So I was sleeved June 23rd...I'm down 38 pounds (that includes the weight I lost during my 2 week pre op diet) I've been doing pretty good mentally up until recently. I am sooooo tired of these post op phases to the point of tears. I just moved to the purée foods and I thought changing it up with make me feel better but it doesn't. I would kill for a freakin crunch...it's not even that I want anything bad for me. Actually...what I'm craving is a veggie tray with hummus but I can't have it. Some people say these phases don't bother them because nothing sounds good...but to me anything but protein drinks, soup, and mooshy crap sounds good. Ive been doing this for 5 weeks and now I find myself not even eating and getting my protein in because I'm so over it. I need to change my attitude but is anyone else struggling?

Any out there?!

I feel like what I'm eating is too much but I don't physically feel like it. Ok eating out for instance.... Because we all have to do it sometimes...are you able to order a whole grilled chicken sandwhich (minus the bread) and eat the whole grilled chicken patty on it? My weight has been stalling aaaa llllooottt. And it's really frustrating. If u don't mind me asking how much have you lost since surgery?

Give me some examples of what and how much you eat for lunch or dinner. Please (:

How much are you eating? Like give me an example of a meal you have... I'm just curious how much I'm eating compared to others! :/

Any out there?!

Ok so I am getting so irritated. I hag surgery June 23. I lost 20 lbs before. And in my first couple weeks after surgery I lost another 20. But for the past couple weeks I've lost nothing.....nothing. I'm getting a lot of protein, and enough calories! What the heck is happening? I feel like almost 3 weeks of nothing is a long freakin time. Anyone else have this problem?

I had surgery June 23rd... How much should I be eating at once. Sometimes I feel like I get full fast. And then sometimes I feel like I eat more than i should for having such a small tummy...but my tummy doesn't feel that way! I dunno....input please! (:

I had my surgery April 7th. I have lost a total of 67 pounds. Roughly I lost 30 pounds in the first few weeks, then stalled for 5 weeks through May. So through June and July I have lost about 37 pounds. I don't know if it's a "good" pace or not but my weight has gone consistently down each week, with the exception of my period weeks sometimes it will only go down 1lb or 0. (Also to note, my starting weight was 310 and I'm 5'4''. My official "excess" weight was about 160 pounds I think. So "lbs" lost vs % lost ... I don't think my pace is as good as others with as much as I have to lose. But I haven't tried to compare a whole lot, I'm happy with the down direction lol). That's awesome!! I'm down 43 now...but I'm just looking forward to losing more (: Also....how much are you eating? Sometimes I feel like I eat more than I should. Sometimes I eat a little bit and I feel full fast. And sometimes I eat more And I don't get that feeling. What's a lot? Like how many ounces do they say we should eat at a time?

When did you have surgery? And how much have you lost now? If you don't mind me asking.

I hope so too!! Keep me posted (:

Thank goodness!! I thought the 3 week stall meant at like 3 weeks post op you had a stall that week. Not like 3 weeks of a stall!! Geeeez Louise!!! Thanks tho (:

Glad I'm not the only one... Ugh

And I've tried multiple.

I have chewed and spit it out as well...and the thought if drinking a shake makes me wanna GAG... I can't stand it

I just posted something similar I'm struggling too.

Has anyone ever had dumping syndrome even if they never ate anything bad. It's my last week on Liquids and this am I had what seemed like a dumping syndrome episode but I didn't eat anything

How long did your doctor make you wait to swim...not like serious swimming but get in water and float around?

Ok on liquid diet?

Me too!!!

Can not enough calories stall weight loss?
