  1. Are you counting the liquid pre-op diet or just after surgery? I expected to loose a lot faster also. Getting sick of friends and family asking how much I have lost every time I talk to them and then saying "oh". I am four weeks out today and have only lost 14 pounds since surgery and a total of 31 pounds including my pre-op liquid diet. I cannot tell a difference at all.
  2. I was told to do instant breakfast no sugar added after surgery. I add Isopure to it.

  4. Thank you so much! I have not increased the amount I am eating for a week. Do not know my signals yet. Going to increase my next meal and try 1/4 cup...scary!
  5. 2 weeks post op tomorrow. Feel awesome and am not on any pain meds. Feel 100%. All wounds are healing up great. Only issues am having is head hunger. No feelings of being full at all. Sometimes get a bit frustrated about that as not satisfied. Eating about 2 oz pureed until soft food intro on the 18th at my one month follow up. How much is everyone else eating at this point?

  7. OK I am feeling the same way and I am on Pureed. 2 oz is not doing it even if I take the whole 20 mins to eat it.
  8. My deal is that I do not seem to have to wait as long and take as long drinking as other people...shake 15 mins, bottle of water 20 mins. It is freaking me out. It is also getting harder to wait the full 30 mins before and after eating. And NO feeling of fullness at all, not once. I feel like I am not following rules...
  9. Funny I had watery diarrhea from the get go and that stopped only as few days ago (I am 10days post op) Had a pretty normal one today but nothing odd about it.

  17. Amazon has it, if you are a shut in like me I also bought (eye roll but it works) Joan River's hair powder. It is in a compact and matches your hair color and comes with a brush, you just dab it on your scalp. Totally works. Google it. It is one of those monthly things but just order once and cancel. The brunette is very dark though!
  18. No restrictions for NN No restrictions here. I have a Keurig and am going to just do espresso with splenda. I cannot survive without my coffee and my nutritionist said its all good.
  19. OK I did it I posted a dumb ole pic and I adjusted the lighting and messed around until did not have a double chin. I was oh so focused not to move and keep the pose or it may come back!
