Surgery June 26

I did gain 10 lbs from IV fluids given in hospital. I was surprised about it. That took a few days to reverse then I lost 12 lbs from my starting weight.

Able to get Protein and Water down easily

Still a little tired from surgery

Looking forward to new life !

Sleeved 7/1 - 5 days post-op. Lost 15lbs since surgery! Still heavily dependent on pain meds, struggling to get Water and Protein in! Despite my worries, the weight is falling off!

Sleeved 7/1, gained +9 lbs. of Fluid post-op. As of today, I've lost 6 of them. The scale is moving in the right direction!

Took a 20-minute walk to CVS to get my system moving along. Still very swollen internally, making it hard to get liquids in at a fast rate; but day 5 has been the best day as far as pain management and overall alertness/energy levels. I'm hoping it continues to improve daily.

Today I had my first bites of applesauce--I feel like I'm eating haute cuisine! Oooo la la!

I had surgery 7/2 and am only down 2 or 3 pounds. I've been having a hard time getting in my Protein & liquids but I am trying, just get super full super fast. I also am dying to get rid of the gas they blow your belly up with. I'm hoping once that goes away I can get my liquids/protein in like I need to.

Surgery 7/2

I am really struggling with getting the Protein and Water in and am kind of missing the taste of real food. So far I tried nectar and Isopure and at first they taste ok, but halfway down it's just really yucky.

I am mostly walking around the house since its 100 degrees outside, but will try to get out tomorrow.

      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
