It will take the body a little to bounce back after a major surgery for sure. Moving builds up stamina and staying hydrated is a must. One day at a time will get us there!

Yes.....

How much food/liquid are we supposed to be able to hold at this point. Sleeved on 3/28. I had about 8oz of Tomato Soup today and about 1/2 cup of cottage cheese throughout the day. I felt like it was coming back up and actually threw up in my mouth. But I don't know if it's possibly acid reflux? Or if I "ate" too much. I'm on the mushy food stage. I'm desperately trying to get down 64oz of Fluid and 60g of Protein and it's near impossible. Yes I've been trying to do Protein shakes but after doing it for 2.5 weeks I got sick and tired of them. Any suggestions for this mushy food phase? Maybe not dairy? I only lost 22 pounds and then hit a plateau already. Anyone else having the same issue?

Unless you've been at that weight for several weeks, it's not a plateau. Just your body trying to catch up with your weight loss and figure out what's going on. I can do 8 oz of Soup no problem but thicker foods I eat too fast and it goes from hungry to hurting quickly. I would just stick to foods high in Protein that are still liquid. Split pea soup I had the other day had 14 gms in a can (Amy's low sodium) just be very careful about your choices. Maybe purée the cottage cheese?

8 ounces is way too much at once.. unless you're talking about throughout the day, but even then seems too much. I would try 2 ounces.

I'm onto soft foods starting today and after 3 tablespoons of hummus, I was full. I'm still drinking one bottle of Isopure a day to get my 40g of Protein. I love these juices because it's different from the shakes. It has 40g of protein per 20oz bottle. No sugar, no carbs. Only 160 calories. Only drawback is it gives tour mouth that dry feeling due to the protein. So, for those having issues with getting their protein in, try this.

Actually I forgot to ask- did anyone poop yet? I haven't gone to the bathroom properly since pre op. I think I'm going to need to take a laxative soon so I don't get all backed up. Anyone else having this problem?

All things gummy! They take too long to digest etc. check with your doc.

Really? How odd. My md and nut told me to eat the Gummy mutivits, and gummy fiber. I guess all programs are different.

      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!!

        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?
