Mwestcons: thank you for ur response. I will try with milk, I think the cramps make me stop eating or drinking the shakes, I think I am putting in too much! I guess I really don't know if I am full or not? Hope things improve each day, going back to work for half day tomorrow.

Hi! I was sleeved on June 26 & have dropped 10lbs. I am just trying to focus on staying hydrated. Unfortunately I've not been able to keep it all in. Going to try Imodium AD tomorrow but afraid I'm to late. Any suggestions on how to keep my fluids in?

Hey I'm a RN and Imodium is a good idea prob need to replace the good bacteria in the gi track to slow you down try some activia yogurt

Just keep drinking !

I had the same problem and my doctor told me to take Imodium and add vanilla activia Greek yogurt.

Hi June 16th for me, just wanted to join the conversation. My surgery has gone really well, I feel almost normal. But my scale hasn't budged for the last week. I guess I need to change things up. I went onto pureed foods yesterday, and WOW! How full did I feel after having about 2 teaspoons of butternut squash! I had to really slow it down to get in half a cup.

      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!!

      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
