Thanks but are you only on clear? My doc has me on clear which is why this is happening. I take it lightly and wonder when I do get to eat if I will gain a little?

5 pounds is also great in one week! :)

My surgery was on the 13th and before I was released from the hospital the dr. graduated me to full liquids which is the creamy Soups, cottage cheese, yogurt, shakes.... I have lost 10 lbs. since the day of surgery. OMG!! I can't believe it.

Y'all pray for me, I don't seem to be doing as good as all of you guys... My side is swollen & I don't feel I've lost any weight since last Wed.. I can't seem to get many liquids down - today in try'n to get in 2 Protein Shakes & more water... You all are losing so much weight & I don't think I am... Maybe b/c my stomach is swollen & irritated & inflamed...

I am sorry you aren't feeling good. Take it easy. If you haven't lost any weight now it is probably Water retention, out bodies react differently. I am sure you will start losing according to your body. Hang in there. Hope you can have your Protein today. Prayers going your way.

Oh honey- that was me a couple days ago and I was dehydrated which is a major risk to surgery. I would 1) call doc and 2) stay on Clear Liquids (if u can add unflavored Protein to your drinks). Please call you doc. I was re admitted overnight for that :(

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
