I had my surgery 12/12 and I have lost 17lbs from then until now - only 8 days. I am losing about 1 1/2 lbs a day right now. Is that going to slow up soon? Is that too fast, something to be concerned about? I am on a liquid diet consuming around 600 calories right now because I am never hungry anymore (far difference from the few days post op where I was starved). I am not excercising but I am constantly moving, doing housework, cooking, etc. I sit down a couple of times a day but that's it. I'm not tired anymore either - I have tons of energy. Previously before the surgery I was always tired and had no energy to do anything. I'm not complaining, this is great weight loss but should I be concerned? I have 2 more weeks of the full liquid diet left. Thanks! azallboys

I have a closet FULL of clothes from 24 down to 16. I have them all catorgized towards how I remember them fitting and I can't wait to get into them again. I know everyone is different but I am having such a hard time with knowing at what weight I'll be wearing what size. I am a 26 now - 297lbs 5'10" - Did anyone keep track of what weight they were to what size they were. I didn't but do remember at 155lbs 5'10" I wore a size 8 or 10. I have no recolection of the in between. I try on the size 24's daily and they are still a no go. azallboys

I am constantly starving and on full liquid diet - any suggestions? How long until the pain is gone? When will the unanncounced loose stools stop? I can't seem to post the ticker factory - help on this? Thanks! azallboys - 316lbs goal 155lbs

My dr puts his patients on full liquids for 4 weeks. My surgery date was 12/12/07. My stomach is beyond starving - rumbling all day. The list I was given doesn't have a lot on it. My husband is getting me whey Protein powder to put in the liquids to keep the full feeling longer. What ideas for the full liquid diet do you have?
