What Is The Average Weight Loss In The First 4 Weeks?
ChubbyGal posted a topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I am traveling 4 weeks after surgery and I am hoping to have my new eating regiment somewhat worked out. I know there will be a lot of trial and error as well as new eating habits. I was also hoping to have lost a little before my big trip! Any advice?? -
Good to hear things went so well. My surgery is in a few weeks, so I am anxious to hear about other newbies experiences. Sounds like you are doing great!!! Keep us posted.

What Is The Average Weight Loss In The First 4 Weeks?
ChubbyGal replied to ChubbyGal's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Thanks everyone! Yes, I will be on liquids for the first 10-14days and I am sure I will be just starting mushies then a little solids while I am traveling. I really wanted to have this done at least 6 weeks before I left, but it did not work out that way. I could not get on the surgery schedule any earlier. I am just happy that it is finally happening, so I will take what I can get!! -

It is only 3 weeks until surgery. I am excited but also a little nervous. I have been trying to lose a little weight before surgery and it is not going very well. I have my pre-op visit in 1 week. I am hoping they will give me a strict pre-op diet so I can get my body ready and possibly lose a few pounds before I start this journey. Does anyone have any suggestions to help me prepare???

Thanks everyone!!! I will try to start walking more and i have been really pushing myself to drink more water/fluids. i struggle with this!!

I am curious to know what type of pre diet i will be given. I go Next Tues. to find out. I also would love to try to lose 10 -20 lbs. before surgery. Good luck with everything and let me know how your liquids are going when you get started!!

My surgery is June 6 and I start my liquid diet next week. Please Please offer me any suggestions. I have tried to start by drinking a protein shake for breakfast and eating a low calories small lunch, but next comes just liquids. Give me strength!!! Good luck every one!!!

Feeling Bummed
ChubbyGal replied to krazykristy1998's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Don't stress it will all work out!! Call first thing in the morning and get the ball rolling with the Dr. You were lucky they went ahead and scheduled your surgery. I had to wait until everything was approved before they would schedule it. Sending lots of positive thoughts and prayers your way!! -
Pre Op Optifast/ Liquid Diet Diet
ChubbyGal commented on shannons27's blog entry in shannons27's Blog
Hi, my surgery is in 3 weeks and I have my pre-op visit next week. I am very nervous about the pre-op diet.What are you eating and how many calories are you allowed per day?? I guess I am not sure what optifast is??? Good luck with your surgery and keep up the good work with your pre-op diet. Please give me any suggestions that you have that will help me to be strong and on the right track. Best of luck over the next few day!!!
