I'm a little over 2 weeks out and have heartburn like crazy. I'm onto puréed food but not losing. I lost 19lbs really fast and now nothing. Is that normal 2 weeks out?

How much have you lost since surgery? What do you do for your heartburn?

call doc on the heartburn in the morning. There are many who take meds for it. I have actually doubled up on my meds and I'm about to start my 3rd mo.

Good luck!

Thank you:). I take Prilosec but I'm thinking I'm going to have to double up on it too. It's an awful feeling.

You can take Prilosec twice a day. If that doesn't help call your doc for a prescription PPI.

I was sleeved on 7/15 too, I'm only down 14 as well I think! Trying to go by my doctors scale which is 2 pounds lighter then mine at home. I only lost 1 pound this week. How many carbs are you eating in a day? I'm starting to wonder if I'm eating to many.

@ca530 im barely eating carbs. I would say maybe 15grams. I'm mostly still drinking a lot, ie my Protein Shakes, Water, Crystal light, and watered down cranberry juice. If I do have carbs it's from cheese.

I've been eating Greek yogurt and Protein Bars. The bars say only 3 grams of net carbs. But I don't know if I'm suppose to be counting net carbs or carbs listed on the package. I getting about 40 grams of carbs a day. Because of those 2 things.

I think u r suppose to go off total carbs. It sounds like we are both at a stall. I eat yoplait greek yogurt. Their vanilla flavor is really good and it doesnt have that greek yogurt taste. I don't know off hand the carbs but it's super low. I know it's less than chobani. How r u feeling? I'm taking my Vitamins but I'm feeling super tired still. I don't want to do anything.

Ill have to ask my doctor about the carb thing. I was really tired the first few days, but after like day 5 I have been fine. I swear I can't sleep at all at night. I just took Benadryl to hopefully fall asleep at a normal hour. I'm up and moving sound like usual. I went school shopping for my kids today for 3 hours, then took my daughter to a horse farm and walked all over. What type of Vitamins are you taking? My only thing is my left side above my incision where she cut through the stomach muscle is still killing me. Every now and then I ave to take a muscle relaxer if I over do it with activity. It's hard I forget I had surgery so I catch myself picking stuff up that I'm not suppose to or bending the wrong way and I get a sharp pain. I hope you get your energy back soon!

      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
