I know my nutritionist said to not get on the scale for a bit and I waited 4 days. Yesterday was 3 weeks post op. I'm jogging in the pool for at least an hour every day (I did skip Monday due to bad weather.)

I gained 7 lbs post op, lost that, went down 10 then up 5 over last weekend and still stuck there. So with 2 weeks pre op diet and 3 weeks post op I have lost 5 stinking lbs.

I did this surgery because I tried everything the last two years. I gave up booze, diet soda, bread, Pasta. Tried mostly vegetarian, juicing etc. and the same thing keeps happening. I lose a couple of lbs and then stop. Last time it took 4 months to lose 10 lbs.

What is wrong with my metabolism. I know its a sin to compare but most everyone here is posting that they've lost at least 20 lbs in the same time frame.

Did anyone else have this type problem?

I need some support today before I lost my mind!

My first week was clears (with a couple of exceptions allowed by my surgeon). The priority is Protein and fluids.

I liked ProtiDiet liquid beverage concentrates.

Some people like Isopure.

Syntrax nectar.

Bone broth/broth (bone broth has more protein) or bouillon.

I was also allowed Premier Protein and ProtiDiet creamy chicken and tomato basil Soups even though they aren't technically clear.

By the second week, I was on full liquids. I did have an occasional V8 then just for variety.

Check with your program to see what you are allowed.

If you feel you must have juice, make sure it is very diluted.
