took me three weeks

My weight is stalled for the past 1.5 weeks. Anyone having this issue?

i used rubbing alcohol

I am three weeks out. I am on purees stage. Mostly doing protein shake and mashed potato. Feel like Ill never eat again lol

I am three weeks out. Can manage liquids and some mashed potatoe. When can I eat real food?

Follow your preop diet dont cheat. Walk your butt off as soon as you can after you wake up in hospital-helps with gas. Realize you will be super tired easily in the first few weeks. I am 10 days post op and tired very fast. Stick with the recommended supplements and diet.

Im worried that some of you are rushing to pureed too soon. Any issues? I am sticking to this 14 day liquid even though it sucks. Want to heal ok.

I have had diarrhea for several days. I decided to stop drinking milk/ products and switch to soy milk (some research shows you can develop a temp lactose intolerance after surgery). I also bought probiotic supplement. I also started biotin for thinning hair.

I was sleeved on June 17. Lost 35 since I started the journey in Feb getting approved for it. Lost 8 lbs on pre op diet and 12 lbs in a week since surgery. I am off work for 4 weeks. My energy is getting better daily. I am noticing hair thinning already. I hate the protein powder I bought so I ordered some online called syntrax which is like kool aid. I am from Canada and ordered is online from the US. Syntrax - Nectar (36 Servings) from Nashua Nutrition.

I had my surgery two days ago and was sent home today. I am worried about getting enough protein/water.

My surgery is tomorrow am June 17. Waited two years since being referred. Had a laband 5 years ago which was a failure. Cant wait to lose weight! Im down 25 since I started on my own.

I was diagnosed with pcos at age 20. I have gained weight, have ammenorhea, high bp, high cholesterol, did infertility to get my twins. It is the only goal I have not achieved in my life-weight loss. I tried a lap band 5 yrs ago which was a disaster. Tomorrow I get my sleeve and begin a new journey. waited two years for this day.

I am having surgery tomorrow June 17th. Been waiting two years since my dr referral. Cant wait!

I live in Canada. Am doing the preop assessment for bariatric surgery which involves lots of tests, meeting with professionals (OT, dietitian, exercise guy) and being approved for it. Its covered by govt. I am opting for the sleeve. I had a failed lapband 5 years ago. Diagnosed with PCOS at 20. Metformin didn't help me conceive. I did IUI+injections and have 7 year old twins. PCOS has affected my life is so many ways-no periods ever, facial hair, depression, obesity, high blood pressure, now high cholesterol which has affected my self esteem. I decided to get the sleeve to put an end to obesity and prevent diabetes. I have lost 15 lbs in 2 months on my own by eating right and exercising. Would love to see how other PCOSers do.
