  1. Don't worry this does happen you will not be losing weight everyday or weekly sometimes it does stop I had mine done in April 2016 and I was at 5 months out and I had inly lost like 40lbs I thought the same thing it didnt work but my Dr kept telling me your fine it takes up to 18mths for you to loose most of your weight so dont worry or stress about it will keep going down.

  2. I am almost 4 weeks post surgery. Will be doing soft food this week. My doc says no drinking 30 mins before, during, after meals. meat and scrambled eggs were painful and often came back. It does get better as time goes on. I discovered making ground lean hamburger cooked, and then put through a chopper,in small pot add can of rotel tomatoes, can of kidney Beans, cumin. Chili powder. After blan foods this chili tasted good to me. Thought I could eat some later but my 23 old son apparently liked it too.

    Cottage cheese was something I could eat without puree ing it. I added fruit cups in Water, (of course drained) to change it up.

    Did you see the recipes on this site? If you click on upper left corner of this app.

    Its all trial and error at this point. Hope I help a little.

    I do appreciate the recipes the only thing is I can't afford the bariatric stuff so I have to eat whatever I can I'm on disability and I live on a fixed income so it's kind of hard to buy bariatric stuff but thank you very much I appreciate your input

    I'm on a budget too so I really don't have a variety of foods to eat or to go get the Protein shakes they are so expensive so I basically have eggs veggies and drinks like G-2 or Water that's about it.

  3. Well I have did try the egg.and forget it, it made me miserable I threw it all up, I've also tried shredded chicken and that's OK but a littke to dry, yogurts don't taste the same as before the only thing I do like is cottage cheese and I've been making myself fresh fruit smoothies with like papaya pineapple pears strawberries and blueberries and almond milk unsweetened and lots of Water Ive tries different Protein shakes and they do no go down they get stuck what I also eat smoothly is the maruchan noodles with my own seasoning and I add squash potatoes and carrots that's about it I can't eat anything else. I'm really stuck with these new foods to me I know I'm not taking in the correct Protein cause I can only have a little at a time but I also still have a lot of lower abdomen pain and lots of back back. I am 18 days post op.

  4. Listen

    most of us if not ALL have the same temptations while cooking good food for our families but we have to resist it for our safety!

    I dont want to scare you but my own cosine had the surgery and did what you did only 6 days after surgery, she ended up at the ER for leaking then to a septic shock and died later on that day ...

    :,(

    So please be careful, you don't want your kids to live without a mom, IT IS THAT SERIOUS.

    Well thanks I will not try any more tempting foods

  5. My surgery was April 6 and my original date to return is May 9 but when I went to see my surgeon last Friday he said OK ur ready on April 25 and I was like no I can't even drink my fluids still or do the Protein shakes so he moved it up to may 2 and he will go from there on my next appt he also gave me an Rx to get IV fluids because I am dehydrated and I have don't that but my Fluid intake is probably 2 16oz Water bottles per day if that.

  6. Hi I am 12 days post op from surgery and I have already cheated with some fries with ranch yesterday and today the toppings of a pizza slice I know this is horrible and a definate no no but I could not resist when everyone is eating this in front of me, I don't know what to do now after I already ate it but I am so tempted to eat other than. Water because the shakes do not go down they are to thick and my Dr told me to get Isopure but I have not gone to go get it yet to try them. This is not a good thing to do but now what is there to do, I need help.
