I went for my 4 week checkup today, and can move to soft foods now. Dr said I'm doing great. I was on cloud 9. Then I went to the NUT and she scolded me for my choice of Protein Shake and my intake. I use a ready made because it's easy for on the go. It's 30g of Protein. I told her it's hard to drink 80g in a day. She wasn't sympathetic. Ugh! I don't like her grrr

4week follow up- starting weight 296, now 265.

I'm getting really bored with food I'm eating. Soup goes down much easier but i want something different but soft foods kinda bothers me.

I was 296 pre-surgery, day before surgery 286 current weight 260. I do really soft scrambled eggs, dark chicken covered in fat free gravy. I have problems getting it down too sometimes but I find that if you sit straight up or stand and take a bite rest, take a bite and so on, it is a lot easier. Good Luck!!

I had my surgery 9/17/13- Revision lapband to sleeve.

Weight day of surgery: 260

Today weight: 253

Up and walking as much as possible. Still having gas pains in left shoulder about to drive me crazy. Do now know why but know all I keep reading about is complications and so fearful of a leak. However I have no abdominal pain' date=' fever, nausea or vomiting. Is anyone else experiencing the same fears?[/quote']

Yes I'm def having the same fears just had mine nearly two weeks ago I'm only having liquid still but am even scared I'm going to drink to much & it may burst!

I am 5 weeks out. I know you feel uneasy now but as long as you follow the liquids and the purée protocol you will be fine :)

Maybe you can talk to your dr or nutritionist and they can advise you. Hang in there

I was sleeved 9/16. Starting weight 264, surg date 241, day I left the hospital 249 (yes, 8 lbs of IV fluids), I lost 22 lbs in the first two weeks (227) and have been stalled for the last 3.5 weeks. So frustrated. Exercising, eating low carb high Protein. Keep thinking "I did this for 20 lbs?" Nutritionist wants me on metformin for insulin resistance (I'm not diabetic) and said to try GTF Chromium. Anyone else use GTF Chromium?

Weight at 1st Surgeons visit on June 18 : 513. Weight at Sept. 3rd surgery: 465 Weight today (7.5 weeks post op): 428 Down exactly 85 pounds from surgical consult.

      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
