Hey Guys just an update on my weight loss. As of today I weight 196.4 so I am close to my 180 goal before June if I reach 180 before June I will set a new goal for 170.

Hope everyone is doing good with this challenge.

I am struggling I get sick when I eat or drink puree just been sticking to Water and Popsicle. I try but it gives me a feeling in my chest like I want to throw up. Still drinking 4oz to 2oz every hour. I spoke with doctor and he said continue trying.

I walk everyday and play wii fit. Any advice

I feel the same way working out everyday and now am not losing any weight. Still on full liquids even though they clear me for purée I tried it but was not feeling it.

I don't think crunches is a great idea. I would stick to walking and cardio. I am 1 week out an I do the advance wii steeping for 20 minutes and then I do hula whoop on the wii but for only 3 minutes and more walking.

But check with you doctor...

I was sleeve on April 5th, been feeling good first few days were hell for me today makes a week and I am feeling much better. I can sleep on my side and even though am not taking all 48-60grams of liquid I have reach my highest which is 38.

I truly dislike the chewable vitamins but I have no choice. Beside that it has been a week since surgery and still on Clear Liquids. When I left the hospital on Sunday my weight was 220 and today I weight my self and I am 207.

I am walking a lot and doing the wii fit advance stepping which helps me have energy during the day as well my 1 year and 7year old keeps me on my feet.

It is all about the mind because I still have to cook regular food for my kids and when I smell the food I want to eat it but then I look at the changes I have made in these last few months and wouldn't traded for anything. I always love food but now is time to love food in a different way to adapt to my new life style.

Hope everyone a great recovery and keep in touch.

I'm with you! I'm having my surgery Monday as well and I'm starting to get nervous. I have no idea what I will be having after the surgery or how much pain I'll be in...I'm having a hard time with my pre-surgery liquid diet as the Protein Shakes my doctor gave me are absolutely horrible!

Hey

I was sleeve on 4/5 and started 2 day liquid before surgery, basically chicken broth, Water, diet snapple, ginger ale and auger free Popsicle.

I was really hungry when I went in for surgery and after the surgery when I was in recovery I finally was settle in my room And was really thirsty and I was not allow to drink anything till the following day.

Following day comes and you have to start your liquid diet all over for 4 hours you start with 1oz liquid it can be diluted juice or it can be Water. I myself took me to the whole afternoon and evening to finish my 1oz liquid. I feel every time I sip I felt discomfort on my chest and just couldn't drink. Finally following day started the 2oz and I started drinking hot broth and it went down smoothly and for every hour my intake increase till I reach 4oz. Finally they took me off IV once I reach 3oz.

Went home on 4/7 and was unable to consume anymore liquids after I got home from hospital. Tuesday wasn't able to consume all 64oz of liquids and today I am still working on my liquids to increase.

When I do feel my stomach empty I try and drink an 1oz of water or my pure Protein ready shake I think the pure Protein Shake that comes ready is works miracles. I also am able to consume the ice pops with out a problem.

I feel super weak I walk alot today to stay off the bed but hopefully this weak feeling will go away.

Hope I help a little wish yah the best and just think positive.

Hi Joan' date=' Popsicles will be your lifesaver. I'm now going on my 7th day post op and still can only consume 1 oz an hour. chicken broth and bouillon cubes have started to make me gag. I use slim fast as part of my Protein because I haven't found one that I like, my support group at work told me about premier shakes, I think I will try those next. Hang in there it will get better.[/quote']

Hey

Yes I defiantly went to super market and got some Popsicles they are truly a life saver.

I just feel extremely weak hopefully it will get better.

Thanks

Sorry my one year old son took my phone and did this..

But I just fix it an share my story 3 day post surgery. Got surgery on 4/5

Kelly my stomach is hurting too' date=' I can't consume my 4 ounce in that hour only like 3. I kinda feel depressed too.[/quote']

I got home yesterday and did great with the 4oz in the hospital before getting discharge. Now I am home and is hard to consume 4oz in that one hour. I do about 1oz then 3oz some hours is just so hard. I feel very weak and I started the pure Protein Shake that all I been tryin to consume the broth makes my stomach hurts and finally got some Popsicles and was able to eat one.

Sorry my one year old son took my phone and did this..
