Looking for people to follow who keep daily journals of what they eat. Please let me know your account name if I can follow you, and I will send you a request. Also just learning myfitnesspal so sorry in advance if I do something that doesn't make since???? thank you!

I was sleeved on 2/2. I lost 10lbs on the week long preop diet, then 10 lbs the week after surgery, and I've stalled ever since. Not lost one more lb. I'm getting in quite a bit of protein and usually 60 grams a day. I do very well with the shakes, scrambled eggs, cottage cheese etc...however, I I don't get near what I need to for my water intake. Maybe that's it. It tastes ok, I just can't get it down. I've not thrown up one time, never been nauseated, and had a great recovery. I'm very thankful for all that and just wondering it this is a stall or maybe something else. Also, I get that 20 lbs in a month is awesome!! Just worried thats it????Any thoughts?

Thanks for the encouraging words:) We got this!

Thank you! I'm sure it's normal, just hard to eat this little and not see the scale move at all. I'm sure it will get in gear and we probably shouldn't worry about the dumb scale anyway:) Good Luck to you, I'm sure you will do great!

Congrats!!! That's awesome????

I would like to join. Cw is 242 and goal is 227. 15lbs

Congrats! Glad all is going well

So far nothing has bothered me. While that may sound wonderful, kind of worries me. Will just have to be careful and chose wisely.

Yay????????????

I must have a very strict dr. I'm not supposed to have beef or pork for 6 months????

I don't do well with narcotics and I discussed that with the dr's prior to surgery. I took Toradol for pain in the hospital. I did not take any additional pain meds when I left. I didn't need them, not even Tylenol.

I had two c-sections and the sleeve was much less painful and a very easy recovery for me. I didn't even take pain meds after the first day.

I bet it's just the swelling is still bad and as it goes down you will tolerate more. Maybe mine didn't stay swollen long and that's the difference. I sure hope you feel better soon though.

Congrats! I'm sure you will do wonderful :-)

Oh no! I'm kind of opposite. I'm worried I'm getting too much down and it's not going to work for me. I have three protein shakes a day with skim milk, sf pudding cups, sf fudgesicles, unsweet tea, water. I get full but never nauseous or anything. I hope you start being able to get stuff down! Hugs

I sent you a friend request on myfitnesspal. Hope that's ok

I was clear liquids for the first week. Then added full liquid the second and the third week will be soft foods.

I'm living off of sipping decaf tea, sf pudding, and sf fudgecicles. Next week get to start scrambled eggs etc...it's going to get better by the week! I've been kind of down too but we got this

Sorry took so long to reply. I'm still on a clear liquid diet till Sunday and then full liquid???? Glad ur better and able to eat! I only have one incision. They went through my belly button. I don't think I knew they were doing that but it's awesome! Hope you are all doing ok today!

Me too! The gas pains are awful I know walking is good and I have been but no relief yet. I'm sure it takes time. Hope you're still good today and get to go home

Yay!! So happy to hear! I feel great. Came home today, and so far no nausea and tolerating all my liquids. I hope you get to go home tomorrow. It's kind of exhausting, but being in your own bed is nice. I slept for three hours when I got home Lol

Oh no!!! I hope you get better soon. I'm sorry to hear this. Hopefully you will be back on your feet soon. I will be thinking of you and send up some prayers. Hugs

How are you today? I'm doing great with mine and hoping you are too!

Till I get my sleeve I'm nervous, excited, and ready!

I'm nervous and excited too! Lots of emotions today. I think we will both have an awesome recovery and join the losers bench together
