LindsayHeth I am exactly where you are, but am afraid to weigh myself ! I am afraid no weight loss will discourage me.

So, I am hoping my body is not letting me down.

Dignity! Don't be afraid! If anything just weigh and see where you are and what you need to do! We got this! Please keep me updated!

My first week of liquids I dropped 7 pounds really fast. The second week I stayed the same. But I did well on the diet. My doctor was more than fine with my results. You will be okay. Just stick to the diet. It goes slow and fast at the same time. Before you know it you will be in surgery!

LindseyHeth I will weigh myself in the a.m. Dread......Except for the first day of diarrhea, I have not had a bowel movement. Is this normal? Maybe I should get some metamucil tomorrow. Regardless, I am sure the- day- before-surgery Miralax bowel prep kit will take care of any residual constipation..lol!

I didnt weigh myself for the first 6 days on the liquid diet, i was too afraid to see no weight loss...i was also away for those 6 days on a business trip! so i was super stoked to see that i lost 6lbs when i got back :) you can do it!!!

Lol! I have noticed that many people have to do a week or more of liquids. I am only on a very low calorie diet, so I am having BMs. Not sure if that is normal for you. A couple of Dulcolax capsules should help ease the Constipation.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
