Almost 3 weeks out and only lost 9 lbs
mcmom2016 replied to laura1116's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm three weeks out too and experiencing the same thing. I've lost a total of 10 lbs since surgery and nothing in the last week and a half. I'm supposed to be on puréed food, but went back to clear liquid diet because I'm not losing. I'm also using my elliptical 40mins per day. I'm tracking everything in my fitness pal - I've been consuming 75g Protein and well over 80 oz Water. No more than 200 calories in a day - and still not losing. I'm starting to get depressed.

Is my mind as strong as I thought?
mcmom2016 replied to acm22_'s topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I was/am right with you. My surgery was the 13th. I was really wanting to eat. I know I was not hungry and it was all in my head. The first three days were super rough. I was finally able to talk myself out of that mindset and I was doing a lot better. Today I'm down again though. I've been weighing myself every day, which I know I'm not supposed to, and today I was up 1 pound. How in the hell??? I was told I could switch over to the full liquid diet on Thursday, but I've been sticking with the clear liquid diet just because I don't want to consume any more calories. And to me it's not worth it if I'm not able to actually eat something. So today is rough. What if I made the wrong choice and this doesn't work??? I've tried 1 million things over the years… what if this ends up being just one of those things? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

mcmom2016 replied to Shauny85's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
Help!! I'm on clear liquid today and tomorrow. I have the isopure powder - unflavored. I mixed it with Powerade and it was so horrible I literally threw up. Any thoughts on what to mix it with to make it tolerable? I've literally had nothing today except for Water and power aide Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

I've been drinking the Celebrate shakes (power). Seriously delish!!! Also, I've been having horrible headaches, foggy brain and feeling week. I've noticed this has all gone away with taking the B12 sublingual and also drinking more Powerade (any drink with electrolytes would do).

Mines the 13th too. Today is day 3 of the pre-op diet and it is soooo hard. Today, my boys wanted homemade spaghetti and meatballs it's ROUGH!! My nurse told me if you cheat on your pre-op and your liver is not small enough, or if you have food in your stomach, they will not do the surgery. They only know that after they start surgery though. So you'll have to pay for the anesthesia twice. That's been motivational for me! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I think your doctor should have gotten insurance approval ahead of time, unless your ins is not covering. Either way, have they not discussed payment yet? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I start my pre-op diet the 30th. Meanwhile, I'm eating like a crazy lady until then. Trying to get it all in before I have to live on Water and spit for two weeks. Tell me I'm not alone in this Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
