I was never told to lose any amount of weight in my 3 months of supervision but I did lose about 25 lbs in the 4 months between my first doctor visit and my surgery day.

I went up and down throughout the six months and ended up losing a paltry 1/2 lb. I was one who had a lot of food funerals because that's how I always did it before all of my big Monday diets I started in my past. It was my final farewell to all of my favorite foods. I don't recommend it though because it kept me from getting to my goal sooner. I'm always impressed with the ones who, even though they knew help was coming, didn't give in to the food funerals and actually lost quite a bit of weight pre op.

Yes clothes fit baggy, my face, neck, shoulders, legs and arms are smaller. Sent from my LG-Q710AL using BariatricPal mobile app

Love it lol

I was required by my surgeon's office to lose 10% of my total weight during the 6-month lead-in to WLS. That should have been about 26lbs. I began the program at 256lbs on my 1st weigh-in. Surgery Wt was 222lbs. I lost 34lbs on their weight loss plan.

about 40 lbs. But I was much heavier than you are..

I went from 246 to 239 during the 6 month nutrition counseling. Was 239 on the day of my bypass. Sent from my SM-N960U using BariatricPal mobile app

Thank you for your feedback. ❤️ I put tofu, vegan leek soup, and flaxseed powder in a blender. It’s very soupy. I’ll try it for the first time today. Every time I eat, I try and walk. I don’t want t get any trapped gas. That happened once and I was miserable a day and half.

You can be losing inches and not weight.
