Building muscle will make you toggle back and forth. Change up your diet a little and it will start to move. Congrats on your weight loss!

LaurynLove my dietitian told me to eat at least 1000- 1100 calories a day. And to drink 64 oz of water I get about 850 calories in on a good day and 56 oz. And that is tough. Also I work out 45 mins to an hour a day so the food gives me energy. And I am 5 weeks post-op. I eat every two hours I can say with me eating like this I am seeing the scale move.

I did the same thing the other morning I had a boiled egg and all of sudden I started sweating and a lot of saliva in my mouth. I started gagging over and over again nothing really came up but I felt so bad for most of the day. I had to take a pill for nausea. I said that I am so done with eggs I have tried scrabbled and boiled.

Feeling the same way scared to eat because it's like I feel it falling in my stomach. Sorry I am being extra??

Welcome! How are you feeling?

Ellen531 did you do plain oatmeal or flavored?

Thanks ladies! I went to the store today to get stuff to make Ricotta bake and I will try some string cheese and oatmeal.

CurvyMom I have had Greek yogurt I can tolerate that it’s the meat I am scared to have.

Ellens531 I have eaten applesauce I just can’t purée meat. That seems so disgusting to me. How did you eat the chicken salad and tuna did you purée?

Ladies I will be officially 3 weeks post op tomorrow. I am so over broth my surgeon told me to try an egg and I can do scrabbles but not boiled mashed up. I am scared to introduce new stuff I know I have too. Anyone that is at this stage what have you tried?

I am almost 3 weeks post op and doing well besides that I am getting my fluids in good. I also walked about 2 miles today.

Treza make sure you do everything your surgeon and team tells you. And take one day at a time you will do well. I had surgery on 1/15 and I have no regrets I am doing well and healing well. The first couple of days were rough because my allergies flared up and I was sneezing and coughing I thought I was going to die. But I am doing so much better!

I had surgery, on the 15th and today I felt the same way I just wanted to chew something. I have my first follow up visit on Thursday. I will be happy to move on to the next stage.

Congrats to all that was sleeved today welcome to the losers bench!

Yes it looks awful.

Ladies, I have a question I am 6 days out and I have lost 8lbs so far. And it is getting better by the day but I have recently broken out in a rash all over my body. Have any of you experience this after surgery? I called my surgeon’s office today because I am not itching just wanted to see if this is normal.

Congrats and welcome to the losers bench!

Ladies, anyone that has the surgery recently when does the soreness and burning at the incisions not hurt socbad? I am doing good with my fluids. But stomach hurts when blow my nose or cough.

Same here. I am very sore in my stomach.

You will be fine I am 2 days post-op and I am really sore today but I know it will get better. Hang in there!

Don't double think it I am 2 days post-op and so glad I did it. I have a great team that is taking of me. And that has made it a great experience my surgeon is the Best!

I am doing good a little pain in the large incision but over all not as bad as I expected to be. I eating ice chips and tired from the medication.

Surgery twin!

Ladies pray for me I am headed to the hospital. Next stop losers bench!!!
