IM SCHEDULED FOR SEPT 12

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!

Did u have a long pre op?

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.

Thanks so much, I'm feeling very weak today, my 1st follow up appt is Friday so I will definetly asking questions - hopefully I'm not getting dehydrated or anything... Thanks for the encouragement

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

ready you will be fine we have to remember its only been a week. try and get the protien in though. hang in there we are here for you also. you are not alone

Oh well that's why then you lost a bunch already! You'Re doing great!

Oh know, you were?? How did you know you dehydrated?? I felt pretty good the last couple of days besides the heavyness of swallowing & my side pain... I'm getting scared now
