  1. I am six weeks out of surgery. My stats are 5'3" and current weight 211. Since I went off the pre-surgery liquid diet I have never eaten more than 600 calories. I am taking my Vitamins, drinking Water, getting all my Protein in and working out on my elliptical every second day. I initially lost 6 pounds on the pre-surgery diet, and have only lost 11 pounds since. I am so disappointed. As of this week I have gained 2 pounds, so now at 213. I have hypothyroid and PCOS. Is anyone else losing this slowly? So sad.


  2. This was WAY too familiar to me. I had a very similar experience on my third day out and had no idea what to do. I am now regularly drinking a small glass of prune juice daily and it seems to help. I do want to share that I got the best text of my life when I told my Husband that I had achieved victory...........RELEASED THE CRAPPEN!! lol


  3. I had my surgery on Tuesday the 16th. I came home after one night, and have not needed any pain medication. The first couple of days were really hard to get liquid in, but today is day 5 and I really do feel great. I am drinking up to a cup of Water an hour, and about 1/2 to 3/4 of a cup of Protein Shake. I'm not tired, although I was a little emotional. I wish you good luck,and a speedy recover! I was scared to death before, but I feel good now :)
