Congrats. Gosh I go tomorrow for my 2nd po and it appears that I've only lost 13 lbs since my pre op on 6/2. I'm so happy for you but what an I doing wrong?

Everyone loses different girl dont get discouraged!!! I am staying away from as much carbs as I can. All the full liquid diet is, is mostly carbs!!! Doin yogurt, Soup blended (no noodkes in it), and Jello. Boring but im just tryin think about how in 3 wks I can eat solids !

Some people retain fluids badly after surgery from the IVs, meandlittledog. I only lost 11 pounds in first 10 days and weighed 366. Very disappointed but I was retaining Water badly and took a while to get rid of it no matter what I drank or ate. Don't feel bad. It will come off.

That's great Tamz! Such an incentive isn't it?

I am with you. I had my sugery on June 5th and have only lost 4 lbs. I did lose 30 lbs with my pre-op diet, but I feel like the surgery isn't working and I sure am not eating much these days.

So funny that we were both sleeved on the same day, and ironic that I am eating refried Beans for dinner as we speak! I like your enchilada sauce idea too :)

I also didnt think of adding shredded cheese! Gotta love this support group :)

PS I hope I dont stall .. I lost 22lbs since the surgery, but just guessing that the mushies may set me back somewhat

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
