Awww a breath of fresh air. Thank you everyone. I did wake up today and had dropped 3 lbs so hopefully my stall is over....For now. I will start spreading my protien out. May just open it n take sips throughout the day. Bc I did down it yesterday morning. It's was like drinking Syrup. Soo gross. But then I was so shaky n icky all day. Not good. I tried avocado been one my favorites since BIRTH and now I can't eat it. I will just keep on keeping on. Again thanks everyone for ur advise n listening ears

Hi. I was sleeved Feb 6. And was averaging 1-2 lbs a day. Now for past 5 days nothing. This makes no sense to me. I am clearly taking in less calories then you burn in a day. I am on 2 shakes n soft protiens. I get my protien in morning with a protoshot49. My Dr said he wasn't worried bout losing weight right now. That i need to heal completely. Has anyone experienced a stand still so early?

Also if I get my protien in the morning do I need to eat any more during day?

Thanks ????

I had my surgery on the 2/7/14 & Im on all liquid diet until the 19th! I have been doing smoothies, unjury & stage one baby applesauce and other fruits! Oh Italian ice

I was done 2.6.14. I am also on full liquids till 19th. But I have been doing muscle milk slightly frozen, Power Crunch bars (OMG so yummy), Soups, malt o meal, and I ordered foods from a bariatric website that have high protien foods.

I am wondering if there is any one way to do this. I feel I can tolerate just about everything iv tried. I even had a few protien chips made from lentils and garbanzo Beans n some other bean with my Soup. I don't eat much. But I have been losing bout pound a day then today NOTHING. ugh right wrong good bad?!?!?

I'm fresh out of surgery too. 2/6/2014, and I have this knot in my throat. I've experienced it one other time in my life for several weeks and my pcp told me it was anxiety. I'm assuming the changing hormones and the sudden changes this surgery have brought into my life is the culprit.On Saturday I was an emotional wreck because I was terrified that I would feel as miserable as I did forever. Anyone else experience this? Please tell me it gets better.

Hello. We have the same date. I was sleeved 2.6.14. I haven't felt emotional. But I wasn't going to b surprised if i was. With all the emotional situations going on right now. We r reborn into a new n different world. I am struggling with logistics of what to eat what not to eat. I seem to tolerate things just fine. I found some chips that r high protien. And Power Crunch bar...OMG heaven! But we r support a b on full liquids. So idk. I am feeling over whelmed.

Hi. I'm in Tucson. Had my sleeve done Feb 6. So far I feel good. My bellybutton hurts most. I am not doing real good at getting all my liquids but trying. I want malto meal. I have heard different Dr have different ideas as to Clear Liquids n pureed foods. Day 5 coming up. What have u been tld?

Love Norman. Use to live there born n raised a sooner

What's crazy is I live all the way in Durant, down by the Red River but was born and raised in Paul's Valley. My friends have used Dr Nelson and loved her, she's at a Center of Excellence and I think it's worth the drive.

My daughter plans to go to OU when she graduates next year. Boomer Sooner!
