    Is my weight loss okay or slow?

    I feel your frustration, I also have had very little contact with my surgeon and he has even pushed out my 3 months check up. I had my surgery on March 15th and I have lost nowhere what I expected to lose. Of course I’m happy I’m defo losing weight but I feel I’m behind where I should be. I spoke with a friend of mine who is a surgeon in a different field and the actually told me that losing slow and steady 1) is healthier for the body and 2) is much better for skin shrinking, meaning it’s better at preventing excess skin. So keep going, your doing great 😊
  2. So from 1day post op I could not tolerate any of the protein drinks. They suggested using protein powder and that was the same. So I had to try to get protein in my own way. I started adding lentils and chickpeas to my soups etc. Then I wanted to leave the soup more puréed then liquid and progresses from there. I’m now 3 weeks post op and all I want is a salad ( Ha ) I am now eating soft foods with some lumps but I feel good and have had no problems. I just hope I am not over eating because I haven’t felt full really or had any problems. I can manage 1/2 a cup to 1 cup per meal ? Anyone else have this problem ?

    Oh yes, my surgery is booked for March 15th. Struggling with the pre op diet if I’m honest. But I’m getting there. Good luck to everyone this month 🤗
