  1. As of last Tuesday, I was in a 2 week stall. Even knowing it was normal and inevitable, it felt terrible. I let myself feel down for a day and then I increased my Protein intake and started resistance band training (I was exactly 8 weeks out). I also incorporated more potassium rich food to combat sodium bloat.

    Today I went in for my 2 month follow up and I’m down 12 pounds from last Tuesday, 32 since surgery, and 45 from my starting weight.

    I’m sure the stall would’ve broken on it’s own but I feel good about the adjustments and I’m enjoying short resistance workouts.

    Hoping anyone else in a stall right now feels hopeful after reading this!

    Its happening to me too its been two weeks and only 2 pounds i feel horrible i feel like it wasn't worth it im following the diet dont know what else to do or think


  2. No thigh pain other than when I was doing a lot of sitting the first few weeks. I would call your dr that could be electrolytes or something worse. As for purées I did a lot of egg salad and tuna. Now I’m on purée/soft foods and I’m trying to add more variety. Every program varies so much though on when you can have what foods. Here’s what a day of mine looks like.

    breakfast: Protein Shake
    lunch: 2-3 cups tuna poke
    snack light string cheese
    dinner Greek yogurt
    snack 1 cup ham cut up

    my daily calorie intake is anywhere from 5-700 calories I try to walk everyday the only pain I have is by my rib cage in my left side and that comes and goes. I’ve lost 20 lbs since surgery and 34 since preop diet.
    Wow great job Thank you ! I've lost 28 since surgery


  3. I had surgery April 27 and I’ve been doing well no complications so far. Anyways I’m feeling hungry a lot more now but of course I still can’t eat very big portions(2-3oz at a time) I’m getting my Proteins in and my Water. I absolutely HATE the soft food diet and can’t wait to have real food. Anyways is eating 2-3 oz about 5-6x a day ok? I see my team on Wednesday but I’m just curious what everyone else is doing/did.

    I also had mine on 4-27
    Im also feeling super hungry i start purees tomorrow. What Were u eating at puree stage plus have u experienced any leg thigh pain?
