  • Kristy3K is so right.... stick with your program, food, protein, liquids and all of a sudden you are going to get on the scale and be down 10 lbs... your body is still healing and will for a while.

Kristy3K is so right.... stick with your program, food, protein, liquids and all of a sudden you are going to get on the scale and be down 10 lbs... your body is still healing and will for a while. You can't have instant gratification it took time for the weight to go on so its going to take time for it to come off. We all lose at our own rate.. you will lose... follow your plan.

Just like everybody else said I'm with them but wanted to add. When you go thru a surgery as significant as we did your body holds on to junk. Like me it was the weirdest thing but I sweated like a pig. I swelled up too and had all this diff sorts of post op things. So once ur body has derided from the anesthsia and all those drugs u should notice a big difference. Patience young grasshopper =)

what are you eating and what kind of protein are you using. I am having a hard time.

You may have also gained quite a bit from liquids in the hospital. You'll lose that first before your own body weight.

I am drinking the EAS shakes three times a day which is close to 60g. I am slowly eating oatmeal and grits. I am drinking about 40 ounces of Water.

I weighed Bout the same as you pre op and had my surgery 3/22. First week i lost 15 lbs second week I gained three back. You are not doing anything wrong. Our bodies are getting used to the new program and holding on to everything. I finally lost those three pounds yesterday but only because I walked 5 miles in two days and spent two hours rigorously cleaning. For a lot of ppl exercise will get them losing faster or out of a stall like me. Good luck and don't get discouraged!
