Im 10 days post op and I've been sneaking in soft foods..broccoli and fish oh and a pickle (no skin) I haven't eating a lot but I just had to confess. Im actually 19lbs down! But I haven't lost anything in the last 2days just wondering if I may have caused a stall ..remember I was losing 2 1/2 to 3 lbs a day!

Ok so I'm going to be really mean because clearly you are clueless... You just had 85% of your stomach removed!!! for gods sake think next time you shove some solid food in your mouth.. Your staple line isn't healed up and you should follow your doctors orders to progress your diet gradually. Causing a stall should be the least of your worries.. You should be worried about causing a leak..

Yes! Omg a leak. Girl, we love you. We don't want you to die!!! Please be stronger than this. If I can do it, I KNOW you can.

You need to take the surgery seriously, you know you've done wrong. Get yourself together and follow your post-op instructions. That's the only advice I have for you. Oh and like soocalchic said a STALL is the last thing you should be worried about.

Fell off the horse. Get back on. It's just a few more days till you are allowed soft foods...you can wait... As far as tongue lashings, we are all here for support. We are all human and make mistakes. She knows she shouldn't do it, and admitting what she did was wrong is hard to do.

As far as stalls..they will come and go, you don't need to worry about them...they will pass. Be careful, and good luck!

Skinless pickle? Why would anyone pickle peeled cucumbers? It would become mush! After the pickling process (with peeling)... it's all the same texture anyway..

Totally weird!

Anyway... Get back on your docs suggested foods and live up to your name

Girl there is a whole bunch of people here doing that! Seriously I see it everyday here! And they are drinking the pickle juice too! GROSS!!

Oh and to the op please be kind to your stomach, it may not hurt... but that is because at ten days your stomach nerves are still somewhat numb still. Please go back to the recommended plan.

But WTH is a skinless pickle.. Seriously.. It's just absurd to think of this concept of pickle abomination. It's just wrong to us seriously pickles

Sheesh.. That's should be PICKLERS.. stupid auto correct! I swear I don't consider myself a pickle

. The skin is removed after it is pickled by the person who's going to eat it lol

Damn... Id eat the thing too if i took the time to peel it!

I'm a total pickle junkie

Oh my! Lol I just didn't eat the skin..just the mushy part

Just saying...that a fellow sleever took a big bite of hubby's cheese burger on day 2 post-op and was taken by ambulance to larger hospital for leak. So...really it isnt healthy or wise to go off your diet.

When you're at the "mushie" foods stage, you can just about eat anything if you chew it a LOT. As for skinless pickles: my mother used to make the absolute best, world class bread & butter sweet pickles with skinned and sliced cucumbers. Perfection. I wonder if she still has the recipe.... I will ask her tomorrow. I am soooo blessed to still have my mother so I can ask her silly questions :-)

Omg nooo I wouldn't dare eat a burger!!!
