According to the Dr office scales I went from 372 two weeks pre surgery to 344 the day of my surgery. So about 30 pounds. That has to be taken with a grain of salt because it was middle of day the two weeks pre surgery Ave in sure I had ate before I went to Dr and the day of my surgery it had been almost 12 hours since I are anything.

Hey Beme! I am glad you are doing real well. Sounds like you are adapting well. My experience has been a bit slower. I decided to stop my pain meds cause it was only mild pain from swallowing to much. Since early this morning my brain fog has cleared and I actually took in 60 grams of Liquid Protein all day and what a boost of energy that gave me. I was out walking 4 times today compared to only one yesterday. Day by day it gets so much better.

For my pre-opt diet I started at 372 and day of surgery I was down to 348. It surprised me a lot. I thought I only lost like 10-12lbs. If you stick to the diet rules and do a little extra walking (that is all I did) it worked out well.

Here's to another great Day!

Glad to hear that your doing well!

I have been laying off my pain meds to! It does make a difference! I still take a spasm pill first thing after I wake up to help the first Protein shake go down.

I have not been walking as much as I like but that should change this weekend when my daughter is here. The pool opens tomorrow did the season and I'm sure that we will walk there a couple of times a day.

I can't believe how much I'm looking forward to the pureed part of the diet! All Protein shakes are starting to taste the same!

Today was a minor setback. I barley made it to the toilet twice, I fell asleep last night at 7pm, woke up at 11pm, up untill 3am then slept untill noon yesterday. I am now still up from then.

Most of today i have just felt really weak and blah. I have been doing decent on the protien and Water intake. I had 55 oz of portien and around 48 oz of water. I also drank 3 cups of almond milk with my protien shakes and didn't count that towards my Fluid intake but I believe my doc said that I can do that.

I am starting to dream about cottage cheese and cant wait to get to the pureed part of the diet....lol

I also have been having a hard time walking as much as I should. I have 2 bad hips, one really bad one. My hip dr reccomended me having the surgery so I could loose a bunch of weight to put off my hip surgery for as long as possible so the artifical ones will last longer.

I have lost a lot of weight!!! for that Im happy and I know what once i am finally able to fall asleep tomrrow should be a better day!!!

@@Beme sleeping isn't a major set back, your body is still healing... sleep helps the body doing that... Think of it as your body saying let me heal... Good luck

Started pureed foods today. I can't beleive how much they fill you up compared to just drinking protien shakes.

Im not taking in much calories, still just not able to, but so far am adjusting to the new diet which is so much better!!!

I thought I was in heaven eating my one scrambled egg today and could not believe how full I was when I was done.
