I am two weeks post op Gastric Sleeve and I think I am paranoid

Aug 03, 2009

Hello Everyone,

I am 2 weeks post op Gastric sleeve and I have only lost 10 pounds. Is there anyone else 2 weeks post op and how much have you lost so far? I am now on puree/soft foods and I have over eaten 3 times and it was the worse feeling in the world. All three times I had to literally cry myself to sleep. I do my daily exercises (walking and step aerobics) every day and I am very much trying to get in at least 50-60 grams of protein, however I am struggling with getting in 64oz of water, but I am close. I had my 1 week post op doctor visit last Wednesday and my doctor said I was doing really well healing and all but  when I was weighed  in I  thought I lost more weight. I left a little disappointed by I was Happy I lost something.

Today makes 2 weeks actually to the day and I am so worried that I am not going to lose more weight. I don't know why I feel like this. I am scarcely eating anything but when I eat I feel like I am eating too much. I am so fixated on making sure I lose weight that I think I am not going to lose weight. I think I am paranoid. I want to do everything that I am suppose to but I feel like I have stretched my stomach and I am scared that I will stretch it too much and I won't lose weight. I want too lose the weiht so badly and I don't want anything to hender my progress. I really think I am getting paranoid! Someone anyone please help!!

What is happening to me??
