September 15, 20178 yr Pretty good a little on the tired side. I'm addicted to the scale and have gained some weight. But I put the scale in time out and am hoping it's just shifting fluids. How are you feeling?
September 15, 20178 yr Author I understand completely! I am hoping some of my energy will come back soon. I actually gained 7lbs the day after surgery then I dropped after I started taking in more fluids, then I gained 3lbs overnight! And dropped it slowly. I am on full liquids for 4 weeks (26th) so I think since I'm not taking in a lot of calories my body is in starvation mode which is why it is holding on to my weight and that could be the case with you as well!
September 15, 20178 yr Thank God for this site. I feel better just talking to u. I am real good now. On the 6th day after surgery I was able to eat. It's so strange how different each program is.

It's so strange how different each program is. I have instagram account that has tons of people on there that have had the vsg! It's allotacupcakes if you want to look me up!! [emoji4] it is crazy how different the programs are! And my surgeon is super strict [emoji51] I can't wait to chew something!!
September 15, 20178 yr It's amazing.....you will enjoy cottage cheese like never before. At least I have you now. I'll try to contact you as often as possible. Good luck!

Sent from my SM-G900V using BariatricPal mobile appLike I said before, mine is going up and down. I've lost 13lbs since surgery. And I am on liquids! Meaning I should probably be losing like crazy!! But I'm not. So don't overthink it! Our bodies are in shock right now. And our bodies really want us to hold on to fat cause it's all it's known for so long. Give it time, it will start falling off.

September 15, 20178 yr I feel the same. I am hoping that these negative feelings will soon pass as we emerge from our former selves. At least you're not alone

I suffer from OCD and I can't stop obsessing that my doctor messed up on my sleeve and made it too big.He did my wife's sleeve and I swear mine is bigger.
