Hello I was wondering If anyone has October Surgery dates and how are you feeling about it being right around the corner and how are u spendng your time now that the hard part is over ur approved and have your date

I have had soft shells twice. Twice they came up...ugh...sorry. I'm six weeks post op' date=' and there's no way I'm up for a third attempt!! I'll stick with just the inside!![/quote']

Yea ill stick to hard shell it hurts as soon as u swallow it

a new beggining 10/16

I was told no pastas no bread until goal weight. pastas and breads have carbs in them that turn to sugar during digestion.

I was told no types of bread or pasta for 6months at least.. I don't dare try anything my surgent told me not to.. what's the point of this surgery if were just gonna eat the same fatty foods..

You should be able to have everything, moderation is the whole point of any bariatric surgery. I have pasta most days I'm 6 weeks post op. I've lost 3 stone (42lb) 4 stone to go

.I serve every meal in a little ramakin with two table spoons of food in. We need to have a balanced diet and gain control of our mind. Refined sugar isn't on our menu, but a LITTLE pasta with fish, meat and sauce....no worries. The hardest part of this whole process is learning how to eat again but eating right! Xx

I am not supposed to have bread, rice, or pasta until 6mos either, not because they are carbs, but because they are often not tolerated.

Dancer thinking of you. Can't wait to hear from you.

Hi Shonabear!

Thanks for your thoughts! I am now 3 weeks post op. I have a really hard time getting my liquids in but other than that all is great. I'm now down 15 pounds and 23 inches. I have started eating regular food...soft foods including some soft meats. I have not....at least to this point had any complications or discomfort. I've not had any pain since the day after surgery. I'm so very thankful I'm doing this well!

I'm 3 weeks out. I can't have any breads or meats yet. My surgeon allows his patients to have pasta, as long as you chew very well. I've had no problems. Down 30 pounds.

how long does this stall at 3-4 weeks post op last?

I stalled between 3 and 4&1/2 weeks. Started losing again at 4 & 1/2.

I'm seven weeks post op today. I stalled at 3 weeks and again at six weeks.

oh I hope so for me i see now where the frustration comes from now over stalls.

Stalls suck but be patient
