One week out and 10 pounds down.....

One week out and 10 pounds down.....

I did that but now the scales not moving.

Sounds odd that you can't have protein. Did you double check with your Dr? It's so essential for your body. 1 week post ops I'm clear liquid/protein. 64oz water, broth, etc and 60 grams of protein.

Sleeved on the 17th, two days in the hospital, home for 3 days and back in the hospital for dehydration and low blood sugar. What a learning experience that was! I'm diligently sipping my fluids and have slowly started moving into full liquids. Had some butternut squash soup and a pudding cup today and feel pretty good. Down 9 lbs. from surgery. Totally pleased with the results.

Walk, walk, walk. I got up and made myself walk every two hours and it made a world of difference. Never had any pain from gas, just a little discomfort but it passed quickly.

No gas pain just pain where they took my stomach out

When you find out, please post. I'm in the same boat.

I'm going in to get some IV fluids today. I'm not super dehydrated, but I've only hit 64oz liquid 1 time in the 3 weeks since surgery. Most days I get about 40oz.

The dr office said I was moving to much ......I was washing clothes. They said it normal for a little blood seeping due to this
