1 week down 33LBS



Recommended Posts

That is not for one person. My wife lost 13lbs and I lost 20lbs. Lossing weight is easy when you don't eat (LOL) Clear Liquids are for the birds. I'm affraid some of our liquids were not that clear. We do like cream Soups. Deb has trouble with some liquids. but I feel like I could eat a horse.

Congrats to both of you, you're doing great. I'm glad you guys made it back in one piece, and I wish you much success.

I didn't do so well on the Clear Liquids either, I lasted 2 days before I added milk, I needed something creamy, my tummy wasn't liking the clears and I was feeling on the naseaus side. I'm 20 days out, and on most regular foods, I haven't tried things that are dry or doughy, and I'm avoiding breads, and red meats, except ground beef that's broken up in Soup or sauce.

Has Deb tried the chewable pepcid for her reflux? It sure helped mine that first week, the clears seemed to bring it on for me.

Hang in there, it's all downhill from here <VBS>

So glad to hear you both are doing so well!!!!!!!! Keep up the good work. I hope your reflux gets better. Glad to hear Debbie is doing better. I was fortunate, I take Prevacid everyday, so I had it under control before surgery, or else I would have been miserable for sure. You guys take care ok, and keep smiling.

Hugz to you both

Thank for the encouragement. Deb is doing much better. The reflux is not bothering her. She is not able to handle anything to thick. I not have any problems. I did eat some Soup call chicken tortilla. Big mistake the tortilla laid way to heavy.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
