Ok I had mine in Oct 4th... day 1 at night sucked from the gas inflation not GI gas... it takes about 2 days for the body to absorb it. Nausea only day 1 when moving. No issues this far out - took forever to Poop sorry but yes liquid is normal. I used to go a few times a day now several days in between. Weight so far only down about 10 total. Feeling good - listen to your body - if tired your doing too much ..... I over did this weekend. Eating - the stomach doesn't feel so no pain. I found a super awesome app to track intake and all super easy - https://www.nutritionix.com By far the best I found....... um for guys no pain with with climax so far - just gotta take it easy..... just exercise and lots of walking..... I'm at protien a day, average 950 or less calories a day and about 80ish carbs... ask me anything I don't mind

I love that app above - sooo easy and that's great halima02 as I'm on purée- I'm doing salmon chopped supper fine with a little lite mayo and have been fine with that and mashed potatoes with added protien and a bit of real gravy. Sad part is im hungry again during the day and want to snack already or eat - I'm afraid I've already stretched my stomach out lol (I no it cant) but has me worried that they should have went smaller

Salmon bought it prepackaged for salads but perfect portion for two meals....I just added a little light mayo.... no veggies yet as I hate them - I like salad but not allowed to yet..... all super soft foods

I'm three weeks in and getting nearly 1,000 calories a day. Are any other women having as many calories as that?

I'm 3 weeks also. I'm probably getting around 400-500. Some days less. But honestly it's because I just couldn't be bothered eating. I'm not in that mindset yet of forcing myself so I wouldn't use me as an example because I'm a bit naughty.

@@Nikkinee I think that you are more normal than me. I am really hungry and easily manage nearly 1,000 a day. I will have to be careful that I keep losing on that

I just got approval this afternoon. Thought my surgery would be in November.. but found out my date is on HALLOWEEN!!! Holy Crapcake!! Tomorrow, I begin my liquid pre-op diet. I am a wreck! I am terrified.

Please, anyone who's had their sleeve done within the past few weeks.. speak to me. Tell me how you did right after surgery. How was recovery? How was the pain? Did you take GasX strips? How are you now? Should I wear a costume to the operating room? (just kidding about the last question)

My surgeon is Marc Bessler ... did anyone have him as their surgeon?

I am scheduled for HALLOWEEN too!!! Your costume will consist of a patient gown, no undies, an IV and a hair bonnet. The best costume EVER!!!
We will all be dressed alike! I'm going in on Halloween too! Wishing us all speedy recoveries and great success!

I've just started to have that empty feeling over the past 2 days and although I'm not hungry it's my body's way of saying ah maybe you should eat something now.

You should definitely keep losing on 1000 calories a day as it'll be below your BMR, but it may become slower the further along you get. I know most newbies are on around 600-800 at this stage but it's not to say you won't lose weight. Have you tried upping your water/liquid intake? I find if I'm drinking all day, that gives me a full feeling.

      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! 😞
