Stalled at 2.5 weeks??
I did great for my first 2 weeks, roughly losing 27 lbs during that time. I know guys lose fast than gals, but the doctors were still pleased with my first 2 weeks. They said that even for a guy that my weight loss was above average for the first 2 weeks. So they moved me from the liquid diet to the puree diet.
I've been eating 2-3 times a day. Usually things like fat free refried bean w/ fat free cheese, scrambled eggs, nothing really out of the ordinary. I get about 60g of protein in per day, should be getting about 20 more grams given my 6' height. Liquid intake is at or near the right level of 50-60 oz.
I've noticed now for the last 4 days, my weight is the same everytime I step on the scale. Could this be my body just adjusting from liquid foods to more solid food?
I know it's normal to stall, but I'm just shocked to see it so early. Although I've been feeling that my recovery has been going much faster than most of the surgery stories that I've read.
