@@Hertsukfem31, I feel that 100% I actually cried because I wanted to eat myself into oblivion, that is so wrong!!! I am learning though slowly but surely.

@@bubbles2015 Hi there Bubbles! I am 4 weeks out also. I noticed that you said that it takes you 40 minutes to finish your egg. I can't eat a whole scrambled egg (w/cheese) yet. I can feel full after just over half. My nutritionist told me to stop eating after 20 minutes. I eat about 1/4 cup of food each meal. I can eat a little more yogurt. Anyway, eating over a period of 40 minutes cuts down on your Fluid intake time. Maybe ask your Nut about the 40 minute meals?

@@Hertsukfem31 You said: "I'm 2 weeks post op now and still feel unwell, extreme exhaustion, feel sick, trying new things like Weetabix and I am gonna try scrambled egg soon but it's just a case of too exhausted to try"

I am 4 weeks post-op and I am still extremely exhausted. Call your nurse for suggestions. I called yesterday and was told to drink G2 Gatorade and to eat fruit. I did that and am feeling just a bit better. She told me that the exhaustion can last six to eight weeks. :( HANG IN THERE! I hear it gets better! ;)

@@TammyDTM, I was told it could easily take me that long to eat and that it is very normal. I think because Protein and calories more important at this point, I have all day and night to drink. That comes from my doctor so I feel right on track.

I'm having to go back a step for a few days as I have tried a few things last 2 days only 1-2 teaspoon full each time and become extremely exhausted, nauseous and my heart rate starts thumping very quickly, I'm so annoyed as I felt much happier starting the next phase and now I am back to the start again :-(

I'm glad that your doctor has you on track. You are doing well!

@@Hertsukfem31 Sometimes a "reset" is necessary. Perhaps your stomach isn't ready to move along. Call your doctor if it gets too concerning. Take it slow...

      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?
