I had the Mirena a few years ago and had it removed becuz I gained 30 pounds in one month!!! You're fortunate to have it AFTER surgery!

I'm so sorry and so happy for response at the same time... Going outta town and eating weird food really can throw you off terribly... I kinda thought that was it but it's been almost a week... I'm still thrown off... Best of luck to both of us!!! ????

I'm seven weeks out... 41 pounds lost... And now suddenly for almost a week, I'm nauseated ALL THE TIME!!! It started when I went out of town last weekend and back to work Tuesday and I feel life crap, exhausted, throwing up... Basically catching hell and I don't know why???!!!! I know I've had to eat out but I still try to be careful of what I eat, and now I barely eat cuz I feel so badly... Didn't have these issues in the beginning... Any one with thoughts? Or been through this ¿

They told me no fruit at all with a peel... So I just leave it off altogether except Water melon cuz that's like taking in Fluid and is very low calorie...

I took a before and after photograph. It is really amazing when you put them side by side. http://www.breadandbutterscience.com/Operation.jpg What a difference 6 months makes.

Metamucil probiotic!! Has me going everyday now!

Probiotics (I got the one from Metamucil people) seemed to get me past my plateau and now I'm losing steadily... Surgery may 27th 2015

Not sure why it happens... After actually maked me gag now and wants to come back up, food tastes different which makes it hard to figure out what to eat! Hot wings are still good though...lol ???? I can only eat four but it's a nice treat every couple of weeks!

Great job!! ????

I lost twenty pounds by my two check up... It will come and stay falling off! My surgery was may 27 and I'm at 35 pounds now... Stay with it!

Orange juice made me throw up immediately ! Surgeon said too much sugar! So I'm scared to death of ANYTHING sweet or with sugar... When do we get a tolerance for it?

50 more pounds to go to first goal... Stretch goal is 75 pounds

I forgot to mention I started taking a probiotoc by Metamucil and it seemed to break my stall!!!

Thanks so much!!!

Orange juice made me throw up immediately... Other things have just made me feel horrible like a hard boiled egg that didn't go down well and broccoli was horrible ... No worries from potato.. So it seems you have to listen to your body

I have... And dizziness after bending over and standing up... Turned out it was my blood pressure medicine.. Don't need it like that anymore

I eat celery cooked and raw (chopped finely) and salads, string Beans ... Can't do broccoli...haven't tried fruits except watermelon

@@Spiceyfrog I had my surgery on the 9th also. Do u know when stage 4 starts?

YES!!! My surgeon is tough as nails and says it's ok! But listen to your body and it responds... I think is die without my HOTSAUCE...lol ????

I got a exercise ball and sit and bounce in it while watching tv... Low impact, cheap, gets you sweating... But walking works as well I just use the ball when stuck indoors ..

I lost approx 35 pounds from my two week pre surgery liquid diet to 2 1/2 weeks post op, I'm now approx 5 weeks post op and have a total of 38 pounds, I've lost literally nothing in the past two weeks...

I am strict with my diet, I can only get about 900 to 1100 calories daily, mostly Protein, minimal sugars, no sweets....

My wife suggested I try and increase calories, I did for a couple of days and actually gained two or three pounds. I walk at least 10,000 steps daily, some days I've done over 16,000...

I am extremely discouraged and starting to feel as though I made a huge mistake... Any body else experience this...

My do those says don't worry, but I'm starting to...

Right there with you! I had RNY done one May 27th and lost 13 pounds the first week. But I've been stalled for 2 weeks straight now. I feel the same way. Why did I have this surgery done if I'm not going to lose anything?! I am a little over 3 weeks post op.

My surgery was may 27 also! You will make it! Are you exercising?

I have never had any bad symptoms from eating. I actually went through a period where I questioned whether or not they did the surgery at all. Just chew well, eat slowly and listen to your body. You will be great!

I actually thought the same thing!!! I wondered if they really did the surgery...lol but I'm losing weight and eating pretty much regular foods so they must have done something... 30 pounds lost in three weeks as of today!

I got past the stall.. I think eating watermelon helped... Seriously... It's been 3 weeks and four days and lost 30 pounds as of today

Is easy... You can't have any food! The good news is it gets easier as you go along... Stay focused and follow your plan... I'm the weeks out and I've lost 30 pounds as of today!

I'm three weeks and four days out... Decided to post pics for other newbies like me for encouragement
