Most important is Water and G2 or crystal lite drinks. Don't forget the walking / exercise.

Have you spoken with your dietician/nutritionist about the watermelon? What is on your post op guidelines to eat at this stage aside from Water and shakes? liquid only Soups? Broths? What other fluids?

I wouldn't do watermelon early out because of the seeds. I unfortunately do not remember when I was allowed to have it but I know it was not allowed at 5 days out. Maybe ask your nutritionist about seedless watermelon but even that may be too soon at 5 days out.

You may be able to juice seedless watermelon. Is it just the flavor that you are craving?? Even that I would run it by the nutritionist though.

Why are you not drinking more shakes? Is it just hard to get it down?? Or you don’t like them?? Because it they are too sweet I had that issue too. I found the clear Protein Water to be less intense flavor wise and once I was allowed to have caffeine I tried the premiere protein caffe latte which I still enjoy one a day over a year later.

An did you take anything for your bowels have not made a bowel movement

I took the colace that the surgeon suggested starting immediately post surgery and I eventually took milk of magnesia when I still hadn’t had movement and that worked. Then starting the next day I took benefiber daily to keep things moving (Walmart has a generic powder that’s way cheaper).

Yes I lost five pounds my first week but not everyone does. Lots of things like inflammation and fluids can affect weight that early out. It is hard. It’s good that you are already starting to distinguish head hunger from actual hunger though. Are you allowed to have sugar free popsicles and Jello. I had lots of those because I felt like I got to chew which helped.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      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!!
