That is very red for 7 weeks! Mine were completely heeled by 2 weeks! I know everyone is different. But I think u should ask your doc to look.

Wow! Good job! What are some of your staple foods? I feel like I'm losing kinda slow!

I'm doing really good:) down 19 pounds since surgery May 1st! Haven't struggled with anything. Today I was able to drink 2 gulps of water! Which I was really missing. Pretty much eating anything just chewing it really good! How about everyone else?!

My doc said to wait on eggs because they tend to get stuck.

I only feel nauseous when I go for a good walk. Tried tums yesterday?!? Didnt work Any ideas?

I was sleeved May 1st. Doing really well. Went back to work at 13 days. Started walking 4-5 miles a day at 2 weeks. And started some arm weights yesterday. I'm in the soft phase already. Ate tuna fish and chicken w a little mayo and saltines. Yup. Hard not to want to wash it down w a coke. I had a dcoke addiction that I quit on April 26th but for some reason craving a coke! Seems hard for me to get in enough water through the day. I always have to remind myself to go take a sip. Height 5'11" CW 228 lost 22 pounds/including 1 week liquids

Finally lost 3 pounds after a 10 day stall. I'm 17 days post op! Down 22 pounds total

Thank u for the feed back! Yes today I have my 2 week check so I have lots of questions for doc and nut. Do u really only have a 2 ounce protein shake? Mine are 8-11 ounces. Not sure if that was a typo;))) thanks

Stall for a week as well!!! Actually the past week up and down the same / pounds! Got me down today! I have been walking and working! Eating right I hope? Refried beans, avocado, soup, Greek yogurt! Go for my 2 week check today!

How are u ladies doing?

I do realize this is a tool. But it's the 1st time I have used this tool. And trying to understand it. I don't appreciate your rude tone. Please don't comment if u don't want to be supportive! P.S. I have put some work in!

And today scale says up 1 pound! What gives!

Hi I'm 2 weeks today post op. I have been on a losing stall for 5 days. But that isn't my concern. It happens to most people. My concern is I don't feel like I have much restriction. I can gulp water Gatorade2 protein shakes?!?? Food I can eat about 1 cup of refried beans w a little cheese avocado and a little fago plain yogurt. Seems like I should have way more restriction?!??

Can u tell me what kind of protein shakes u make?

Tell me about your eyelashes??!? How did u get those?

Still no lose 14 days post op! Day 6 nothing!!! And took some #2's on those days! Ha

Haven't named mine yet! But love the idea. I think my tummy would say u can call me anything just not late for dinner!!!

My stall started at 2 weeks of liquids!!! Lost 19 and now nothing for 5 days! Surgery was May 1st. Trying to be patient! HW 250 SW 241 CW 231 Height 5' 11"

Isn't the amount one loses based on how much they have to lose? So one person who weighs 360 will more likely lose more than someone who weighs 220! I think percentages should be used to compare.

I'm day 10 post op! All I have drank is Carnation Proteins and scale says Up a pound and a 1/2!!! I can understand a stall! But UP!

Are u feeling better?

Thanks everyone! Took it for back ache! I just got up and tried to flush pill outta me. Nausea went away! I'm 10 days post op today!! Down 19 total as of yesterday:))

Took a Tylenol 500 (not capsual) last night cause my back was acting up (still is) and now sick to stomach this am!

Thanks butterfly 2014 I know we r all so different but it worries me I can eat 1/4-1/2 cup of refried beans no problem 1st day on puréed. And than some can barely get a few bites in?!?!

Down 18.3 including preop. I ate refried Beans all day today w cheese and Greek yogurt! Yummy! So much better than Protein shakes. Doc says he would like 55 grams of protein. And at least 20 oz Water. Interested in what other docs want for consumption?
