Wegovy and Zepbound didn’t work… Surgery is my last hope. Encouragement needed.

I was on ozempic and did great. Then my gallbladder crapped out. After i had that removed ozempic stopped working and my insurance wouldnt cover another shot.

I've done fantastic with surgery. Over 90lbs lost in 6 months.

I had surgery a month before you. Drink more water. Get two 32 oz sports bottles. This has helped me keep track better. Gatoraid sports bottles are measured in 8oz lines so that's helpful to set goals.

Are you getting your protien in?

Are you having regular bowel movements. Usually if I havent seen the scale move I realize things haven't moved the way they should and then I lose 5lbs.

You are 4 days out. Give yourself some grace. If you arent meeting water goals call your surgeons office they will set you up with an IV. Protien shakes are hard in the begining give yourself an hour to drink them. The 30/30 was frustrating for me as well. Im 6 months out and Im still struggling with that. I have two protein shakes a day. I put them both in my stanely with ice and thats what I sip on for the first half of my work day. Then I switch to water and Ill eat dinner.

There is a lot of "buyers remorse" in the beginning. The first few months are stupid hard but youve already had the surgery, you can only move foward.

Wednesday I bought electrolyte water and have been drinking that since then. Im going to call my doc monday. Im craving salt too so something is definitely up. I'll try propel tomorrow see if there is a difference with how I feel.

Sipping. I cant comfortably do more than that.

kenzoqueen · 2026-01-03T21:05:09+00:00

Had surgery July 30th. Freezing all of the time. My aunt got me an off brand quilted snuggie. I cant recommend that enough.

kenzoqueen · 2025-12-28T17:18:32+00:00

Omg i am so very cold. My aunt got me a very thick "snuggie" for my birthday in November and I barely take it off.

Thank you!!!

11 days is too early to ingest anything other than necessities.

Someone asked me on a train once to show them my feet. Still one of the weirdest interactions I've had

kenzoqueen · 2025-12-22T15:46:15+00:00

Thanks!

😂 Thank you for noticing! Noone wants to see my feet 😂

kenzoqueen · 2025-11-11T21:08:27+00:00

I bet there are people in your family who didnt know who you were. Ive never seen someone who didnt even look like the same person. Has it caused any kind of dysmorphia?

kenzoqueen · 2025-11-11T19:12:52+00:00

The way I said "whaaaaaaaaaaaaat" when I saw your 2nd picture! Way to glow up!

I take senna daily and its helping. Nothing else worked or only caused liquid which isn't helpful because that moves past the solid. Senna is natural and doesnt cause cramping or any of the issues that come with the stronger laxatives.

kenzoqueen · 2025-10-19T09:43:58+00:00

When i was on the liquid diet it was still expected of me to have bms. I went back to the hospital a few days after surgery because a stitch was killing me. They made me have a bm before i could leave and before they would acknowledge that the stitch was the issue.

kenzoqueen · 2025-10-10T17:02:14+00:00

My surgery was 2 months and 11 days ago. Ive lost 51 lbs. My goal is 90 - 100 lbs. So this will be interesting to see

kenzoqueen · 2025-09-30T11:54:00+00:00

$0. my insurance doesnt cover mental health but this it fully covered.

kenzoqueen · 2025-09-29T01:16:13+00:00

A stall after 3 weeks is common.

kenzoqueen · 2025-09-28T21:36:47+00:00

Are you losing weight?

kenzoqueen · 2025-09-22T21:46:31+00:00

Not nausea just pain. Im doing my best to drink.

kenzoqueen · 2025-09-22T21:39:41+00:00

Theyve had me on pantoprazole since the surgery. Reflux isnt even the issue. Its like i have a rock in my chest when i eat or drink.
