Reboot?
The same thing has happened to me. I was thinking about getting the revision surgery. I'd rather not go under the knife again. I know that you can do the diet from the first month to shrink your stomach again. Im m not sure how effective it is though.

Can't stop crying
Sweetheart! Stop. It's okay. Next week your gonna prob lose 10 lbs. I felt like that too. I stepped on the scale and I gained 4 lbs. you will retain water especially near your lady time. As long as you aren't eating pasta,rice, fried foods and a ton of carbs the way will come off. Do yourself a favor and stop weighing yourself! Everything will work out . I'm down around 30 at 46 days. When is the last time you lost that much weight? That's what my surgeon asked me. I was like ... yea you're right.. in due time ?

Hey, we're you cleared to workout? I can't even go to the gym yet. I can walk on the treadmill but I can't lift yet. Weight training is mega important. You are gonna lose weight regardless don't go crazy and be patient you are doing awesome. I had my surgery on the 7th and I'm down 18 so 21 is awesome . Let yourself heal. Don't be discouraged ! Kaja

Before surgery? Oh yea your 100% hungry. After? You will think you are hungry but you won't be. I thought I was hungry 3-6 days post op. Then I realized I was bored to death. The hunger went away. Now I have to remind myself to eat but that doesn't mean my tastebuds died. I made 3 diff kinda of pulled pork, little cakes, and a cucumber salad last night for a party. All I wanted to do was smash my face into it. Lol so keep in mind your brain talks to you when your stomach is silent. Kaja

I'm really hungry
Yea, I wasn't really hungry either I was head hungry. Now I have to remind myself to eat but I want to eat food. Not soup. Food. lol I'll take it smooshed or whateverZ I'm having issues with slimy saliva all the time. If I think about eating something it happens sometimes. That can't be good. I've always been easily nauseated. Hopefully that nauseous feeling will go away.

I wouldn't say that I was sluggish. I was definitely tired and needed rest. The best day I was awake and aware and wanting Tom move around. Day three I was doing minor exercises with 5lb weights. Everyone is different . If you feel tired. Sleep. Don't be nervous. After you will thank yourself

Protein Shake
First day of full liquids. I had 1 scoop on peanut butter chocolate whey protein with cinnamon and unsweetened cashew milk. I got about 7 ounces of it down m. I feel like that's a lot . Also, I made the mistake of taking bari melts chewable on an empty stomach. Don't do that lol

Gosh! We must be on the same wave length because I only have a couple hours left until full liquids. I just had some tomato juice spiced up like a Bloody Mary... ummm first couple sips felt like I swallowed lava. lol I think the sip might have been to big but that's what I get for not just waiting.

Wait you should be able to have strained broth soup. The broth is a little thicker because of the bean but it's just chicken broth. Gotta get creative. lol not to mention I went out to eat with my bf and it was either that or drink water and watch him eat. I made sure I didn't eat anything solid or any pasta. I would steer clear of beans for gas purposes.

Honestly, I haven't weighed myself. For me it's not really about the number. It's about the way I feel and my bp and quality of life. I'm to worries about not being dehydrated and going crazy because the only thing I have chewed is popsicles. Sunflower seeds are my thing. The shucking and spitting of the shell and without that comfort snack I've been cleaning everything lol

Also, a little Parmesan sprinkle on broth makes it 200xs better
