    Numbness everywhere

    I had weird feelings in my legs too, but it was only my legs from what I remember although ATM I have a numb feeling in my back but I suspect that's from an old back injury. When you say numb does it feel numb when you touch the area or is it just a sensation similar to numbness? My legs felt normal to touch but weird/ numb when I walked. It passed after a few months

    eating and drinking

    Basically you can't meaning you will physically not be able to do it. In saying that some people can, I can take small sips during directly after eating but any more I get uncomfortable. I can't eat while in a moving car after eating I get bad wind and have to burp myself lol. I can sip while eating nibble food and I can have cake with a coffee but that's not a great idea calorie wise.

    Foot shrinkage :O

    Same, I even had an assistant in a shoe shop describe my foot as narrow 🤣 me ! Old fat foot that had a wide foot now narrow?? Who would have thought. Even wearing heels is doable now.

    Did I eat too much?

    I think some of us imagine after surgery we will only ever be able to eat a few mouth fulls at a time but the reality is you should be able to eat a normal serving something and I don't mean the giant portions you when eating out. So eating a serving of a frozen meal is considered a normal size serving

    6 weeks post op ZERO WEIGHT LOSS AND DEPRESSED

    Yeah I wonder, no way I could eat a cup at that stage and no way I could eat that many calories either. Those sorts of calories are what you have to maintain your weight not loose

    6 weeks post op ZERO WEIGHT LOSS AND DEPRESSED

    You must be doing some intense workouts to burn that many calories are you sure you should be doing that this early after major surgery? Burning almost the same as your in take is not a great idea. If your figures are correct you should be loosing weight fast. Can I ask how you are measuring your calorie intake and what you are burning during exercise?

    thanks for the updates and pics
  10. I don't think you are talking about the same thing,well I don't think I know you aren't 🤔
  11. I have a friend of a friend didn't do well after having a bypass it was reversed and then they sleeved her and she did better. (not sure what the problem was but must have been bad enough for them to revisit surgery)
  12. Well he was lucky then, it's a hard situation for you to be in, you don't want him to cause himself damage and you want him to take the surgery and the reason he had it seriously. Hopefully he will get better, it's a huge adjustment. He could be in the denial stages many of us go through a grieving process which sounds strange but it's part of the process. We grieve the loss of our best friend food. Maybe a councillor could help
  13. well he will know all about it moving through the stages to quick, he may have pain etc maybe let him find out the hard way. sometimes when people wont listen its the only way P.S wondering how he went with his bacon ? lets hope not so good then he will realise why he needs to stick to the plan.

    Slowing down?

    Feeling discouraged

    I agree with the others you should be able to get it done as you suffer a medical condition. Are you being treated by a specialist? if not maybe look into that and have them document how long you have had the condition and that surgery is necessary. Good Luck

    6 weeks post op ZERO WEIGHT LOSS AND DEPRESSED

    But you have lost a total of 21 pounds in 6 weeks so that is normal and good, I didn't loose that much.you will have weeks where you don't loose much it's part of the healing process and the journey in general

    Frustrated

    Hang in there, up to the first 6 months is the hardest. I went through a terrible time in the early days now it seems like it didn't even happen (the hard days) you will be fine. I cried multiple times a day in the first 5 months. I even researched stomach transplants lol 😆 in the first 2 months. It gets better don't forget your hormones will be all over the place too. I found my favourites and stuck to the mash potato and gravy was a favourite kids yoghurt pouches, powerade, cloudy pear juice is great to. Big hugs 🫂 hang in there 🤗
