I know we have stalls but I think I'm broken...or just impatient...IDK!

Ok, I'm not being irrational...I'm worried. I was one of the dummies for lack of a better term that tried to eat a chicken nugget when I had no other food to eat and that was at 2 weeks out. I was also the one that would try to force Protein so that I don't get sick from the lack of and so that I wouldn't loose my hair so easily.

I am also the one that got a hernia repair and sleeve at the same time, then had a horrible coughing spell 2 nights in a row that put me in major pain. I'm the one that thought I could just get my fill of protein with food and blah to the shakes....smh, boy was I wrong!!!

I was also the one that had a JP Drain for 2 weeks when it should have been removed in 1 week. The drainage colors changed from the normal blood and straw yellow color to a green then brown color in the 2nd week.

Basically, I did many things wrong, I don't need you to tell me that. I've told my doctor almost everything but I want to call and ask for him to look at the sleeve and make sure I haven't blocked it or ruptured it because I feel heavy all over again. Like I really messed something up...

Also, when I told him what i was drinking since the Water wasn't easy to go in....he said STOP THAT, those drinks have too much sugar. I wonder if it's sticking to me already. I've stopped as instructed.

Anyone know how sensitive the sleeve is? It's even sensitive to the touch. Is it a normal stall and I'm just being overly worried?

I'm 1 month out, please help if you can either relate or if you're more than 2 months out.

Thanks

A month out? Give it time. What have you lost from surgery to now?

When I was two weeks out I hit a three week stall!

It will happen

I'm 6 weeks out. I hit a stall at 3 weeks and have been loosing 1 to 1.5 lbs. a week since.

I am 4 weeks post op tomorrow and although I have done everything right, I just ended a ten day stall.

I didn't let it bother me.
