I was wondering how you were doing. Glad to hear you are well! It may take a little time to work up to getting all your fluids in. It gets better each day. Take care!

I think a lot of us are addicted to the scale - I still am and weigh daily.  Keep in mind that with surgery most people gain several pounds from the IV fluids.  It may be a couple of weeks before you start seeing the weight start to fall off.  Just in time for the 3 week stall.  Try not to get frustrated though.  As long as you stick to your plan and get plenty of protein and fluids, the weight loss will continue.

Have a great day!

you won't feel restriction much until you get to regular food.  fluids will go right thru.  that's why they tell you not to drink with the food.  it will pu**** thru too quickly and you won't feel full as long or may eat too much.  just take it slow and you'll do ok!
