Not Losing After Moving To Mushies



Recommended Posts

I got moved to mushies a week ago and have not lost anything. Is that normal? I am only getting 700-800 calories a day. I'm not hungry. I eat exactly what they tell me to eat and only one cup of food per meal (lunch and supper) Breakfast is usually one egg. Any ideas?

Give your body a chance to adjust to the new foods. Drink your Water, get in some walking and the weight will come off. Remember slow and steady wins the race.

How's your veggie intake? Lots of bean/ cheese mushies can slow you down. Mush some spinach or zucchini and add it to some mushed chicken with a little broth. Keep things moving with your intestines too.

Remember that wl is mathematical. Cal in- cal burn= wl.

It is not possible to eat 800 cal high qual foods and remain obese. Just be patient!

Minime I asked if I could have some veggies and they said not yet but I can have Beans and potatoes... Makes no sense. I wish I could have some zucchini that was one I asked about specifically. All the mushies they told me are high protien items like beans, cheese, Peanut Butter, yogurt etc but no veggies. :(

Well then, don't worry about weight loss. That will come later.

I actually gained a few pounds when I went to mushies so I wouldn't worry about it. After about a week or so I started losing again. Hang in there!

You are still in your healing stage, so just stick to your Drs orders and things will kick in. The first 6wks are for healing, not so much weight loss. Try not to compare yourself with others, you're on your own journey.

Things will kick in,if you follow your instructions, I promise!

Maddib76 that is really strange because on the diet I got from my surgeon, I am not allowed Beans, potatoes, rice, bread or potatoes BUT I am allowed over cooked vegetables. I'm wondering why your doctor said no vegetables.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
