cairomama

Not great some days and some days are no problem. With the liquids from the soups I eat for every meal I think I am getting 60 Or so oz a day. Some days I can finish a 1.5 litre bottle no problem, some days I can barely get down more than a few hundred mls

I have that throat thing too. Worried it might be GERD. I see the surgeon for a follow up this week will see what he says. Other than that, I am 27 lbs down in 4 weeks as if today! Bought a dress today to wear to a friend's wedding this weekend. I was a size 22 when my nephew hot married in Oct, bought a size 16/18 today!!!

Just wanted to share for those of us stuck in a stall early out. Was sleeved 18/12 . Starting weight 119 kg day of surgery. Lost 8 kg on the first week and a half then only 1 kilo the next week. Bounced between 111 and 112 kg since and was feeling really despondent as I have been following post p.o. instructions to a tee! 2 days ago I took some advice from this forum and called my NUT and she told me to up my calories from 500-600 a day to 700-800. It was hard to get any more food in (still on mushies) but I started adding a tbsp of unflavoured protein powder to everything I ate and today I am down to 109 kg. I'm hoping this sticks!

I'm so relieved to know that I am not the only one in this boat! I was sleeved 18/12 So I'm just at 3 weeks post op. I'm down 25 lbs since surgery but stalled as soon as I switched to pureed foods. I lost nothing most of last week and was feeling really pissed off about it. This morni g I weighed myself and was so relieved to see I was down 2 lbs, I really really hope I'm pulling out of this stall!

Me too! We are on out way out for New Year's eve and at 25 lbs thinner I feel like a million bucks! Bring on 2018!

Totally normal! Go easy, be gentle to your new tummy. It gets better from here, promise.

Glad I am not the only one! I'm down 21 lbs since VSG on the 18th of Dec.but no loss in 3 days...

Hey! So how are you doing 11 days out?

Good luck! It's going to be a busy couple of days, take it easy on yourself!

I was done on the 18th as well!

Me!

Was sleeved 12/18 and also enjoying the little wins! Was down 12 lbs at my one week follow up appointment, that was really motivating!

I'm a week out and I hear you about the exhaustion. Yesterday was tough cooking for family (all my favourite things!) But just the thought of damaging my new stomach was enough to keep me at bay. One thing about your post- You are not hungry. I know it feels like you are but you truly aren't. I was in tears days 3-5 because I literally felt like my stomach was eating itself and the pangs were so bad I thought I was starving. Turns out I wasn't take enough Acid blocker. Surgeon set me straight and the pangs literally went away in an hour. You can do This!

Me! I'm scheduled to go in early on the 18th Dec for sleeve... Would LOVE someone to stay in touch with going through the same thing! Sent from my SM-A720F using BariatricPal mobile app
