One week post-op HOW ARE WE DOING?



Recommended Posts

You guys, I thought having like a 1/3 of a sugar free fudge pop would be ok- noooooot so much. Half way through I felt nauseous so I stopped. (Sad) buuuuut I did try 2 oz of sugar free chocolate pudding with a spoon of lite cool whip and it was awesome! (Even though I whipped it up with a fork to get it to be thinner, it was still a little too rich. I ended up leaving about half, but sooooooooo good after the broths and juices.)

I also snuck like half a teaspoon of hummus- I'm middle eastern, I just wanted something garlicky in my life! Didn't bother me :)

But I was short by about 20 grams of Protein today. I'm going to substitute the Soups and Popsicles for low fat Greek yogurt which has 12 grams of Protein + my shakes :)

I was sleeved June 17th so I am a week and a few days out. I have no pain at all from the surgery. My regular pain is still there! LOL

I am doing mostly all liquid/soft food (yogurt, cream Soups, jello). I am working in soft soft Protein --about 1 ounce per day. Not very hungry and drinking a lot of Water.

Have not done much exercise as I am limited by my pain but I am doing a lot of moving around the house, cleaning and staying busy with projects. As soon as I heal, I can get back in the pool to exercise.

Had my post surgical office visit on 6/26 and I had lost 13 lbs.

You guys,

I had my one week post op check up. I lost 9 pounds, and the doctor said I could basically have most things as long as they're blended and not too thick. So I can add bananas, Peanut Butter to my shakes.

He also removed that gross pouch thingy. (My surgeon leaves it on for a week). Freakiest sensation ever! Glad that's over :)

      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.

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
