August Post Ops
Okay, so I am at a stall for a while. I am at 226.4 stated at HW 259 SW 247. I have noticed that I am back 2 notches on my bra, and went from 3x shirt to 1x. down one size in slacks. Probably 2 sizes but I like them loose. My nutritionist said a lot of people stall then after 6 weeks (I am in week 5)the weight falls off. I am getting better with the protien but still do not get the full amount. I know that is key and I will work on it. How is everyone else at this stage of the game? I would really like to hear.

Ensure makes a shake that is 27 grams of protien and only 3 grams of sugar. It tastes great. It is kind of pricey but so much protien. Also, I like boost. You have to be careful because many of the boost are high in suger. They have one that is 16 grams of protien and 4 grams of sugar. It is only half the size of the Ensure. It is also pricey. Tastes delicious though. Good luck.

Is my weight loss too slow for 6 weeks post op?
I am real close to your stats. My sugery was August 22. Day of surgery I weighed 247 and now I weigh 227.6. So, 20 pounds in 4 weeks and 2 days. I think you are about normal. Pat yourself on the back and lift a sack of potatoes to really give you an idea how much weight you've lost. Congratulations on the weight loss.

I saw the nut yesterday and I can't have the protein bars for 2 weeks. I found some of the laughing cow cheese. It is fantastic. I had to have one incision worked on at the dr. The incision was open and draining and it was slightly infected. Dr fixed me up. I hope everyone from August 22 checks in- September Post Ops!
BroJoe, I had the same problem with sleeping on my side. Some one suggested tucking a pillow under my stomach. It works like a charm. Keep up the good work.- Done and done
Glad you are feeling well. Get in your liquids and protien if you can. this will help you heal faster. I hate to admit, I live in Cincinnati, but I am a Peyton Manning fan. Where ever he is thats the team I root for. When my Grandson had cancer, Peyton took time to meet with him, answer questions and throw a football with him. My Grandson got to spend the morning with the team at their training facility in Lucas Stadium, then have lunch with the team. He even got a team ball signed by all the Colts. This is why I love Peyton Manning. Take care of yourself and keep us posted.- Protein Powder
Thank you everyone for the suggestions. My Nutritionist sells the Unjury so I may try some of her samples first. I appreciate the input.- Done and done
Sorry about your Steelers! How are you feeling? Are you drinking ice Water and walking?- Protein Powder
I would like to know what is your favorite protien powder? What do you add it too? I am not getting in all the Protein and I thought adding a Protein Powder may help. I have noticed the powder is very expensive and I would like your comments to help me from buying the wrong one.- 5 WEEKS POST OP
I am 4 weeks out and still lethargic. Like you I have periods of energy but this quickly passes. I am not getting all the protien in and maybe that is why. I am also still sore on the left side. I had a hand assist which required an extra 2 and a 1/2 inch incision up from the belly button. The pain is on the left side where one of the incisions will not close and it leaks all day. I hope you get to feeling stronger. I suppose if you losing alot of weight some low energy is normal.- My changing body
Congratulations to you. I know what you mean about the liquids. I struggle with this too. I liked the taste of water before surgery but now not so much. It doesnt go down as easy. I use to be able to gulp it. Keep up the good work.- August 22nd!
I haven't gone anywhere. How are you feeling preemie mommy? I went back to work today. SO far so good. I'm still not getting all the protien in but tonight I am going to pick up some protien bars and maybe that will help. Let us know how you are doing and I hope all of our group are still here.- September Post Ops!
Congrats Shine. Keep us all posted. God bless you!- Laughing Cow - OMG!
Well I went to my grocery yesterday, Kroger and they do not sell laughing Cow. I will check on line to find out who in Cincinnati sells this- Laughing Cow - OMG!
I'm going to get some at the grocery tomorrow!- August 22nd!
Please don't leave Mrs Katie because I for one would miss you. I just have one question regarding both posts that I am hoping to get clarification on. ie. your pouch will stretch if you drink carbonation, or that you can't take pills after surgery) Is none of this true? My biggest concern is in regard to the pills you can no longer take. I have taken aleve for headaches in the past and they work best for me. My dietician told me that I can no longer tke them. Is this true? Any information with regard to this will be beneficial to me and thanks in advance.- need help!
Keep us posted Mz Shay. Prayers for you!- August 22nd!
I have a question. Do any of you sleep on your side? If you do, when you wake up do you get pains in your side? Just curious because I can't seem to sleep on my side with out that pain. - August 22nd!
