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.

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 🖤

Be patient and be kind to yourself. We all get so hung up on the number on the scale.
have you had any non-scale victories? Do your clothes fit better? Do you feel better physically? Hang in there- those numbers will change!

Hello everyone! My name is Kaja and I would love to join . I had my surgery Aug 7th. I can't say I'm as luck as TammyA with hardly any pain but I feel great . One incision is being a brat but other than that I'm excited!!! Let's be excited together!!!

I felt super week up until about a week and a half after my surgery. The key is to take lots of breaks and walk for shorter intervals more times a day.

Okay now I'm sure hat you should prob not be looking for loop holes for candy but.. if you can have sugar free popsicles and Jello is it okay to have sugar free gummie bears? I feel like it's safer than sugar free hard candies. I feel like if you swallow a whole candy by accident it might cause some damage. If you swallow a whole gummie bear it will dissolve. It's also not compromising the clear thing . Im not saying it a whole bag but ... what are your thoughts? Also, I have never had a sweet tooth in my whole life and 4 days pre op and I'm about to eat substitute sweetener packers!!! What is going on?!

Ps I was making my bfs dinner and I smelt garlic and almost threw up everywhere. I used to love garlic

I just had some strained Pasta figioli Soup and I guess the thickness from
The bean juice was very helpful. I don't feel like raging anymore. Thanks for the encouragement

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.

My surgery was scheduled today!!! August 29th! All they said was no alcohol or aspirin two weeks before. I have not been dieting but now that I have a date I eating about 1400-1500 calories a day so I can lose a little before the surgery. I've only counted calories for 2 days and I'm starving. Not emotional, boredom or out-of-habit hungry BUT Real body hunger that's distracting and annoying! For those who have had the surgery, are you a lot less hungry?

I was also hungry shortly after surgery, despite being allowed to eat by day 4. Turns out my acid reducers weren't working and it wasn't really hunger but acid I was feeling.

Kaja,
Down 12 pounds is great! Your pizza soup sounds yummy too

Hey!
I'm doing good. Went to my first check up. I'm -12 lbs . I think I'm gonna make pizza Soup tonight. I have this organic Tomato sauce with veggies gonna add a parm sprinkle and basil . Good to go!!!

Yea, no!!! Gose is my favorite beer but that bothered my stomach before surgery. Lol that probably wasn't a good idea. Good to know though! Sorry you had to deal with that. I was rolling around last night 2 days op about to pass out from gas pain.

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

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

I tried to talk myself out of it like 6 xs. I honestly think it's a lot of not wanting to make changes. For me food was never a friend but I always was in love with the flavors and the presentation and the culture behind the food. Eating and dining became a hobby for me. I didn't want to let that go. Not to mention I enjoy drinking. So now I have lost both of my hobbies. I feel much better. My blood pressure is already way low after only 5 days post op. I'm hungry but this too shall pass. Give yourself a chance to be a brand new healthy person. ️

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

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.

Hey everyone!

After thinking of weight loss surgery for over 2 years, I finally made the call last week for an appointment. They were able to get me in today! I am so excited but nervous as heck!

I am needing a sleep study 😞 and an endoscope test. I do get to pass the 3 month dietary restriction due to my insurance requirements for BMI. It sounds like I need to lose 25 lbs before I can schedule surgery and possibly another 25 on the preop diet. (Which I am very nervous about failing).

I broke down last week and told my husband, who encouraged me to make the call. I am so thankful he is on my side but I do not plan on telling any other family members. Please tell me I'm not the only one out there like this??

That's a good point. I haven't even made it to the Protein at home. They gave me some in the hospital. Now I'm Drinking tumaric tea to help with swelling . My bp med is a diuretic so I have to be super careful .

I hope you feel better. I was sleeved on July 26th and didn't experience gas pains and had very little nausea.
