MindfulWeightLoss

I had something similar. I had some grilling beans by Bush beans. It gave me so much gas that it ripped through my stomach and bowels causing extreme diarrhea and vomiting.

Having the same symptoms. Wondering how you are making out?

Two weeks post surgery: Lots of cottage cheese Yogurt SF Frozen pops Frozen yogurt pops with added vanilla Protein nectar protein Spiruteun protein with almond milk Jello Soups Propel SF waters Sobe zero drinks

Lost 23 lbs post surgery on optifast. After surgery I gained 5 lbs which I think was water weight. Loss 2 lbs since surgery at two weeks out. Not discouraged yet but want to make sure I an doing the right things. Extremely tired, trips to store wipe me out enough for a short nap. Getting in all protein and water. Wish I could see more loss at this juncture. Concerned about energy level.

I completely agree

Awesome summary! Thank you!

Depends on your pre op diet. I was on optifast and never felt hungry so it was fairly easy to go the distance. Be careful not to start so early that you can't stick to it. Determination is key. Good luck.

Thanks for the good wishes. I've lost 12lbs on pre op diet of Optifast. Haven't been hungry at all. It's a lot of protein. It puts your body into ketosis really fast then you drop all the water weight and start burning fat.

You are doing fantastic! Keep up the great work!

Thanks for sharing your experience. I go into the hospital Monday and was wondering the same thing. Good luck to you on your journey.

Will finish preop diet tomorrow. Sunday clear liquids then hopefully I can get some sleep before my 6:00 am chech in. Super excited. Scared about the pain. Glad to be finally here after 6 months of dr visits and classes. God speed to all of us ha vying surgery this upcoming week.
