19 days post-op and I am sick of mushey foods!



Recommended Posts

Only 10 more days and I can finally eat something! Of course, I'm not going to cheat on the post-op diet... I don't want to hurt myself (plus I'm not a gigantic pig who can't control herself)...

But I really want something to eat! I'm not talking a hugh fried chicken meal with french fries... I just want a subway or something!

On the plus side, I have lost 25 pounds in 19 days!

:biggrin:

Hope, I think you may be just a touch sensitive. I'm sure that's not what Ponytail meant. I don't know her nor have I ever spoken to her but I think this was just a way for her to vent a little to help get by with this. Don't take this wrong but I read in another post that you were cheating a little and maybe you are feeling a little guilty about it? We all have to do what works for us but please don't read into her words things that aren't really being said.

Ponytail, just hang in there girl!! You want to keep on keeping' on to help your band get seated so there is less chance of erosion. There are some great threads in this section that cover that. I plan on reading those over and over when the hunger is driving me insane!! :biggrin:

And BTW, AWESOME WEIGHT LOSS!! YOU GO GIRL!

so everyone who cheats a little is a "gigantic pig who can't control themself"? that seems way harsh.

yes, i'd like a response to that myself.

Ponytail,

I don't take what you said personally but it probably could be construed by some people that way.

Consider yourself lucky that you are on mushies. I am 5 days out and still on Clear liquids. Tomorrow or Tuesday I start full liquids for another week before the mushy stage.

Its weird how all doctors are different.

Hang in there, it will be fine.

Alice

Actually, I misread your original post. I thought you were only 2 days post op. I guess you've already done the liquid stages and suffered like the newly banded.

      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!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        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?

      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
