Hello, I am still pretty new here but im trying to find similar stories and experiences. My 1st follow up is tomorrow with the surgeon. I haven't been keeping good track on what amounts of liquids and foods im taking in. im starting to have a really hard time with excepting how hard this really is, i imagined it difficult but this is insane! i fantasize about any food now, i wish i could taste everything that comes on the damn commercials. im still in whole liquids but i have been cheating with small curd cottage cheese and refried Beans the past few days. no nausea, just sudden fullness quickly after eating a few bites. i gave up on the one ounce cups to measure, now i just sip or eat slow in a small container. i have blender fantasies about junk food!

You know what I notice about weak men with low self-esteem? They constantly sabatoge your progress in anyway that they can. I remember the closer I got to obtaining my bachelors degree, (a major accomplishment because I was working full time), the harder my ex would cheat on me and compete with me. He wanted me to be so consumed with him and grief that I would just give up altogether. Girl puhleese, he did not and could not get that! I agree with the other ladies, he is probably jealous that you are handling your handle and do not need him for this new journey. Stay focused and pray for yourself and for him. Maybe GOD will bring him around but if he keeps rolling like this, you may have to remove him from your life so you can grow. Best wishes!!

I had my surgery on the 17 th too and have lost 7 lbs. it did not come off in the first few days. Only now that I am more active. I am having the same problem with palatability. Talked to nutritionist today and she said I could have any creamed Soup if I blend it. I'm looking to try that tomorrow and add milk for Protein. So I can get about 60 G protein from two shakes a day of nectar chocolate truffle which is bearable. Then hopefully some variety from creamed Soups.< /p>

15 to 20 in a week???
Not possible, I believe its usually about a pound a day but not even that mostly 15 to 20 a month.
Now I could be wrong but this is what I have seen.
I think you're doing great, no worries.

Some people weigh the same for the first few days to a week cause u got fluids in the hospital and that puts weight on. So if u lost any in first week that's great. Keep it up!!

thank you! i thought it was alot too but i figured it might have been because of their weight one was over 400 the other under 300. but i also thought that was normal
