6 months out. Still cant eat much!



Recommended Posts

I still live mainly on cream Soups n very mushy things. I do do things in the crockpot and pick at them all day to get something in. Even then it's no more than 3 bites at a time. I've lost almost 80lbs n 6 months. Anyone else?

I've lost 84 lbs in 5 months but I have no problem with my schedule and food. I have a Protein Shake for Breakfast and another one for dinner, eat one of the following as a snack: jell-o, chobani yog, low-fat string cheese, cottage cheese with fruit, low fat turkey Snacks or some trail mix, and have fish or chicken for lunch with either salad or steamed veggies. I always get more than 80g of Protein per day. I stay away from meat, I did not love it before surgery either, so I stick to mostly fish.

Maybe you have a stricture.....

Have you talked to your doctor about this? After six months it seems like you should be able to eat more than that. I am only about 3 weeks and I can eat more than you. I'd check to make sure you are getting enough and stay healthy. Good luck!

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
