Still Waiting someone HELP

Someone Help me, I'm 3 weeks post op. and hit a stand still at 12 days post op still there!! My diet as of now mainly consists of split pea soups, healthy broccoli and cheddar soup, eggs with cheese, protein shakes and diabetic yogurt and of course water. Someone please reassure me that I'm doing everything right and for me some reassurance that I will start losing weight. I'm sick of the food I'm eating and I'm so scared I had this surgery and its not working lol and I know Rome wasn't built in a day...

I'm two weeks post op and I'm in the exact same spot you are, I have lost 17 lbs and haven't moved from there. I'm hoping that its just my body getting used to all the changes and that it will get on board with the losing weight thing we got going on now lol.

Well I'm officially down 21 pounds! But that all happened in 11 days after surgery. Then it stopped, hoping too it will adjust and jump back on the losing bandwagon. What are you eating?

I was exactly like u. Just be patient. Stick to what u r supposed to do. Ur body is freaking out right now. Breath. It's ok :-)

Just started tuna fish and scrambled eggs today, mainly been eating yogurt and mashed potatoes. I go back to work Sunday so hopefully walking around more will also help my cause...

I'm not allowed soft meats for 4 days. Then potatoes 2 weeks later. I've been walking and doing squats, I'm breathing lol just ready to see this thing get rolling!!

Almost everyone hits a plateau within a couple weeks of surgery I hit mine at 3 weeks post op. Keep following your doctors instructions. It will work, the scale will move. Make sure you are getting in all your protein and fluid and make sure you are MOVING. Take a walk everyday. It really helps.

Thanks! I'm trying to walk everyday even if its an hour walk around Walmart. I'm getting in plenty of protein, and most of my water. I'm also doing a ton of squats daily

You are doing great! I have hit several stalls over my 4months and when people told me "you still lose inchs even when the numbers on the scale don't change" I thought NO WAY! but I was at 185lbs and in a size 16 jeans for 3weeks. I was noticing the jeans getting a little loose every day. Finally I went to get a pair of new jeans and had to go back out and get a size 12. Wow was I surprised! I am now down to 177lbs but that 8lbs was just this week! Keep up the good work!

I stalled after 4weeks and 2 days (but who was counting?....). I just started losing last week. Just like rest of you. It will start moving. Keep moving, get all protein and water in!!
