What was your recommended diet? It seems as though you should be eating more frequently (but I'm pre-surgery still). My NUT said 5-6 very small meals with about 3 hours in between (concentrate on Protein first) and at least 64ozs fluids (non caloric). You might not be able to eat that much ...not sure at 6 weeks post-op.

It certainly doesn't sound like you are eating frequently enough. What is your Protein target?

Are you:

Following your program?

Tracking your food?

Getting in all of your protein every day?

Getting at least 64 oz of Fluid?

Taking your Vitamins and supplements as directed?

Well eating shrimp and walking on Water isn't enough. Lol.

People have kindly answered your request for help with very legitimate questions about your behaviors and tracking. You did not answer. If your idea of tracking is eating shrimps walking and Water then you are in for a wake up call. It takes some focusing on the rules. Keeping track of Protein water calories and carbs and finding the delicate balance that works for you. At 3 weeks or so most of us stall. Then we stall again. Again and again. In spite of all that we melt away little by little. I'm 6 months out and the last couple of weeks I've lost a pound a week. Because I track everything know that in the last month I've lost 11 pounds. 72 pounds since Nov. 88 more to go. One day at a time. One bite at a time.

If your not eating enough cal's you will stay in the stall because your body will think it's starving. Even if you don't feel like eating, eat it will get you moving again.

Our surgery dates were probably very similar. Mine was March 29. I am now getting close to 100 grams of Protein each day and between 800 and 900 cal per day. You did not mention your starting weight. I have lost 42 pounds since I started trying to lose weight in February and I have lost 23 pounds since surgery. Slow and steady. You don't want to feel full. You don't wait until you are hungry to eat. You should probably have a good talk with your surgeon's office or nutritionist.

      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! 😞
