So I woke up today and decided to weigh myself....230!!!! On May 10th I weighed 256 (10pds Water retention). Surgery day I weighed 246.
Its been a struggle but seeing the scale...makes me happy and 100% positive that I made the right decision for the surgery.
Happy Sunday to you all.

You guys we can do this!! We put ourselves through a lot to be able to lose weight. I have faith in you all....I have found faith in myself as well. I have a long journey in front of me as I am only 11 days post-op. I will have set backs and I am sure I will have moments of WTF was I thinking. Then I stop and think....my blood sugar has been normal since the surgery. I am only on 1 medication for it. Pretty soon I may be able to get off my blood pressure medicine and the more I lose the better my body is going to feel. #yougotthis.

Oikos only has Stevia extract. I agree about the Fage though...I love it with fresh blueberries. 😊

Awesome. Thank you.

I keep telling myself...this is a choice you made in order to be healthy and live longer. My biggest fear is dying at 60 like my dad did. It is sometimes an obsessive thought I have and that is only 15 years away... I want to be healthy, take less meds, feel comfortable in my skin and happy with my life.

Just wondering if there are veggies you can't eat anymore. I am a big salad junkie and am worried I may not get to enjoy them anymore. Many have said it just depends on what your body can handle... curious to hear your experiences.

That sounds really yummy. I am going to try that. 😊

I love the Premier Protein shakes. banana is my favorite. The chocolate is good too. I also happen to like the way medicine tastes (my husband find me and this very odd lol). I usually put the 4 oz over ice. They truly are best ice cold. Luck to you

I am 9 days out and still tire easily. I went to the grocery store for some Soup today and filled up the tank for my husband. By the time I got home my side was hurting and I felt like I ran a marathon. Go easy...your body needs time to heal. 😊

I don't remember posting this! LOL.

That's crazy about divorcing the food Network. I have watched it every day since my surgery (9 days) and nothing sounds good. Thank god...I don't think I could get by without that darn channel.

I have both of those as well plus a few more autoimmune diseases just for fun. [emoji854] My Menieres has been a lot worse since my surgery 6 weeks ago. I'm hoping when I lose weight my balance will be better! [emoji1] How are you doing? I'm hoping I'll have hair someday, but at this point more is falling out. Best wishes! [emoji255]
I have RA, Fibromyalgia, Diabetes and neuropathy (many more as well). Everything is the same with the exception of the diabetes. My numbers have been ranging from 70-160. That is excellent for me. I am only taking one pill for diabetes right now per surgeons orders. Luck to you.

May 12th - 181.3
I think I hit another stall. Things are moving slow. Sorry I forgot to post last Friday. Stepped up the workouts this week to try to break out of the 180s!
You can do it!!!

Hey all. I am 9 days post op. At check in I weighed 246 pounds. 3rd day post op at home weighed 256. Totally freaked out. I have been busting my ass to get in all the liquid requirements from my surgeon. Peeing like crazy and figured I was mostly hydrated. I weighed myself yesterday and I was 243. Things are going in the right direction. Did anyone else experience this or am I an anomaly?
Over all I am feeling good. When I am up to long my right side starts hurting. Not sure if it's gas or the two puncture sites. After I sit I am fine. So I get up and walk often...with pain. I figure it will go away. I will ask my surgeon at my follow up appt on the 23rd
Hope you are all well!!

My stomach is round too!! I was upset the other day because I got on the scale and I was up almost 10 pounds from the day of surgery. I haven't eaten a darn thing and haven't had enough calories to justify the weight gain. Others on here have said retaining Fluid is normal so I haven't freaked out too bad. It's scary going in for WLS and within a week weighing more... I'm looking forward to the puréed stage of food. Can't wait for applesauce!! and cream of chicken soup!!

I am 5 days post op and am feeling pretty good. I have a lot of abdominal gas, a stomach that gurgles like crazy 😂😂 my husband heard it this morning and said it sounds like a volcano erupting. The pain med is controlling the pain and overall I feel pretty darn good. Looking forward to eating solid food again...

Regret
in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Posted
Had my first follow up today. Told the surgeon the first week I had nothing but regret. Now I am doing much better. It sucks that our whole life has to change in order to be healthy and we can't eat like we used to. My surgeon said with time I will be able to eat...small amounts and only things I can tolerate lol. But you know what?? I am slowly getting healthy. My blood sugar has been below 150 for the past two weeks on one Medication...my numbers usually run around 200... have faith.
