Hi Lori,
I do wish you luck on your journey and I hope your results are different from mine, but have to say I got the gastric bypass on march the 30th and after 10 days of the post op diet, I have NOT LOST ONE POUND...on the pre op diet I lost 12 pounds on my own with slimfast and lean cusines for dinners ....not sure why this is happening so I have called the nurtitionist Dr Marinda last sunday and have not had a call back from her...I have tried drinking more fluids and cutting back on my protein shakes but that resulted in a 3 pound loss , and the next day I was right back up to my post op diet...so I would have to say , that today right here and now I really wish I had not had the surgery done and am very seriusly thinking of having it reversed....my daughter came down with me fand also had the surgery and to date her weightl loss has been the same as mine ZERO.....so not to sound like a downer, I would seriously rethink about having the surgery...
