.

Hang in there. It gets better. Day 8 for me. No pain but learning to use tool is interesting.

The first few days have been a great learning experience. I have learned that I can easily get my protein in if I use my new timer app on my phone. It reminds me to drink SOMETHING either protein or liquids every 15 minutes. For now. Yesterday got almost everything in! Secondly, I started light exercising, even cleaned my house. I felt great! Imagine feeling great about cleaning OMG! Finally, I started using a straw when drinking. Made a tremendous difference with the pain I was feeling when the liquids hit the top of my stomach (hiatal hernia in addition to the sleeve caused a little more swelling and need for healing then most). Oh and warm liquids are so much easier than cold!!!

If your doctor said you have the stomach flu, he should also tell you what to eat or drink. Try broth and gatorade. Add your Protein if you can tolerate. I have colitis and I had surgery 4 days ago. My problem isn't it coming out the top end, just the bottom (sorry). I am going to try rice milk next as dairy makes the problem worse. I can mix bananas into the protein so that helps. As do the HUGE antiobiotic pills that i have to cut up into 8s to get down. Hang in there

Lots of pillows LOL I am a side sleeper so everything is propped and tucked
