I have lost 19 lbs in 10 days....that seems REALLY high to me when my docs range is 60-90 and my goal is 100? 10 days?
Can you lose too much too fast? I haven't had a BM in about 4-5 days either...is that normal? I am on the soft foods plan and have had cottage cheese, chicken salad, chicken and noodles, salmon, and peaches so far. I drink a protein shot with water added throughout the day to help get more protein in and "chew" cups of ice in between meals. I feel great...really good and don't show any signs of dehydration, starting to read my body to know I need to drink or eat, started working out 20-30 mins but still worried I am losing too much too soon.
I know it will slow down or stall out at some point and I am still in the recovery stage technically. I have my first follow up appt with my surgeon in 2 days so will be asking him too but still....anyone else experience this?
The only thing is I am still having unbelievable pressure in my esophagus after eating or drink too fast...like the food can not get into my stomach and just sits there. Last night was the worse but I KNOW I ate too fast. Once its in my stomach I am fine but getting there has been a pain. Really hoping that goes away soon
So far so good....but time does seem to be crawling by LOL
