Weight Loss - or the lack there of....

I lost 15 my first week.. now.. nothing in a week. I AM VERY frustrated.

I'm three weeks out today, and to date, I've lost 23 pounds. I do get my 70-80 grams of protein a day in, I drink more than 80 ounces of water, and I generally walk an hour in the morning after I get off from work. Would I like to have lost more, heck yeah, but am I happy I'm down what I am. I keep my calories under 800 per day, and know that all though it may not be as fast as some, it is coming off and that's the important thing.

I AM TWO WEEKS POST SURGERY AND HAVE NOT LOST ANYTHING, I CAN NOT TELL YOU HOW THAT MAKE ME FEEL????????? WHAT I DO HAVE IS A LOT OF LEG EDEMA ANYONE PLEASE HELP!!!! ELAINE R

Hello Elaine, Are you walking? Are you drinking your water? Were you on blood pressure pills before surgery? I left the hospital 12 lbs heavier than when I went in because of the liquids they pumped into me. I had a problem with water retention for the last year. 3 days of my blood pressure pills and lots of walking took care of the 12 lbs of liquid plus 9 more. Best week post-op. If you are doing the 1st two religiously, call your doctor. They will probably be leary of giving you a diaretic so early post-op for fear of dehydration, but you never know unless you ask. Dawn
