40 Lbs Lost In Two Weeks...



Recommended Posts

Today I have lost a total of forty pounds and it has only been two weeks and two days post op... I would be worried that is a little fast but I am celebrating this victory... Before I considered surgery the most I lost was fifteen pounds only to gain it back quicker than I lost it... Now to date I am almost half of what my goal weight loss is only sixty more to go...

I'm very jealous but extremely happy for you. These last 14 lbs have been the hardest to lose. :(

I'm feeling pretty good! I have pain in my stomach region. No other issues though. I'm getting discharged soon. I had some yogurt and skim milk this morning. How are you handling full liquids?

Barely. I just don't have any desire to ingest anything. I'm forcing myself every few hours to have a few ounces of a shake and a bottle of Water. food in general just sounds grose! I was pretty sore and campy

I was pretty sore and crampy thismorning, but once they pulled the drainage tube I had instant relief. I am having an issue with my left eye being completely dialated while my right eye is normal. Doctors are thinking its related to the patch I was wearing behind my left ear for Nausia. Some kind of reaction. We're just watching it real close. Glad you are doing ok!

I'm sorry to hear about that. I hope that they can figure it out soon! I was fortunate to not have a drainage tube. They are miserable, so I feel for you. I had major surgery on my left shoulder in 1998 and I had 3 drain tubes for about a month. They are terrible. I'm still having some abdominal pain and I'm sure that will continue for a little while longer. I feel like the easy (surgery) part is over. I feel that the hard part is learning how to eat right, staying active and getting all the Protein in. I know the Protein is the key!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
